How's it going, ladies? FI and I have been on vacation for the past week, and therefore have pretty much been in a no-planning zone...a much-appreciated reprieve after everything I went through to get the invitations out before we left! But we got home tonight and found a whole bunch of wedding related goodies had come in the mail while we were gone: FI's gifts for his side of the wedding party (pocketwatches engraved with each GM's initials), the replacement copy of FI's birth certificate (so we can FINALLY get our marriage license!) and, amazingly, THIRTY-THREE RSVP cards!! We still have three weeks until our response deadline and we've already heard from more than half our guests, which feels fantastic. Better yet, all the declines we've gotten have either been people we didn't expect to come anyway, or kids who were invited but whose parents decided to make it a grown-ups night out. Some older members of my dad's family who I didn't think would be able to make the trip have RSVPed yes, and that feels fantastic. I haven't seen some of these people in years, and it'll be great to have everyone together.
I think I'm starting to feel excited about this wedding again...I guess I really needed the break!
