Re: September 08 Brides
There isn't much more we have to do just odds and ends! And the marriage license! And I am making my card box as we speak! :)
Our biggest issue is the RSVPS'S!!! Deadline is next Friday and we still have 60 something invites still out there. We did do a final count with the people we know are coming but haven't sent it back yet! We have a tital of 105! We need to reach 135! At this point I'll take a verbal! I just need to know how many more we have to send out!!!

Just have to vent...how come the people that you know are definites are the first ones to respond and the people you're not sure of never do??!! Are they trying to hide that they're not coming to your wedding?? Ummm, you're going to have to tell me eventually!! Let's not beat around the bush here!
I know, people are so brutal!!! Our RSVP date is August 6, how hard is it to send back an RSVP!? And really, if you can't make it, no big deal, just let us know!!
My RSV date was July 19th and I was still receieving them until this weekend, but this is my cut off date so if I recieve anything after 8/2/08 I'm sending them back. I know that sound mean but I just can't wait for these people taking their sweet little time. I have other things to think about and do.
How will you send them back? I am intrigued by this.
I didn't figure that one out! but thank god I didn't have to play mean this time because that one on saturday was the last one I received.

Re: September 08 Brides
Oh my girls.... how funny this thread started when we had 4 months to go and now its less than a month for some of us. AAHHH! luckily mine is the end of September so i'm trying my hardest to get most of everything done by the end of this month so I can relax next month... have a feeling though that that won't be happening. Good luck girls and congratulations.

Re: September 08 Brides
I cant wait until this month is over the stress is killing me I got a lot done since my last post. the bridesmaids gifts are done tomorrow I go to the villa to pick the food and I am in the process of finishing the favors and menus. a picture of my favors
21 days till my wedding and my MOHs dress is still not in. \ She ordered back in March. Should I be worried? My MOH has lost a lot of weight. I know they told me they can rush the alterations and do it in a week. They still don't know when it's coming in.

I am a week after you at the same place. Did you do the menu yet? I was told that we can drop our stuff off on the 11th. We got the marriage license this past Tues and still have some diy to do but it is coming along. i think we will be fine.

Re: September 08 Brides
I just went to see another sample of my flowers and i love them. I just got my favor labels so I can finally finish them. I brought my shoes to be dyed today. All last minute boring crapola to do. I keep reminding myself that it will all be over soon. I also ordered chinese slippers on line this week and also ordered my signature plate. I see the end in sight. Good luck ladies. These last few weeks should be fun.
