congrats to my fellow may 31 brides!!! 4 months from TODAY!!!

i still have to get invites i am going to decide within a week

we are getting a quote today for our HM, so we'll see how it goes today

other than that its smaller that i feel i have 3 months left to do so its perefect

OHHHH and next week going to look at cakes

Ordered my invites yesterday! Finally! I designed them and Im having them printed with letterpress at a place in CA. So far so good, I hope they come out perfect!

Now I need to buy a veil, shoes, DOJ, bridal party gifts, limos, OOT boxes, find tuxes, Guest book, table numbers, etc . . .

Just smaller stuff though!

we got our HM quote too.. but FH found better airfares online.. so we booked the flight and asked Tom to help us with the rest.. and I hope that he does..

yeah i am waiting to see what the TA will quote us. I did so much research that my head was spinning but i know what prices i can get it if i do it myself so i am gonna see how his prices compare. The hotel in barcelona i think regardless we are going to book through the hotel itself bc they dont require a deposit and only after arrival you give them a CC. If we like ta's quote we'll just have him book the rest of the trip.

well i know now who i want to use. Supposed to go last weekend but other things kept coming up so we'll see.

you are going to Barcelona?? we are going to Spain too.. I remember you were considering Monte Carlo, Italy and Spain.. that's awesome!! yay!! we're going there too

the only thing i'm stressing about is hair & make-up...

ordered invites recently, and all the other major stuff is booked/done...but i feel like i still have so much to do...it's all the little things...less than 4 months to go is making me a little crazy!!

OMG really that is awesome, you'll probably get there when we're leaving hahaha. Where are you staying at? well we asked for a quote on spain and monaco

he told us about avenda (sp?) and in madrid he was still looking into.. i'm soo looking forward to all yummy food..

we're working to book HM too- we've decided on Rome & Florence just trying to find a hotel (that we'll have to book on our own) in Cinque Terre, Italy.

Besides that- we start pre cana next weekend (finally!) but it's just for Friday & Sat. / tuxes in Feb / meeting with many vendors in Feb. (flowers, RH, DOC) / dress comes in Feb. and have to buy veil (saw an amazing one that might match perfectly at the Pronovias showroom yesterday) / working on Bachelorette party w/ MOH / and then a million little details. Invites are home & going to send out by end of Feb- latest.

I feel good though! Been hard core gym (4 times last week and going for 5 times this week...)
& things are starting to come in & my dining room table has all wedding stuff on it- which I love

I'm am soooooo excited! And, it's hitting FH & I that we'll be living together in just about three months and I am just as excited for that!!!

such a lovely feeling right.. to be able to say my husband!!

I admit, I'll be sad to leave my parents' home.. I lived away while I was at college and then moved back in with them and we are sooo close..

yeah! at 12:15 i was like, 4 months from now i (might - if it starts on time) be married!!

i did a whole to do list last night during my boring class. I have a lot to do but none of it is major to me.

i can't deal with or decide on invites - i hate them ALL! and all the ones I like are like 1k or up... i might try to go this weekend to party city and look at some in person - i don't know what's wroing with me, I like break out in hives at the thought of picking out invites

it's really bad, I SO can't decide. and fh is no help. I want his input but he likes super boring/plain and i'm so sick of that and want something different.
