HEY! we have the same date!

You are fine on timing. You will feel a lot better when you send out your invitations.

I just finished mine! I got all of my paper at Paper and more.com

They were fast and aforadable!

Hang in there!

ahhh! I've been engaged for 11 months and it always felt so far away...well not any more!

now I've feeling like it's around the corner.

I got the invitations out this week, I just need to mail all the international ones.

I have pricing on the flowers, requested pricing on the cake.

 

Next I need to do the wedding party gifts/OOT bags, guests OOT bags, find the shoes of my dreams, tailor the grooms suit, find something for my Mom to wear, order flower girl dresses, book the honeymoom, loose 15 more lbs. and execute all of it and still keep my mind!

Oh and I have 3 showers, 2 bachorette parties and 2 weddings between now and May 28th!

Thank God I found this forum, I don't think I would have made it this far with out you Ladies!

I'm tired just thinking of it!

WOW, that is a lot going on. Have faith, if you're organized you will get it all done.

The dresses may jump up on the priority list especially if anything needs to be ordered. Lots of ideas for OOT bags and wedding party gifts.

I am doing Coach wristlets for my girls, pashminas, and flip flops. The guys are getting Reef Sandals, sunglasses and maybe a Cigar. We averaged about $85 a person and have 9 attendees. =)

The OOT bags we haven't started because RSVPs are still trickling in and I don't want to over order too much! We don't have the extra cash lying around, lol!

We're here to help if you need it!!!

Talk about stress here!

We are now having to re-book our flight/hotel packages as the tour operator changed our flights so that all of our guests woulod either leave the day after or DAY OF the wedding! Our TA is scrambling, and I am just irritated that they can even do that! I mean, we booked our wedding date around the flights!

We are now waiting to hear from a different tour operator. Crossing our fingers, but it looks like we can save over $400 per person on a better room. We shall see if there is space on the flights.

Grrr. Anyways, thanks for reading my vent! It just sucks that we are all doing the invite/oot bags and other fun stuff, and now I have to go back to square one with the planning!

Christina, that is so frustrating!!! Oh no.
But that also worries me. Aren't you travelling through signature vacations? Why do you have to change your flight?? We still don't have flights yet... and I'm so nervous this will happen to us. We are travelling through Signature.
