Regarding Sending invite/RSVP date - since I am getting married over Thanksgiving Weekend, I am sending out the invites 1st week of September and (I think) RSVP date is Mid-October. I, too, want extra time to call the latecomers and give myself plenty of time to do the seating chart. I hate rushing at the end

Thats exactly what I was thinking! I want to enjoy Thanksgiving!!!!

I am also getting married in Cedarhurst, at St. Joachims, on the same day...

Im Nov 27th also. It's a good idea to get the invites out and schedule the rsvp date a little earlier! Thanks for the suggestion! I want to enjoy thanksgiving also, but I dont think I will eat! My dress wont fit!

I still have left:
-attendants gifts & gifts for parents
-Assemble invites (mine have vellum & a bow)
-Get envelopes to printer
-make sure my BM's pick up their dresses & schedule fittings
-order FG dress (this has to be done ASAP)
-finalize registries
-schedule my fittings
-order favors (I already have them picked out)
-Get casual engagement shots
-schedule hair & makeup at a salon & have trials done
-buy rings
-buy Honeymoon clothes
-get necessary travel docs for honeymoon
-get marriage license
-lose weight (lots of it)
-buy undergarments
-get jewelery that matches dress
-get headpiece & veil
-make list of must have photos
-make music list for DJ
-finalize menu
-figure out if I wantto do programs & do 'em if yes
-do menu cards
-seating charts.

And i think thats it, but I'm sure I'll think of more.
