Mrs. Q- I was thinking about doing luminaries also!! I haven't seen anyone who has used them though. I was trying to get some ideas. Which ones are you using?

Finish printing & assembling programs. Cry Packs (why I decided to do another DIY is beyong me) Seating chart & place cards. Box stuff up to be brought to hall. Final meeting with florist. Finish paying off vendors. Pack for honeymoon. Get marriage license. Finish assembling & wrapping BP gifts. Wrap groomsmen gifts.
I am sure that I am leaving something else off of this list.
