I totally LOL'ed when I read that but then I thought about it and thought maybe you were serious.

I'm sorry to hear this, Steve only has his sister coming, and we only have 12 guests total. I know you will still have a great time, though!!!


I started freaking out today, my WC and I have been emailing each other like crazy this week. I got so behind in planning in the last few months because I was so sick. I'll post my list when I can knock a few more things off of it, it's still too long! :-)

Ha Ha! No I was just kidding :-) We actually got our finalized budget and it's not too bad. We're really getting a lot for a little (especially compared to prices here in Dallas!)

Im so excited :-)

Gosh I havent even emailed the WC. With 2 guest... none my family. I think I will wait and see.

Today I ordered FI wedding bands AGAIN... wrong size the first time.

I am thinking about having snapfish make a picture locket of my grandma so I can put it around my flowers. its 40 bucks. I bought one from JeanM awhile ago and it looks super cheap. Anybody want it? I will sell it for 5 bucks and shipping!I think I ended up paying 20bucks!

I ordered my boudoir book from snapfish.

I got my dress back from being altered. Other than that. I almost just dont care about anything else.

Happy wedding shower day Katrina!

 

Love you! Hope you have a really wonderful day with your guests. Don't forget to post some pics later! Us other June 7th shower gals will be looking for them :-D

[Martha]

You guys are so on top of things.

 

I bought all the stuff I need to finish my luggage tags, ring bearer shell, start fan tags and ummm I think that's it!

 

 

I need to knock out my thesis so I can work on wedding stuff!

[KarmaB]

Martha- Sounds like you don't have much left to do! You're on top of things!

 

YIKES... I'm officially down to 1 month now!!! I'm feeling a combination of excitement, nerves and joy! I'm off to go do some shopping now!

[amyh]

Have fun Katrina! I want to see pics!!!

 

Martha, good for you! I need to stop complaining, you have a thesis to do and have still managed to stay on top!

 

Today's update:

 

My mom and I went to down town Los Angeles and I am soooo tired! But I purchased...

 

hair flowers and ornament, I have a hair trial tomorrow so I don't know what I am going to use.

 

My bracelet and earings.

 

Purchased hats for the GM and FI ala Judy's wedding. I thought they were so cute and since all the GM are going to take of their jackets and ties at the reception (they are planning on changing into guayaveras and flip flops), I thought it would be a great way to have them stand out.
