Re: August brides... let's check it
Is it bad that I'm 11 days away and I'm only just making this list?
I know I have to do this but not sure what else:
Put stickers on favors Go to bank for $ (Throughout it all I've hated this!) Box all the things for RH: label, and explain where everything must go Meet with photographer: add a half hour, must have list Tell Florist 2:00 delivery not 2:30. Also, double check they have written down I want starfish on boutonnieres! Pay RH more $ this week then next give final count Put tissue paper in all the bridal party and parent gifts Confirm: Make up artist, limo, hotel for honeymoon Pack for honeymoon (next week do this) Print flight barcode Label Kid activities for RH Put together tip envelopes Final Fitting (Wednesday!!!!) Bachelorette Party (Saturday!!) Walk around the house in my bridal shoes!!!
What else am I missing?

Re: August brides... let's check it
The August girls are such slackers.
I can say that I checked off - veil (although it won't come in until August 13), headpiece, hair person, and trial all last weekend.
At least I don't have to worry about those.... making menus is my next big challenge - I'm waiting on finalizing my menu this Thursday.

Re: August brides... let's check it
I'm nervous about everything coming together day of. We had to make some cuts recently, and I worry things will look too cheap now. Not too worried about everything else though.

Re: August brides... let's check it
Im nervous about things working out and the weather being nice! I'm not really worried about anything else. FH and I have been living together for a while, so i'm not nervous about the getting married part. We don't really see how our daily lives will change much, ya know.

Re: August brides... let's check it
Also, i want to start looking up the weather but am nervous to do so... i really need it to be NICE outside bc everything i have invisioned is OUTSIDE
Im not nervous, i'm sure i'll be when i'm saying we're a 'week' away. I m describing myself as in denial right now. NOT denial that we're getting married but that its finally here. I've spent the last year and a half planning a wedding. Now that it's almost here you look back and think wow, that went fast.

Re: August brides... let's check it
I know I am new to this site, although I’ve been stalking it for a year. I am FREAKING out with how fast the wedding is approaching. I’ve had a two year engagement but now I’m looking back and wondering where all the time has gone. What are we going to plan for after the wedding?! LoL. I definitely won’t miss some of the stress but it has definitely been fun. I am an emotional roller coaster with the wedding coming. Crying one day, so excited the next.
Still to Do: -Bathroom baskets -Finish Programs -Wrap Briday Party gifts -Buy/Wrap parents gifts -Table numbers -Tags for favors -Finalize song list -Drop off rings -Pack for honeymoon (yaaaaay) -Pay the RH (ugh) -Put together tip envelopes -Pick up my dress -Another hair trial Friday -Drop everything off at the RH -Drop off the OOT bags at the hotel
As the day goes on I can always find more things to add. And the wedding nightmares are getting OUT OF CONTROL!!!
