October Brides!

First, umm how the heck did Oct. almost get here so fast!?:)

Second, what do you have left to do??  Here's what I have looking at my list:

-Test Signature Drink recipe
-Create sparkler sendoff sign, wedding brochure for Welcome Bags, print off map, do the brochure for Welcome Bags
-Finish Personalized Hangers, I have 3 left
-Print and put together favor tags
-Amend program, print and put together
-Finish painting a decor item which I'm doing tonight
-Get everything ready for shipping and ship to scheme
-Put together Ipod playlist
-Figure out what is being said during ceremony
-Pick up dress/suit

Crap that seems like a lot!  I'm sure I'm missing a couple things too. We also need to do some beauty things, we both are doing the 2 week whitestrips, getting my hair colored and cuts for both, me get a pedicure/manicure.  Both need to go shopping for a couple new outfits.

Agh!!!

    -Pick up dress
    -Print programs
    -Music

    I can't really think of much else. I don't feel like there's many loose ends!! 

    Good luck to you! Can't wait to see everyone's pics!

    I get married in like a little over a week and I feel like I have a ton to do but dont know where to start. Luckily I am off from work starting tomorrow so I have a lot of time to make list, make phone calls and all that...

    But I do know that I still need to:
    -Finalize a few food things
    -Decide if I want to do get my nails done here or in Vegas
    -Make an ipod playlist
    -Talk to my photographer (he is coming with us from MPLS)
    -Finalize day of timeline schedule
    -Go shopping more

    I know there is a lot more, I just cant think of anything right now

    I'm so over planning that I don't care about the rest of my list. I have a place to stay, a chapel to marry in and the man of my dreams. But, I do need a new pair of shoes because my flip flops are too short. I'm too busy being excited that it's finally here to bother worrying about details. Nohing is going to ruin it for me. I just keep repeating that and it's bound to be true, right?

    I can't believe it is here either!  My to do list before we leave is:
    -Buy parents gifts
    -Get e-ring cleaned
    -Mani/Pedi (monday)
    -Pack!

    Everything is confirmed with all of my vendors except my photographer, Deacon Tyler, fractured his leg on Monday and had surgery today.  He insists he will still be there to shoot next week, but I have offered to change up our arrangements a bit to make it easier for him to get around.  We'll see what happens...so as of right now, that is my only outstanding item!!

    (other than the rain in the forecast for Thurs and Fri - which I am trying not to worry about since I know the weather reports will change several times by then!)

    Ack! You're all putting me to shame! I seem to have so much left to do...which also seems impossible...I spend so much time planning, how can my list still be this long?! I am very over planning also.

    Here's what I have left:

    Finish buying stuff to make decorations
    Order the programs, welcome letters, and thank you cards from vista print
    Write Vows
    Dance Lessons
    Select songs
    Buy jewelry
    Finish buying gifts
    Finish timeline
    Make slideshow for welcome reception

    ...and that's just the major stuff. I'm sure there are a million more details.

    Good luck finishing up everyone! I know I need it! Wink
