Re: January Brides
I finalized my menu on Monday. At this point I'm waiting for the rest of my RSVP's to come in so I can make up the seating arrangements. I have to bring my dress in for my first fitting next month. My FH still has to buy GM gifts and I have to fill the favor boxes. Other than that, I'm pretty much done. The seating chart is going to be a b!tch.

Re: January Brides
No, I'm sending them on Monday. I got a little held up with everything going on with my Mom. I wasn't sure if we were going to try and postpone, etc. So I just have to finish putting them together this weekend and stamping them!

Re: January Brides
My fh and I still have to sit down and do the menu with Giorgio's, put together the favors when they come in, do out of town gift bags, I have to start going for my fittings, give a head count to Giorgio's when we get all our RSVP's back, there are a few other things that still need to be done too. Did you sit down with Giorgio's yet to do your menu?

No i haven't even thought about sitting down with them yet! It's the Friday before the wedding that the final head count needs to be in which makes me happy. Have you thought about the menu yet? Is there a tasting?

Re: January Brides
We haven't even sat down and tried to come up with ideas for the menu. Maybe my fh and I should do that. The bridal shows are were you taste there food they do not do that food tasting. Have you picked you baker yet? I still have to pick out a filling for the cake.

Re: January Brides
LOL I thought I was coming along pretty well, but reading all your posts just reminded me how much more there is to do.......my first priority is that my dress isn't in yet, as least its fitted hollow to hem so hopefully it will just need to be taken in.....the girls dresses will be in in 2 weeks, addressing and mailing invites this weekend. I can't wait to see my centerpieces that should be coming up and I think the end of the month we work on the menu :) So much to do......coming up quick :)
