Is anyone else still waiting on a lot of responses? My response date is for this Friday and I still have 82 people I am waiting to hear from! WOW I can't believe I still have so many people that have not yet responded!

Yes, and I am now 2 WEEKS past the RSVP date. I can't believe I am tracking people down. Unfortunately, we found out that we lost at least 4 RSVPs in the mail - they were sent and we never got them. How frustrating!

My response date was over 2 weeks ago, my wedding is in 18 days and there are over 20 people from whom I just never received an RSVP.

WOW - Heather that is crazy! Are you going to track these people down to see if they are coming or just assume they're not?

I cannot believe your wedding is in 18 days! So crazy!!!

We did contact everyone and got their verbal RSVPs but it's not the same...

We met with the rabbi tonight and finalized our last vendor. He's great--we're really thrilled with him.

And yes, it's crazy.....

FH & I got a lot done yesterday (we both had off of work). We got our marriage license, applied for our passports, picked out our menu with our catering hall, and then he went home and I had my hair trial (which went great). I forgot to bring a camera to share with you girls, but I am going back Nov. 11 for a second trial just to refresh her memory and make sure it is just perfect for the day of.

Re: OFFICIAL November 06 thread

Where are you guys shopping for the honeymoon? I can't find any warm weather clothes around.

Does anyone feel like they've done their final vendor appts, but still need to call all of them to go through changes/final details?

16 days to go and:
FH still needs a vest and to do tux alterations
1 more fitting for me
Shoes being dyed
apples in the welcome bag
place cards for both the RD and wedding
finalizing all the vendors
