I am soo excited. I got fabric to make my own cardbox. I am not crafty at all so i guess this is why i am extremely excited b/c i am going to attempt to make something for my wedding!

I will post pics when its done.

How is everyone?

-finalize menu
-finalize flowers
-meet with DJ to finalize music
-buy parent gifts
-buy groomsmen gifts
-print and assemble programs
-meet with priest to go over ceremony
-send out rehearsal dinner invites

Re: Official March 08 Brides Thread

no one would even know unless you send them to the same family grouping.

I just realized what I haven't done is:
Get my sample centerpiece - Feb 3rd
Get a final person to do hair - possibly this week doing that
Get the flower girl dress in - sometime next week
All the girls still need to do their first fitting

Need to get marriage cert - feb 15th
Need to organize paper work to change name over
Need to meet with the guy who is marrying us
Need to meet with DJ sometime in Feb.

Need to finish scanning in photos for video
Need to do favors, place cards seating chart, wrap bp gifts and organize everything going to the catering hall.

So yes there is lots to do.

Oh and pick a veil out IoI
