OCTOBER ladies, come on in! This thread is for us!!!!!!

I was freaking out too, so I looked this up on theknot.com

Order:
Three to four months before the wedding date. The sooner you order them, the more time you'll have to proof them, make any changes, and address the outer envelopes (a calligrapher, for example, requires up to two weeks to address 100 invitations).

Send:
Six weeks before the date is the most common; eight weeks is ideal (10 weeks for guests coming from abroad). You have more leeway if you send save-the-date cards first.

Ok, my dress is in!

I ordered my cute lil matches on Tuesday!

I am getting an invite sample today so I should be able to order by Monday!
(this also applies to my photocube and placecards, same vendor!)

Fi suggested going to look at tuxes tonight, (yes, HE actually suggested it)

When adding something to my registry, I noticed some stuff came off!

Saturday: Going with FMIL for a dress, hopefully she picks one by the end of the weekend!

Sunday: Going to my tasting, yummy!!!

Seems I am really getting married or something

OK so I went to Georgettes yesterday, there was a line but it went pretty quick.......SO excited I got my bra for the wedding, the last even said I was wearing the wrong size bra, so was like OH NONO honey u need a 40DD I am like what where! haha ! But she was right the bigger bras fit better and more confy!

THANKS GEORGETTES! LOVE U GUYS!

My lovely MOH has so kindly volunteered her new DH to do the computer calligraphy on my invites. Yay, all I need to is get her the list and bring the envelopes over

We went searching for a dress yesterday, we are trying to get MOH dress off the rack since I only have her in my BP but so far, no luck, we are going to Estelles during the week to see if we can find anything there.

Good Luck!! My Mom finally ordered a dress and htey said 'It's 10 weeks till your wedding - we'lll have to put a rush on it....' I was thinking TEN WEEKS!!!? I want a re-count!!!

Hey ladies, I have some updates on my planning finally

UPDATES:
Wedding bands ordered
FG dresses ordered
wedding night booked
Dropped off another chunk of money to hall


STILL PENDING:
Invitations
still waiting on FH side

I think I had my This-Is-Really-Happening epiphany this weekend - I booked the rd on Friday, my shower was Saturday (it was FANTASTIC by the way!), also Saturday was the 3 months to go mark, and I'm picking up my invitations tomorrow ......
THIS
IS
REALLY
HAPPENING
!!!

kittythestray... when are you sending out your invites????????

---

I am PRAYING I can get them out Friday - I had problem with printing the envelopes so the invitation company is going to do it for me as a rush, they say they can have them to me tomorrow & then I have to stuff them, etc...

Yay for all the ladies that got things accomplished this weekend

I picked up my invites and started to type in all of the addresses now i just need to proof them before i start printing them out

We got a quote on a florist and ordered our wedding bands.
