what have you done/plan to do lately

sarack

I've been feeling like i've done NOTHING WR lately. I'm trying to get little things done because I am too lazy to do anything else.. haha and i only have little things left to do..

this week:
paid venue off
finished buying the rest of the gm gifts
purchased the rest of my frosted votives
decided on what kind of centerpieces i want
started calling local growers for flowers
cut new paper for menus/table#

need to:
finish napkins
buy more flameless candles
go get FI actually fitted for his tux and possibly change tux style
buy a circle punch
make mock up of tablenumber/menu
start escort cards
figure out music for ceremony
make something to let bms know i'll be paying for their makeup

also, my mum and dad both offered to give us money for the wedding. My mum's financial situation is really bad and the fact that she offered is amazing. She put $125 in my bank account and said she'll do that for the next 2 months before the wedding. Every little bit counts. We're pretty excited!

Yeah, I haven't been doing anything lately.  I got my dress last week.  I have been serious about getting in shape, finally.  And working on passports.  That's about it.

sarack, what size of circle punch do you need?  FI got us a 1" punch but what we really needed was one that was a little smaller.  It's a good one too, the fiskars squeeze kind that doesn't hurt your hand. 

If you would like it I'll sell it to you for $5, half price.

I am very happy to still have just under a year to go, so I can sit back and relax and play with the puppy we got this Wed.

I was working on narrowing down to a couple of places for the RD to go over with FMIL.  I think I will get back to this next week.
I am also asking 3 of my friends to be in our wedding party (yes, I know it is super early, but I want to, and it is hard to get the 3 of them together, and a meet and greet with my new puppy is a great ploy) this weekend.

I need to start working on my invites, see if I can get FI to help with music and maybe work on the favors.
