Re: October Girls Update
CacRmr - We should definitely make an appt for the same day - that would be so cool! WE are using all fall colors, and my centerpieces are going to be in grapevine baskets. We are doing lots of pumpkins, gourds and leaves throughout the hall as decor. I want to have carved pupmkins with our names and the dates on our sweetheart table like the one below.Girls! Don't freak out! I just made up 2 master lists, one of stuff to buy and one of stuff to do, hopefully they are going to start get smaller soon! I think it helps keep me organized (as much as possible!)

Re: October Girls Update
I have a few big things and a lot of little things to do:I gotta pick FLOWERS!! I think I found a CP I like. I put a link because the picture is huge:
CP But I still need personals.
I still have to finish the invites. They keep changing on me!! (meaning I can't choose!)
Then we have the small stuff.. jewelry, hair, Get the dress altered. I don't know if the FH has picked out his tux or not.
Oh and I guess finalizing the invite list would be good.
I need to make a list! A bunch of them I think.

Re: October Girls Update
I was very productive this weekend, I just have to share!!We booked our rehearsal dinner site, we chose our invitations and finalized the wording, I am getting ready to order them as we speak, just looking over the proofs, we ordered our toasting goblets and the GM gifts and I started to order our favors!! We also chose our readings and pretty much finalized most of the ceremony details, including our vows! I also got halfway through making my ribbon wands!!
It feels great to get so much done!!

Does anyone have a picture of a carved pumkin with names on it or do you know where we can get that done considering we're all getting married in October! TIA

Come on girl!! Get moving!!! Just think of how nice it will feel to NOT have to stress about not having things done yet. Plus, once you book the honeymoon - you can do what I do and daydream about it when you get stressed!!

OK LADIES...
I've been hiding out lately because there is just so much going on in my life, I had to take a break. I've returned to do some power wedding planning because I haven't done anything in the last two months. I feel just like you Oct.2004bride. I just can't get motivated!
I'm looking at invites now... need to do limos, and all the small stuff like table names, place cards, bm gifts, accessories etc.
I'm excited because my dress just came in and now I get to do fittings... Now it'll feel real!

Re: October Girls Update
We have just about everything under control...i am waiting for my shoes to arrive from myglassslipper.com and my fi needs to start looking at tuxes, but that shouldn't be too bad. we are just about done making the tags for the wine bottles, but i don't want to put them on with the ribbon yet for storage reasons.i'm getting more and more excited as it it approaching...i really can't wait. we still need to get our rings too, but it is going to have to wait until august when i am done with school and work.
