Re: Just an update! How's everyone doing?

I just have my hair, make up (which I might be doing myself), not the hair the make up....and my honeymoon. Which I'm leaning towards Aruba. I can't book the honeymoon yet it's too soon for flight pricing.

everything else done. Oh wait...invitations....

except for the last minute stuff like undergarments and shoes (which might be bridal sneakers)

I think that is pretty much it.
