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!!!
