July '08 NEWLYWEDS chat!

4 months from today!!!!!

katrina how did your fitting go?

OMG girls. I don't know why I can't get my act together! We wanted to get our STD's out by the 11th, and haven't even finished them yet. Have all of you that are doing STD's sent them yet?

abbie dont freak out because im an early aug bride, but i sent my STDs march 4th. dont all the people coming to hawaii basically already know theyre coming though?

I'm exhausted just thinking of all I need to do, how about I just list what we've done.

 

STD's sent last year

GM/FI suits

My dress (need alterations)

Veil (may add lace to wear it as a mantilla, but may keep it as is and wear it as a drop veil)

Invites will be mailed by the end of the week

picked main entrees for dinner

booked band

booked photog

booked hairdresser (a good friend of a BM who is flying in, yay!)

booked pre-wedding hotel, honeymoon, flights

ordered shot glasses

have palm fans (ribbon handle done, still need favor tags)

have star fish (still need name/table number tags)

booked church for ceremony

selected centerpeices

 

 

Hmm, that's all I can think of for know.

well yeah, but we're doing STD's for our big fake wedding at home because it is in the summer when a lot of families with kids are on vacation, and we wanted to make sure they plan around us! we have about 200 people coming to that one, LOTS of kids!

ah..... well then yeah, you should get on that! technically for at home weddings, you only need to send STDs to people out of town, but since you have people with kids, i would say its a good idea to send them if you want everybody to come! my FMIL just ordered the STDs for mexico yesterday and will get them in 2 weeks. so dont stress, but yeah you should get those out in the next week or two.

Amy, you've got a lot of the big stuff done! Good job!

BUMPing for all the new July Brides I've noticed! How are your plans coming? What are you done with or what do you need to do still?

it went well! only minor alterations- cups, and bit off the hemline and i get to pick it up this week!
