October Brides... Hello are you out there???

Original post by Xelindrya

Ok.. first off.. OMG where the HELL did my year go? We have what 9months at best now. NINE!!!

Ive ordered my centerpieces
I hope to order my BM by the end of this month or mid next month
I hope to order my favors by the end of this month.
I think im TOTALLY nixing the idea of STDs. But I found a site with average everyday ones for $36 for 50 seems so cheap but.... I dunno.
STILL need to set up a time for our engagement photos. I kept putting it off
Shoes? uhm oh yeah them, havent even started.
Same goes for the undergarments.
Hope to order my invitations by the end of this month or next month.

OMG where's the money coming for this stuff?

Hey Jannshari - if you read this.. On an un-snowy weekend, I'd love if you'd help me come take photos of me in my dress so I can FINALLY post my makeup/hair trial photos.

Ok.. I can't be the only one freaking out.. anyone??

Re: October Brides... Hello are you out there???

I am so unprepared!!! Here is a list of what I have done:

Church (booked the date but still have to meet with the priest....he won't be 'around' until after 2/16)
Reception Hall
DJ
BM dresses (No MOH dress....but that's a long drama filled story)

I am going to try on my 'dream dress' Friday, so maybe I will soon be able to cross another thing off my list.
I also have an appoinment with the florist in March.

I AM IN BIG TROUBLE!!! I BETTER START MOVING!!!!

Irony is.. I got a friend of mine out of the hell hole (known as my last job) and if he stays through June (of course he will) then I get $1000 before taxes of course..

That will help.

Ah, a silver lining!

Well don't feel bad, I just went way overbudget on my gown and I'm afraid to pull up that excel spreadsheet and re-work everything so I'm sooo procrastinating!!!
