The planning is overwhelming. Decision-making is nerve wrecking. I have to pick a make-up and hair stylist. I haven't even gone for trials yet. I have to book the limos and florist. I am still debating whether to have low or high centerpieces. Oh and how could I forget the honeymoon. We still didn't pick a place. But our deadline for the honeymoon is Sunday so hopefully we'll knock that out of the way. Oh yes, we need a cake too..........

They say that invitations should be sent 6-8 weeks prior to your wedding. I am the day after you and I plan on sending my invitations out the end of July, with an RSVP date of September 15.

Re: October Brides
I keep seeing that alot of Brides ordered their veil already. I wish I had thought to ask to pick one out when I picked my dress. I thought you had to wait until your first fitting.
I am trying to finish all my DIY projects now, our bubbles, pew cones, bells for tables, OOT bags, centerpieces for tables..because I don't wanna have to deal with them close to the wedding. And I am being told that I want the bows on the bubbles and bells tied too perfectly..

I kind of want to know also so I can look really cute hahaha. My mom and sisters are dead set on keeping it a suprise, I think I will catch on though I investigate hahah. I think July would be the earliest, can't wait!!!
Well I got my E-party invites and favors, and STD's from Your Invited to Celebrate on Jericho TPKE in Mineola. I am planning to go there for the invites and favors as well. She is great, very creative and prices range depengin on what you want. I'd say it's worth a visit!!
Call me lazy I can not handle ANY DIY projects hahahah

Re: October Brides

Re: October Brides
Hahhaha we need to get those invites!
I knew it was the one. It was my first day of dress shopping and it was the second gown I tried on and when the sales girl zipped me up and we both looked in the mirrow my heart dropped, she's like OMG did you feel that??!! It was great! I was relieved I was not up for looking elsewhere!
You didn't order gown yet ? Do you have any pics??
