Re: MAY Girls - freaking out!

Hello date twin - I am freaking out right along with you! But I don't seem to have as many things to do - this is because I am lazy and have chosen not to do certain things

I still have to:
-Get passport (not booking HM until after the wedding)
-Order favors
-Meet with photographer
-Go back for final fitting
-Get marriage license
-Book transport for me and DH, as well as a hotel room
-Do hair and makeup trials (doing this stuff myself)
-Make LOTS of payments

Re: MAY Girls - freaking out!

I still have a LOT to do but I am making amazing progress the past few days.. Over the weekend we started the favors, and FH got his passport. Today we got the tuxes. Tomorrow we are picking our menu at the RH and seeing our sample CP and on Weds I will hopefully make a lot more progress with the favors! This is soo not like me because I always do everything like the day before..

We still have TONS to do like picking out music, doing a card box, our LOVE letter, menus, programs, etc etc but for once I feel like I am getting stuff done!

Re: MAY Girls - freaking out!

I think all I have left to be done is

I just cant loose or gain any weight because my dress fits perfect now since my last dress fitting.

Re: MAY Girls - freaking out!

I have so much stuff to do that I don't even want to make a list I'm very oddly in a calm state, though. I'm at the point where I think everything will come together and if it doesn't, whatever!

Re: MAY Girls - freaking out!

Hey Stef!! Don't freak, it's all doable!! One thing though, I don't know where you are getting your shoes dyed, but mine took exactly 2 weeks from when I dropped them off. Just a heads up, and that was at Sandy's Shoes in Massapequa.
