I don't think there is one, but this is dedicated to all the August brides. It's a place to talk about our deadlines, and everything about our wedding.

Let me start. I was just thinking, I plan on ordering my BM dresses around Jan/Feb so that means Fall 07 and Spring 08 will already be out.

Re: ~~~Official August 08 Thread~~~*

We met with our deacon last night and planned out the entire ceremony. I got so emotional picking all the readings and things...I never knew you got to pick EVERYTHING!

Invites get mailed this weekend. Hair trial next weekend. Then it's just:
place cards & seating arrangements,
finish BM gifts,
programs,
and my fittings.

I think. Hmmm anything you think I might be missing??

This RSVP thing is stressing me out so much... my RSVP date is next Friday the 27th, and we still have over half the people left to RSVP... about 190ish... what the hell is wrong with people?? Not only did I send them out over a month ago, but they had save the dates since December, they should know by now if they are coming!!

Ok, had to vent...

Re: ~~~Official August 08 Thread~~~*

Hi again ladies!

I am having a busy week! My mom tried on her dress and got shoes-scheduled her 1st fitting.

BM dresses are in (finally!!! ) my sister tried hers on today and scheduled fitting-going with my bm LB and sister on Friday. Then we have to pick shoes for bms.

Finished bm gifts and FH finished gm gifts. I even wrapped mine already so they're done!

Got a hold of some vendors-still have to contact photographer and limos.

Waiting on ribbon to finish my card box.

Wine labels are on their way and so we'll shrink wrap the foil piece and then favors will be done.

We have about 35% of RSVPs and the date is 2 1/2 weeks from now. I am a little worried that there will be a lot of phone calls.

Right now working on ceremony and programs. We are having a friend marry us so we'll plan out our own ceremony.

My work shower is next weekend-I'm so excited!

It's all coming along but I can't believe that there's only 51 days left!!!!
