Finally booked the Photographer and Videographer!! Sending out the deposits tonight. My poor bank account is going to be so empty!
Now I'm onto Save the Dates and Invitations! Is anyone 'Do-it-yourselfing' these? Just curious to know if it's a giant pain in the *** or not. I'm not too patient or artistic so I don't know if I should even make the attempt. Suggestions?

Re: Check and Check!!!
Yay! Congrats!! Who are you using??
I was thinking about DIYing these but like you said it seems like a huge pain in the @$$! lol I'm probably going to use this site called indianweddingcards.com. The prices are very reasonable and they have a lot of non-indian designs as well!

We're using White Pear Photography and Fade to Black for video. I couldn't be happier with my choices! They're both amazing and so easy to work with.
Thanks for the tip. I'm def. going to check them out when I get home. Also, I just found out that Costo has discount STD's and Invites through wedding paper divas. I'm going to check it out later and see if it's worth it. It might be easier than the stress and trial & error of DIY.

Congrats!
STD's are very easy to DIY. I used Magnetstreet, i know a lot of girls have also used Vistaprint.
Invites however are another story. I wanted to DIY but when I got the sample materials I got so overwhelmed. Check out the pics in my album and let me know if you want any info. The prices are really great and they can recreate anything you want.

Congrats on the checks! I am not a DIY girl so much so I can't help there.

Thanks girls!
I think I can manage DIY STD's but from everything I've read, DIY invites seem to be a nightmare. But one thing at a time I guess. Let's see how the STD's go first and we'll take it from there. FH is going to looooove the project I have in store for us this weekend...lol.

yey congrats!
As far as STD's, we went digital with punchbowl.com. Figured we'd save $50-100 doing that. The great thing about Punchbowl is that guests can enter their name and contact info on a list as 'attending,' and receive email alerts when changes have been made.
When it comes to the actual invitations, we were thinking of magnets. I know they're more traditional with STD's, but we're trying not to waste paper.
