Re: November Brides! Please share

hmm i've gotten a lot done lately but I still have to:

buy gifts for the bridal party
wait for BM dresses to come in so they can be altered
get a bustle on my dress
meet with priest to finalize readings and music
drop off Baptismal certificates at Church
ceremony programs
meet with florist to finalize CPs
tuxes for the guys
wait for RSVPs to start rolling in
get marriage license (we're cutting this one close because FH is only flying in 2 days before the wedding. Stupid Army)
probably like 37498347534975 more things that I forgot.

but don't stress, somehow it all gets done (my motto in college) and everything will turn out perfectly! don't worry

Choose menu with RH
*Choose cake baker
*Decide on shoes and jewerly
*Make a decision/book restaurant for RD
*FH must pick out a tux
Order favors (candy/caramel apples so can't do it far in advance)
Decide on BP gifts
OOT Boxes
Decide if I want a slipper basket/order supplies
*Decide on guest transportation from hotel to RH
*Decide on hair person-AHH!
Materials for wish bowl
Get unity candle
Decide on placecards/Menus/Programs (DIY?)
Table seating
*Dance lessons (I won 2 at bridal extravaganza)
Get marriage license

and of course, tie the knot
