Nov 08 brides

[flygirl]

I cannot believe I just found this thread! I've been wandering the forum aimlessly and sadened by the lack of a Nov 08 thread, and here it is! I'm so excited and now so overwhelmed. I thought I was pretty under control as far as planning goes, until I read what everyone else has done. Eeekkk

What a thoughtful gift!

So I just got off the phone with a marraige commissioner and booked our legal day for 08/08/08 (my birthday and my little sis's birthday) So excited, and I have to go and meet with her tomorrow afternoon to get everything arranged for the day. How exciting. OMG, that is less than a month away!

Welcome to the Nov thread. Don't worry about what you don't have done. Just start doing things every weekend, that's kinda how we all got so much done. I actually have to start some of my project over since my computer crashed, i lost all my files. Still hoping they can be restored but its not looking good.

My goals for this weekend is to order our guestbook and sand ceremony stuff. FI and I were working on the music playlists last night for the pre-ceremony, ceremony and reception music. We are almost done with that and that was a big project. Music is really important to my FI since he used to be a drummer in a local band so he took ownership of this part of the wedding. I also need to get a couple more things for my BM swag bags, but am taking my FMIL shopping today for a dress to wear to the wedding so I'm hoping I will find a couple things. I was thinking I wanted to add in beach towels that I can get once the summer stuff starts going on clearance. They could use them, but they are also a big item that will help fill up the beach bags I got them. I want to get them some sort of case or something to put the jewelry in (my cousin is making necklaces and earrings for each of them) and also thought of possibly getting each of them a cover up to wear in Mexico, what do you think? They are already getting a personalized beach bag, picture album, Bath & Body Works gift set, jewelry, flip flops and I paid for their BM dresses.

 

Also, has anyone started to think about dress alterations? I don't know when I should make an appointment to start that process.
