I know....crazy right?  I'm geting ready to send invites out.  I still need to confirm DJ.  Purchase the rest of the vases for centerpieces and My fitting is next week.  Other than that there's the minor details and the counseling sessions with the minister.  Honeymoon is booked and paid for, cake and food is paid for.  I need to work on my programs.  That's my next task.

Tomorrow I can pre-register for our marriage certificate.
Finish my bouquet - I'm going to look at ribbon for the handle over lunch.
BM bouquets - ordered the White Gerbera daisies, they are shipping today and should get them this week
Gifts for bm's - just need to go to the mall and get gift certificates.
Approved my wax for my wedding band, now just waiting for it to be done and sautered (sp?) to my e-ring. 
Figure out if i want to do a bride hoodie ( all depends if i can find one cheap enough )
Started breaking in my shoes this weekend, holy cows glad i have two months to get those kind of broken in my feet were killing me!

Not sure what else i have left but i"m sure i'm forgetting something!

ETA: I ordered my shoe clips, hopefully they'll be here this week so i can tell if i like them or not.

HA!  I've been doing this too!  FI was laughing at me as I was walking around in them with socks and sweat pants on this weekend :)  I felt like a real betty crocker while i was cooking with them on!

I have to:
- finish my centerpieces (almost there!)
-do some DIY decor projects (pom poms, yarn balls, flag garland, etc.)
-finish premarital counseling
-meet with the preacher to go over the ceremony
-meet with the venue director/carterer (same person), DJ, florist, rental company, and photographer to go over final details.
-put together welcome baskets for OOT guests.
-last fitting for my dress
-hair and makeup trial
-break in shoes
-pick up rings

I'm sure there are a few more small details. It is just a relief to have most of the BIG things done :-)

Was it the way expensive one??  Or did you find a more reasonable one?  I think you'll be much more relaxed having someone else worry about the music!
