Caris, on May 22, 2013 at 10:13 AM Posted in Planning 0 10

Since you're the only one I know of :-)

Where are you all with planning? Only one month left!!! I can't believe it!

I feel so far behind... today is the RSVP deadline!

I still have to:

-call those who haven't RSVP'd

-create seating chart, make seating cards, table numbers, etc

-make ceremony program fans (after actually creating the program!)

-get wedding party favors

-finish brooch bouquet

-make boutonnier for FH

-find accessories for my dress

-find song for first dance

-pack for HM!!!

-ship my stuff (relocating to Washington)

-and this list goes on... :-)

    Yayyyyyyyyyy it's almost go time!

    Hmm let me think what do I have to do??

    Get final count-I gave until June1st for some people who had work issues, once I get that I can start the seating chart and escort cards.

    Escort cards are photo frames, so I'll need to print them out and insert them in the frames.

    Tie ribbons around our bubbles

    Finalize things with our vendors'

    Buy the stuff for the welcome bags, put together the welcome bags

    Buy baskets for our programs

    I'm sure there is more, I just can't think!!

    Ahhh so exciting!

    Oh yes, welcome bags!

    I have bubbles too! Just bought them from hobby lobby yesterday, and the ribbon Smiley smile

    And final talks with vendors! I'm thinking of tweaking the food a little, and the decor (all done by the venue).

    I'm beyond excited! I just need to calm down and focus lol!

    Close but not quite - June 19th (the Wednesday before)

    Still have to finish my Escort Cards and bottle labels, hoping to do that tonight after son's baseball game ... heck may take them to the game to do them Smiley smile

    buy some more candy for the candy bar

    Buck it up and make a decision on my jewelry. This has become more stressful than anything else I've done, including finding the dress.

    and then there are the two biggies: our OOT Welcome Bags (and yup everyone is out of town) and finally boxing up all our decorations, candy bar glassware, and everything else needed for the trip north to our venue.

    @MinD EVERYONE??? Ouch! We have a bunch from OOT but luckily most are staying with family that live in the area. I still need to get on those bags though. The deadline for the hotel block is May 31, so I still have a bit of time to decide what to do :-)

    Yay@Mrs.J another date twin!!

    What are you ladies thinking to put in the bags?

    We're DW to Massachusetts and we all live in PA so making a 3-day party out of it...so yup, making 40 bags

    Still debating what all to put into the bags. So far we have small champagne bottles w/ flutes (Jones soda for the kids), a personalized letter from us, water bottles, packs of New England Coffee for the hotel room and a gift certificate to the on-site bakery at our venue (which is well known for their amazing pecan rolls but guests can use it to get whatever treats they want) We want to add a few more items, but not sure exactly what.
