Monday Progress Update - 04/21/14

Only one more full week of April left!!! I got a lot of little stuff done this week. I think that seems to be all I have left to do. So here's what I got done:

 - Wrapped bridal party presents
 - Final meeting with photographer
 - Started seating chart and escort cards
 - Made final music selections
 - Made restroom baskets
 - Made kid's activity bags

How about you ladies? I know some of you guys are getting really close to your wedding date so hopefully almost all your stuff is done.

Re: Monday Progress Update - 04/21/14

  • - got our marriage license - got gifts for bridal party and parents - got all candles for the ceremony and reception and sent them off with the in-laws - picked up a dress for my bridesmaid - finally decided on my wedding fragrance I still have 40 days. Thank god! There's still so much to do.
  • Started all my finalizing details. Or rather confirming with the vendors. Trying to get ahold of mens warehouse and I swear to god if I get told to callback one more time because they are too busy im going to go postal!
  • Is it just me or all the weeks starting to blend together??

    -Completed the little DIY stuff I wanted (See pic below...please excuse the mess...our 2nd bedroom still has shower stuff in it and has become the wedding room lol)
    -Received everything I ordered online (bridesmaid gifts, hair accessories, etc)
    -Tonight I have a dress fitting!
    -Booked a few final appointments

    That's all I can think of....

  • This is the first time i've done a Monday Update, but here is what was done this past week:

    -First dress fitting (just need a hem)

    -Finished sewing, i guess you'd call them placemats? for the centerpieces

    -Discussed Dad's apparel with him

    -Tried once again to get FI to try on the shirt that was purchased months ago (he has gained a bit in his belly and doesn't want to try it on in fear it wont fit.... its a teal blue in color (matches perfectly!) but no longer at Kohl's, so if it doesn't fit not sure what i'm gonna do!)

    That was it for wedding stuff. We are moving this weekend, so wedding issues are on hold for a few days!

    You have all been really busy!

  • We applied for the marriage license (did it online, will go and pick it up tomorrow in person). Wrapped wedding party & parents gifts. Printed out the rest of the programs. Had final meeting with photographer. Put together day of timeline. Got all escort cards to the calligrapher. Started to put together a day of emergency kit for my self. completed seating chart. Finalized the flower delivery times for both the hotel/get ready spot and the venue. I can't remember anything else right now - my allergies have kicked in (thank you Spring time!) and my head is all foggy lol.

  • Can't believe its almost the end of April!
    - We met with our rental company about the tent
    - Met our JP
    - Confirmed reservations with the park
    - Sent rehearsal dinner invites
    - Booked hair and nail appointments!!
    - Started painting plywood sandwich board signs for the bar/menu
    - Spray painted a bunch of glass bottles
    - Finally, yesterday... had to reorganize the office, because the wedding stuff was preventing us from walking in it....

    Shower is this Saturday, and my mom is coming up from FL.... Should be fun!  My FMIL has been making me store all the shower stuff with my wedding stuff, can't wait to get rid of it (I don't blame her though, it would get lost in her house)
  • I had my hair trial. And FI gift is ready. I had a pocket watch engraved for him. All the flowers are taken care of and paid for. So is our DJ. We meet with our photographer tomorrow. And that is about it for me! :)
