-Finalizing guest list and putting invites together.
-Going to send envelopes to inkspun.com (as soon as the guest list is finalized - but we keep adding more people ARGH!!)
- Just found out my flower girl needs a dress (she was going to wear her communion dress but her mom just told me it probably won't fit her in a few months).
-Trying to figure out where to go on our honeymoon
-Tuxes
-Wedding party gifts
-Favors (designing labels for wine bottles)

I was fine when we still had 5 months to go. Now that its in the 4 month range I'm starting to flip out!

Oooh flower girl dress, I need to do this with my FG and her mom!

We still have a LOT of time.. When are you sending your invites?

Planning on sending invites mid to late July (haven't figured out the exact date yet - I'm kind of stresing over the right timing). Our RSVP date is 9/10. I guess if they are deliverd by the first week of August that should be good? What do you think? (I'm a little bit worried that people will get them too soon and throw them in a mail pile on their desks and forget about it )

Should be fine... I hoping that my guets don't do that either.....Our RSVP date is 9/1

I'm working on finalizing invitations/prepping addresses, helping my FH find tuxes, finding a card box, bridal shoes and 'undergarments', ceremony music.

Re: October brides....

Finally getting around to flowers, still haven't booked anyone. Putting invites together, and getting guest list set. I just wish October was here already, I'm tired of planning!

Re: October brides....

I am trying to figure out hair and makeup now...and getting the materials needed to DIY the OOT baskets, placecards, programs, etc.

Also trying to find a place for the RD.

Re: October brides....

Planning RD,
getting the OOT bags and bathroom baskets together,
working on guest transportation
tuxes
flower girl dress
mob dress
undergarments

having some issues with invites :( hopefully getting final proof today or tomorrow so we can send them out in early july. we have a lot of international guests and want to give them plenty of time to decide whether they want to come.

also, stressing about finding a job, and moving back to LI from 7 years in Maryland.

Re: October brides....

Ohhhhh I am seriously starting to freak!

I have to START designing my invites so I can send them to the printer...I meant to start working on that weeks ago!

I also need a veil! I feel like I'll probably ending up buying the (extremely expensive) one at my first fitting that I tried on and loved when I bought my dress at Kleinfeld.

Re: October brides....

1. Card box, version 3.0 (version 1.0 FH said 'wasn't formal enough', version 2.0 was his idea and was a plywood box, version 3.0 will be photos....pix to come when it's done).

2. Tux colors (again with the FH veto)

3. Invites (final proof should be in tomorrow with mock up on Sat!!!!)

4. OOT bag contents

5. Trying not to panic that we only have a little over 3 1/2 months left

Re: October brides....

I was planning on having my RSVP date be 9/2, but my planner suggested having it either the week before or after since that's labor day weekend. People will most likely be off having fun and might forget to send their rsvp in on time... :(
