Marriage License Pre-application!

Hooray!!! Congratulations!!! Isn't it all so exciting?! What's left on your to do list?

We will have to go and pick it up in person, but I guess this helps to speed up the process a little bit. Any small effort to save time will help, as we'll have to go as soon as they open and both head in to work!

RSVPs are rolling in now so we'll eventually have to give final counts to the venue and caterer; purchase ring bearer/bannermen suits; finalize menu; finalize timetables; finalize songs for the ceremony, mother/son dance, and father/daughter dance; go to my second fitting appointment for my dress; get my hair colored; schedule nail appts for myself and my ladies... mostly small details!

Mostly small details, but it seems like you've got them all in order!! Way to go!!! What songs are you thinking about for the mother/son and father/daughter dance?

Hi WagstoKray, I'm a Fairfax County bride too! You have to go through security, so if you're in a rush, make sure you check your pockets - FH had a work knife in his and had to go back to to the car to leave it. But it actually turned out to be a fun process. You raise your hands a do a vow to the clerk, which we didn't know and was kind of funny.
