Pick readings Make programs Final meeting with priest, band, etc... Do seating charts Placecards Get labels for winebottles (favors) Put wine in organza bags Stop, breathe, maybe get a massage Drink Fittings for dress Wrap bm gifts OOT bags Mail remainging RD invites Final hair trial
I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff. I didn't mind the 'big' things. All the little details are starting to drive me nuts!!!!!!
