Nov 08 brides

I rcvd my starfish yesterday!! I order a few knobby ones for the guys bouts and I order the white pencil starfish for the placecards....they reek, I have to air them out this wknd and pray the smell goes away!! I hope to order my invitation paper this wknd so i can get started on the also. Ive held off on OOT stuff bc I dont know how many other people are going to book...I wish i knew already so i can get some stuff out the way. bummer!

Steph - goodluck tomorrow. I think it's really sweet that you are using your parents cake cutter. That's a great idea.

Jessica - where did you get your starfish from? I'm debating on ordering some to put on the programs.

May you all have wonderful weekends full of fun and just a little bit of wedding preperation productivity!

Celina! I read your other post about your family drama and oh my goodness I am so terribly sorry!! BIG HUG!!! You poor thing!

I just reading through the posts to see when you guys sent out your invites....have all o fyou already sent them out? And it looks like most of you gave 6 weeks for a response? Is that standard?

I was planning to send them out the first week of July, but now I'm thinking I need to get on things and send them out earlier! Yikes!

So, I had food poisoning or a stomach virus or something, and I'm finally keeping food down, but I am drastically dehydrated. FI drank the last of the gatorade yesterday, so I sent him out to get some more. He, of course, came home with a 1 gallon jug that I don't imagine we'll ever finish. The thing is huge!

But I just got up to pour another cup and the expiration date is November 22, 2008. That's 7 days after my wedding date.

1) I'm freaked out that a refrigerated product for consumption lasts that long, but 2) I cannot believe that my wedding date is so close that there is a perishable food item in my house that expires around that time! Holy crud!

Haha Opice that is funny!! And so true To answer your question I haven't sent out my invites yet. I know if i send them out now they will just get forgotten and no one will respond to them. I think my plan is to send them out July 1st or so and put the RSVP date by Sept 1st? Or something to that effect.. maybe August 15th.
