Hey ladies!!! So I really need to get back to being on here as much as I was in the beginning! I cant believe there is only 46 days till the big day..YIKES!

to put together welcome brochure

to buy swimwear and honeymoon lingerie

wedding jewelery

wedding decor

OOT bag items

reserve entertainment for cocktail hour 

get the GM suits (my FI is more of a slacker than I am)

buy a new tie for FI suit

pick out shoes for FI

etc....

 

So far I have:

 

picked up my dress

Don't worry I think all of us have been on here less and less as the time winds down and we get closer and closer to our date. I still need to find a tie for FI and the groomsmen. I haven't printed my programs or menus yet. I have them typed on the computer but just not printed. 

 

Everything else is pretty much finished.....oh I'm still waiting on my bags and water bottles from discountmugs cause they messed up my artwork.

So...I took my dress yesterday to get "let out"  and i have to wait to see the alterations Mgr. Tues to see what she can do because they said there may not be enough fabric to get it taken out...*sigh* I asked them what about getting the next size up...They said they could order but it wont come until the 20th and I leave on the 27th....cutting it tooooo close.....I hope they can do it...They said it would be an even exchange..( fingers crossed it IS!)

 

I still need:

 

-To get Pashminas for OOT

have no idea for MEN yet (that was FI's task!) was gonna order MUGs but he said no....smh..

-mail out pre travel brochures this week!

-Get Fi's suit altered and he still needs shirt

-Get Nephew's suit altered ( ring bearer)

-buy Nephew OOT stuff

-Need wedding jewelry.. I saw a cute blingy headband in Davids Bridal but I'm not sure I want to spend $200 for it!

- Need to buy more Clothes!!! ( as I can only fit some of the dressed I bought and the shorts don't fit at all!! smh.)

I did....But the ladies said I should wait to see what the Mgr. says.....They said possibly but they were still saying it wond do anything for the little bit of room I need in the front of my dress for my " BUMP"

[MysTea]

So I went to the dress shop last night and the mANAGER ( WHO WAS AWESOME!) was able to find a brand new dress ( IN STORE) that fit, it was one size up...and because it had a little room it was perfect!  She told me to come back in 2 weeks to see how the dress fits and then at that point if she needs to take it in a lil she will! And although there was a price difference with the larger size...she exchanged it FOR FREE! Yippeeee!!

 

Phew! one less thing to think about!

That is GREAT news! You must be so happy and relieved! I am so glad things worked out so well for you!
