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

Original post by JXNOscar

Welcome to the official October thread.

This is where the '6 month girls' can chat about our weddings, how BUSY we will be this summer (summer? what summer?) and make sure we are all on track.

People are SOOO DAMN RUDE!!!!!

You give them plenty of time and stamps for the return card and still maybe 1a day if that. I mean the main family members approx 130 said yes 8 said no and 79 MIA, HELLLLLO 8/14 is my deadline and yet I am starting to freak!!!!!!!!!! I am a bridzilla and have no shame on calling these people. I already called close cousins that my parents went to all thier weddings, and HMMM do u think they would understand how a bride is....AND just send the damn thing out! Then you got the ones who u call out on and pretty much talk to them everyday, and the say ohhhh I thought u knew I was comming, or do I have to send it in. OMG! PLEASE shoot me now!

Vent over! Sorry this is getting to much now. Raise your hands if you want your damn life back to normal again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ME ME ME!





I hear you ... My mother started calling people... I have 100 cousins aunts and uncles.. I am still waiting for three of them to respond, but FH's family...

Totally different story.. only three of them responded... My date is August 25th, but still....

My mom's friend filled it out, put it in the envelope and then throw it out... She figured she could just tell my mom... HELLO... there was a $0.39 stamp on there of my hard earned money, don't throw the thing out...

Did my menus last night! (Get ready, Kara )

I'm debating about tying a gold organza ribbon around it to match my invites, centerpieces and girl's dresses - I did it this morning and liked it - although I neglected to take a picture of it!

You know, I honestly don't have the greatest menu selections, but I just thought it would look pretty on the tables

I LOVE IT!!! The leaf on the top is such a beautiful touch!!! Where would you put the ribbon if you added it? Can you take a picture? I'm not sure they could possible look better than they all ready do! You are doing some AMAZING work Kara!!!

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

OK, I am trying to get back on track. I went to my MOH/cousins house last night and we got the envelopes addressed, once i typed all the addresses into excel and we found the font, it only took about 5 minutes to print all the envelopes. I thought they all came out great, but when i got overanxious and started stuffing the envelopes when i got home from her house, i realized a few that have serious girlfriend/boyfriend name printed on the second line of the address didnt appear, so only a few have to be reprinted.

Oh, and after i stuffed a bunch, i realized i am silly b/c i dont have the stamps for the response cards yet, oh well, I tried.

THANKS SO MUCH LADIES!!! The chocolate brown cardstock I got from Michaels, the ivory paper I got at staples. The gold skeletal leaf I got at Michaels, and the leaf design on the side is from a HOLE PUNCHER!!
This is with the ribbon:

This is a tough one because I am a RIBBON FREAK, I like the ribbon but I think it takes attention away from my 2 favorite features: the leaf and the cutouts along the right side. Either way it really looks terrific!
