Re: june brides...

Im adding this to the notebook!!!! There are lots and lots of little things I know I have to do but seeing it is different!!!!!
One being to register ROFL!

Re: june brides...

There is already so much to do so I've decided to 'let go' of things that can be done for me - ie menus and table numbers will simply be handled by my RH and they will also provide the placecards, which my mom will write out.

Let's not forget the seating chart - that's sure to be a nightmare!!!
