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.

you just have to have faith that it will ll get done! go enjoy yourself in AC!

aww thanks!!!!

it will get done...just might take some late nights

maybe all the august brides should get together on day, drink and wrok on the stuff they have left to do, like programs and place cards and such. then as we get drunk we can gripe and vent about everything!!

hahah that's a good idea...i can only imagine how lovely my programs, etc would look if i made them after a couple drinks

I'll be honest, the wedding stress has really set in this weekend, i feel sick and all i want to do is sleep. Not a good thing when you have a billion other things to do

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

That sounds like a good idea. I will definitely be cracking open a bottle of wine to do seating charts.

I finally had my shower-it was the best. I loved every second of it.
This week I'm going to get some gifts for my family and friends because they did such an amazing job this weekend.
I didn't get anything to wear the day of while getting ready so today I'm going to pick that up
I am going to work on shower thank yous
Do my seating chart/placecards
Make an appt for airbrush tan
Drop off bm shoes to be dyed
Work on program fans

Not too much left to do!!!!
19 days left!!!!

oktom22 Posted: Jul 21, 2008 10:41 AM

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

Whooo hoo!!! I had my shower this weekend too

I still have to do our programs
Unity candle
Unity candle holder
Make appt w/ DJ
Shower thank you's
Finish BM gifts
Get parents gift and special one for Mom.

Select menu and finalize for RD and post-wedding brunch.

And probably a bunch of other things I'm forgetting...

I'm right there with you...my shower was last weekend, bachelorette this past...but suddenly on Friday I started to get a bit tense and worried...and it's only getting worse...there is just SO much to do...

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

I know, when I see that it is 31 days away I start sweating and getting heart palpatations. I can only imagine what I am like at 14 days or 2 days even. I am trying my best to enjoy it, but it is easy to get caught up with everything...

well the house we were going in to contract for fell through, then i started doing seating cards and looking at all the paper work from the fox hollow and started having anxiety about alot of things, also my uncle is REALLY sick, all the docotrs are surprised he is still with us, which makes things tricky for the upcoming wedding...

I can't believe I'm only 24 days away...I have so much to do!

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

Ladies!!! It's almost our month!!!!!!! I am so surprisingly calm it's ridiculous! Fh and I finally did our seating chart which was probably the thing that I was worried most about. I am finishing up shower thank yous. Tomorrow I have my 2nd fitting and then I'll be finishing my programs and OOT boxes. Saturday I drop off the final payment with my florist. I started packing for the hm too. Fh thinks I'm crazy but I'm not sure he knows how much clothing and pairs of shoes I own. I can't believe its so soon.

Oh yeah and I'm starting a new job in the fall so of course next week I'll be meeting with HR. How did I know this was going to fall right in the few weeks before the wedding. Somehow I'm confident that I'll get it all done. Probably because I have you guys to vent to. How is everyone doing???

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

OMG 1 week left for me. I am going to have a VERY busy week ahead of me. My final fitting is tomorrow. I just finished my OOt bags I just need to fill them. Almost done with my menus and I will be spending Saturday doing my place cards...seating is practically finished. My head is spinning

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

Uggh I'm not doing well at all... i'm 25 under my min, i'm not even home to do anything and calling my mom up whenever I think of something that needs to be done, I still have to do seating after I figure out our official guest list... and I'm studying for the most important test of my life on Tuesday, my pharmacy licensure exam (NAPLEX) and freaking out about it!

I won't be back in NY till Saturday August 2nd, and then i'll have 50 million things to do before the wedding...
