Re: What do you still have to do?

- I have to do placecards and table numbers (I have my template, just need to do it!!).
- I have to send out the rest of my invites!! I am doing them in groups of 30 so the post office can hand cancel them without attitude.
- I need to finalize the dinner menu and finalize my cake. I have narrowed the cake to 3 choices.
- The OOT baskets.
- Meet with the DJ about what music we want.
- Finish our dance lessons for our first dance.
- Order parents' gifts.
- FH needs a tux.
- I need a hair trial (had the makeup one already).

I'm stressing!

Some people call it a wish bowl, but really is like an advice bowl. Is where your guest write their good wishes or advice towards your marriage. Some do the wish bowl instead of the guest sign in book.

What's a bathroom basket? Is it the same thing as an OOT basket filled with water, cookies, chips and other edible goodies for people who are staying at the hotel?

Re: What do you still have to do?

I have more than I can list. You know that whole, million item long, super to do list that's on here? I have like 5 - maybe 10 items crossed off. I only booked/started planning in mid June, and we already had our officiant back out so if I were to make a to do list, I'd be really depressed! It will all get done and if I can do it, you guys don't even have to worry about finishing your lists!

A bathroom basket is a basket that you place in the bathroom with toiletries you think your guest will need.......pins, hair spray, sanitizer, pads , etc. Sometimes the hall might provide it for you and some times you have to provide it. It is not a must have, but it makes a nice detail for your guests

Re: What do you still have to do?

It's easier to answer it this way...the only thing we have done is booked our RH. We've started the process on others (photographer,etc) but nothing else is completed.
