50 days until my wedding. This s surreal. Three weeks until RSVPs are due and we only have 25% back. FH anticipates quite a few declines on his side and suggested some B list invites yesterday to make up for it :-/ I feel bad for the guy but still...no.

I know there are a lot of May 21 brides--and May brides in general. How goes it??

    53 Days! After a 2 year engagement, it feels so strange saying we're Getting Married Next Month!!!

    We're really basically done with everything, and now I'm just working on getting the small things (programs, signs, escort cards) taken care of. Everything else we have to do is around Final meetings & payments with vendors or waiting for the rest of our RSVPs to come in to complete the seating chart.

    I'm just soo ready for it to be here already, most of my anxiety is around just having to wait for these next few weeks to go by.

    I got a lot done this past Friday - found my plates/silverware (we are going disposable since it is not a fancy venue, but the ones we bought look great!) and we also bought all the liquor and got ideas for what kind of beer/wine we want to have. My officiant contacted us and is going to have our ceremony draft soon, which is crazy! I figured once we have that I can work on programs. I have half my RSVPs back (and no declines) so it will be interesting to see what the remaining ones do.

    So excited for all the brides, but especially my fellow May 21st-ers!

    @Sunni...the only ones who are within driving distance are my immediate family (parents, brothers, and sister-in-law). We did send save-the-dates though

    This post made me so excited/nervous/anxious!! It is so crazy to say next month!

    I sent out invites last week and got quite a few in the mail yesterday it was so fun opening them! But then got none today :/

    We both ordered our wedding bands over the weekend (FH's came today already!) and I had my first fitting and we met with the venue to go over things. Still prob quite a few things I need to get on the ball with! Music, accessories, card box........ Idk!

    I was just thinking about the RSVP thing, we got about 20% the week after we sent them and haven't gotten any in almost a week.... is it really that hard to say yes (or no) and put it in the mail? It's already stamped... I really don't want to be calling people about it.

    Almost 50 days out now too and it's making me nervous.

    I'm right there with you...check a box, pick a meal, put it in the mail...easy!! Apparently not.

    Yay! It's almost our time! I wish people would take into consideration how we stalk the postman and quickly send RSVPs back! Still got some small details to hammer out but things are going well. Oh and my bachelorette party this weekend.
