    Sunday after he proposed we drove around and told our families and Monday we started planning. So far we've decided on a reception/ceremony site, picked our table vases/votives/candles, ordered table clothes, I got my dress, FI brainstormed what he wanted for his suit and the groomsmen, we've decided on flowers, and tonight we finalized invitations and ordered them. We have a rough list of guests 80-100 and I have half their addresses. 

    I picked my bridesmaids and we found a dress everyone loved. There was a memorial day sale and we got them for $23, originally $80. Hopefully they work, but we can always send them back. Today was my birthday so we tried to not talk wedding stuff but it's hard, we're both too excited.

    We're just trying to do a little bit everyday and so far it's stayed fun.

    Wow - sounds like you've got a lot done already!  Are you using the to-do checklist here?  I started using it but I still have 50 to-do's to go and only 72 days and it's starting to freak me out!  :)

    Oh, and Happy Birthday!

     

    Take care,
    Kim

    Yes, I think I have about 60 to do's! But we've talked about some of them and just have to make a final decision, then they'll be done. There were something's that would have taken a lot of time to decide but since we're in a rush it makes it easier. We had narrowed it to 4 venues and discussed it back and forth and settled on it after two days. My bridesmaid dresses came in today and they look even better than online. Whew.
