There seems to be quite a few of us that are getting married that first weekend of Nov, I thought we could have a thread just for us! Come on in ladies and lets see what you have been up to and what still needs to be done.

I have an invite question: it's a stupid one but I'll ask it anyway--I bought leaf seals to stick on the backs of the envelopes (outer ones of course) that doesn't get me out of gluing them all, right?
I got the leaf seals too !!!!!

I by mistake checked my registry and someone went nuts on my Williams-Sonoma Registry. Almost everything was bought Someone spent a lot of money

A friend of mine got engaged & her e-party is the day before my wedding! Would it look bad if I didn't go or if I just went for an hour or so. She is comming to my wedding.

I think you should go in the beginning for a couple of drinks. As a soon to be bride herself, she'll understand that you need to get home for your beauty rest.

I agree as well. As long as it doesn't interfere with any pre wedding stuff, then go for an hour or so. It may help you relax.

Oh good Lord!!! You poor thing! that is horrible!! I'm so sorry! Wish I could help! You're putting in the #?
If it makes you feel any better--we are STILL trying to figure out the guest list! LOL Have most of them stuffed and ready to go--but there are those 'B' list people, that we just aren't sure about-

My parents are driving me insane with this!! Everyday it's more people but we just can't add anymore. 318 is all I can handle
I finished putting the numbers on them. So many people said it's a good idea. It is just a good back up. A lot of my FI's family has the same first and last name

I did the numbers too. I think it will just make life easier in the long run. I can also then know that my responses will be organized in the same order as my guest list that way.

I had my shower on saturday...it was AWESOME... we got sooooo many gifts... and I still have another shower on LI in september or october... I am in th process of resizing pics... but here is one pic so far...it's my mom to the left, then ME...then FH's sister Kate who is my MOH, then his other sister Kirsten whos a BM and then my FMIL... you can see my cake there as well... I am working on more pics...
How exciting! Janine you look great. Your hair has gotten so long!
I met with Rosalie from Expressions Floral & Event Design tonight. We hired her as our day of coordinator. I'm so happy!
We've had a recent bump with our planning. One of FH's friends from New Mexico backed out fo being a groomsman. I feel so bad for FH. He's so dissappointed.

I'm tossing it around. I'm thinking of making them on the computer. I'm not sure yet.

I'm sending out rehearsal dinner invites. I have this great source online. I ordered personalized note cards from her. And she has a lot of cute stock images -- or she might use my little ladybug insignia. I stole some of the wording from other peoples invites. Here's what they will say:
PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!
Please join us for Tim & Amy’s Wedding Rehearsal Dinner
Thursday, November 4, 2004
Rehearsal 6:30 pm Buffet Dinner to Follow
Island Hills Golf & Country Club Lakeland Avenue Sayville, New York
Please Respond by September 25, 2004 Amy & Tim at 631/xxx-xxxx
In terms of when to send them, I want to give people advanced notice, so I'll probably mail them out mid September.

Hello ladies!!!!
I just saw this thread. How fun...
I'm getting married 11/5 at Giorgio's. I just had my shower this past weekend too. It was on Sunday at the Three Village Inn. It was so much fun. I haven't gotten any pics back yet to post.
I'm sending out my invitations tonight. I'm so excited. I'm very glad to get those over with. We printed out our own inner and outer envelopes and numbered the RSVP cards. It took so long. But we're all done and they're going out tonight
