Veil, headpiece (but I think I know what I want)

Re: June/July Brides CHECK IN!

I've knocked off so much stuff in the past week!

- Mom got her dress
- I found and bought the flower girl's dresses
- Ordered tuxes
- Ordered invitations
- Figured out what to do about favors (now just gotta put them together)
- Bought present for my dad (father of the bride cufflinks, woohoo!)

And today I bought a couch! Now we just have to find an apartment to put it in.
