Good morning girls. Should i be worried that it's August 15 and we have not even sent our address list to the lady who is doing our invites?
We are supposed to be sending them out the first week of Sept!

We have a little time right? the only reason it's been pending is b/c we are STILL waiting for some address's from his mom..UGH



Did the lady tell you how long they will take once she receives them? To be honest with you, I think you will have enough time to wait. When are you planning on sending out the invites?



they are in already. She is just waiting on my list.



Hi...I'm waiting an an address too. Someone who is moving next week - I emailed her for her address but I think she's busy and just hasn't got back to me. Being it's only one - I don't want to wait. I'm sending my list in today and will just have my mom handwrite this person's address...my mom has nice handwriting so it will be fine. I just want to get this done already. So you could do that too rather than wait.

You can do it! The only advice I can give is if you get a momentum going when stuffing them, don't stop!!! I kept counting down how many more I had to do. The hand cancelling was the easiest part! I actually had tears in my eyes when I handed them off. Almost like...this is really it!! We're really getting married!

Hi girls! Got my tiara this weekend! We are currently in DIY invite hell and I will be soooo glad when I can mail those suckers out. I will do cartwheels coming out of the post office. We also met with the florist this weekend to confirm our centerpieces, bo-ks and logistics of dropping everything off. It's really becoming real now!!! I'm freaking out but I am really excited at the same time.



how are the invites coming?? im sure they are going to be beautiful!!!

I spent the whole weekend stuffing...it took forever because each one we had to also double check the names and addresses against our list. Even though we checked our list 10000000x, we still found a few more errors...

I also just bought rehearsal dinner invites and my flower girl dress came in. Slowly but surely. Now if only my gown would come in.
