Hey Everyone...so this was the last DIY project on my list and after humming and hawing I found Beck's Welcome book post and took inspiration from her. I haven't taken photos of the book but actually had it printed at Staples. For $40 I got 25 books with 10 pages in each. It was super simple especially with their uploading option online. Initially I was going to try and print them myself in colour but ended up choosing to print on coloured paper in black ink. The inside pages are soft pink and the cover is in colour in ivory. They were able to make a booklet for me that is half the size of a normal sheet of paper. Instead of coiling binding which would have been an extra $3.00 a book I went for two staples and they came out wonderfully! Here is a PDF of the word document that I submitted. I will post pics when I get back...I can't believe we leave in two days!!!

I'm still waiting to receive him...I hope he comes soon! We leave on Saturday! Do you have any idea about when he should be arriving *kellis*? I'll be very gentle with him and pack him in my carry-on!

Well Date Twin...let me be the first to congratulate you on your amazing planning! It's been so fun to share and see all that's involved in planning a wedding! I know you're day will be fantastic! Best of luck Jannae!

Isn't that the way...I had a moment last night working on my welcome books...I saved both parts, shut down the computer, came back later and only half had saved After a bit of panicking and cursing, I figured out it had saved somewhere else! In just 11 days we'll be married ladies! I know you're wedding will be wonderful! It's been super sharing with you over the last year...Good luck and can't wait to see the thread and you pictures once you're back!

It's funny...my FI is really starting to get excited...he's almost giddy these days. I think it's just hitting him we're getting married in 12 days! Just made my Welcome Booklet Tonight (going to Staples to see about printing tomorrow) and we finished our speeches! Bachelourette Party tomorrow night...should be a blast!!

WOW! So helpful! Just created my own tonight...I'm a little braindead about printing double sided so I think I'll just include individual pages, single sided! I'll post pics once I'm done...thanks a million!

Check out mine...it's in my siggy! I wrote it one afternoon in May and have been filling in the blanks. When I posted that it was like the wedding planning was officially done...not adding any more. Field Trip today and then play day tomorrow!!

Thanks for posting the list!! I knew I saw it somewhere before...I'll be a married woman two weeks from today!! Can't believe it!! I started packing my bag this week....so excited! Now if I can get through the last four days of school

Not fitting into my dress: worst nightmare!
