I love talking about our honeymoon. We're heading to the Ice Hotel in Sweden. There is a special on the Discovery channel running on it. SO EXCITED!!!!
OMG...this sounds so exciting! How long are you going for?
We'll be in Sweden for about a week, with 3 days at the Ice Hotel. Only one night in the Ice. I figure one night of sub-freezing sleeping will be enough of an experience. The rest of the time we'll be in nearby chalets. So excited!!!

Re: ***Official March 08 Brides Thread***
I feel like I'm so behind
- Finalize Ceremony
- Menus, programs, table numbers, escort cards (I can't bear to put these in separate lines because that will really send me over the edge)
- Second (possibly third) Fitting
- Finalize song list for the ceremony and reception
- Write Vows
- Buy guestbook
- get marriage license (i swear i might actually forget to do this because i'm so scatter brained)
- seating chart
- make labels for favor boxes

Re: ***Official March 08 Brides Thread***
Ok being the first in the group I should be the furtherest along.
Calling the hall tomorrow with the final number
Got a day for dress pick up
Print out placecards (yup there are all done)
Finalize arrival times with vendors
OOT bags (but only 10 of them)
Still deciding about card bag/box
Return all my extra stuff that I bought over the planning process - I need those credit card credits!!
I'm feeling good, all that is a lot of nothing.
It's soo close!!

Re: ***Official March 08 Brides Thread***
Why is this the first time I am seeing this thread?!?!
I have no idea what I still have to do. I think I am afraid to check because I don't want to freak out. Off the top of my head:
Menus
Programs
Fittings (I have my second one on Saturday)
Place Cards
OOT Bags
Get my shoes dyed
PICK A F'N FIRST DANCE SONG!!!
And since we live in CT we have to plan to take days off so we can get stuff done during the week...
Wednesday (the 27th):
Meeting with the DJ
Getting our marriage license
Finalize with RD place
Go to church to figure out if we are even doing a rehearsal and finalize readings
ETA: Because I keep thinking of things every time I hit 'Edit Post'...![]()

Hey Irishsweetheart, If you haven't done so already ready, you might want to get your first fitting on the books at your salon. My dress was late getting in (not until the Jan 20th) and then I had to wait almost 2 weeks to get an appointment with the seamstress because of my and their schedules. Just a thought and hope to reduce the stress.
