    I was going to say music and do you have undergarments for your dress? Pray for a honeymoon is on my list too!

    The ladies named them all...I think. I will just add:
     
    - Coordinate & confirm delivery times for all vendors (DOC may do this).
    - Finalize guestlist (if its not done yet) & give final headcount to caterer

    Gotta get the undergarments they are sewing in cups but I gotta get some bottomsI

    I am giving FI til tomorrow to book his funky uncle as the videographer and if he doesn't I have one on standby that is not booked and I am paying him in full on Saturday if FI dont move his feet

    I am going to the limo company on Saturday before the fitting to get a larger party bus and reduce the hours needed and make my second to last payment to them. I made these changes over the phone but I think when you drop off money they really make the changes and stick to them lol

    Gosh parents gift OMG forgot about that this is 2 separate gifts I have to buy I think the albums after the wedding will be their gifts but I want both moms to have a pandora bracelet so I will have to pay kay a visit.

    FI refuses to do personal vows he is very shy but in counseling yesterday we worked on the biblical vows so that is all set

    I ordered the unity cross on Sunday so we should be getting that next month if not sooner

    Working on the final guest count they have until 8.10 to RSVP
