November Brides

What do you have left to do? I feel like I have just a few things left and I know I am forgetting a million things!

Re: November Brides

I have the little detail stuff, but it feels like big stuff to me right now.
I have the following left:
-make rude people RSVP
-finalize seating after rude people RSVP
-print and put together placecandles
-finish program, have printed and put together
-wrap BP gifts
-get cards for parents and wrap their hankies once they arrive (already ordered over a month ago)
-get RB gifts
-get a thin white gold chain for my Nanny's diamond cross so I can wear it on my wedding day
-write out cards for BMs
-pack for HM
-print labels for our favors (Krispy Kreme donuts)
-write out must-have photo list
-schedule final meetings with florist, hall, photographer
-put together music and photos for video
-clean my house at some point
-print menus
-do laundry at some point
-stop Newspaper while we are on our HM
-finish table name cards (FH's job)
-finalize RD menu
plus a bunch of little stuff like buy extra pantyhose

There is probably more but that is what I have for now

Re: November Brides

We have one more Pre-Cana class to attend.
We have to:
put together our favors.
get all the guys to go for tux fitting
get all BMs to get shoes and then drop them off to get dyed after first fitting.
decide on our songs for dj.
set up time for each girl to get their hair done.
set up time for make-up girl to come over.
finalize things with each vendor.
call all the slackers who were too lazy to respond for final head count.
find out who our photographer is (we know the company but not who the individual is).
schedule appt with dentist for cleaning.
Schedule appt to get nails done.
get marriage license.
discuss ceremony music to be played at church.
put together seating arrangement.
buy bridal party gifts and parents gifts.
fill out place cards.

I'm sure I'm leaving stuff out. Thats all I can think of for now.

Re: November Brides

Hi fellow November brides. I have 23 days and counting. I am working on seating, programs, wrapping BP gifts. Oh, and waiting for 6 more rude people to decide if they are coming to my wedding or not.

Re: November Brides

I'm a November bride too...11/1/02

Sooooo much to do, so little time! Where did the past year and a half go?????????

Thanks for posting your to-do lists. They have been a tremendous help!

Hang in there, everyone

Michele, I just have to smile when I read about your 'rude people'. I'm still waiting for my MOH's RSVP!!!!!! Now, THAT'S rude.

Re: November Brides

I'm a November Bride too - 11/8. Tomorrow night we are going to finalize our menu, pick our linens and cake and pick up the seating chart so we can start putting it together. Tomorrow we will also find out what our final balance on the hall will be!!! (AGGGGHHH!!) I still have to finish my programs (ran out of cardstock!) and get in touch with my photographer to find out what's going on with my placecards (We are having a little engagement photo put on all the place cards.) I am ordering the little chocolate leaves (to go with my autumn themed favors) sometime next week. The details for the florist still need to be finalized as well! I am still waiting for 4 rude people to RSVP and TWO of our ushers have not been measured for their Tuxedos yet! Anyone stressed from just reading this??? Sorry, I needed to vent.
