It's Monday! Please feel free to AW (with Pics of course lol) or tell us about your "Checks" (aka your WR or NWR accomplishments) from over the weekend and your wedding goals for the week

I ordered my slip and my bra this weekend.  I blinged out the votives and I order my pomander balls from ebay.  Oh I also got the flip flops from old navy.

FI and I researched videographers this weekend. We have an appointment with one next month and we are still waiting to hear back from the other one we contacted...

Wow, Colleen, have a blast! That's a pretty cool place to get to travel for work!

I have really been slacking on wedding planning lately, I don't know why. I signed some contracts but am waiting on my dad to write me a check to make deposits.

I'm going wedding dress shopping on Wedensday, so I'm pretty excited about that... I'm breaking the Say Yes to the Dress rule by bringing my whole bridal party. I actually already know a lot of them have a different style from me, so if they don't like a dress that I love, it won't phase me... but if I actually look bad in the dress, I can rely on them to let me know!

How exciting, Angelstar! Where are you going for dresses? I went to "visit" my dress this weekend after my hair and makeup trials and I almost started crying, I was so excited (I'm weird).

We finished our invitations, I did my hair/makeup trials (as I mentioned), and I bought my rehearsal dinner dress this weekend. Nothing WR this week.

I'm going to Brides and Grooms in DE. I've heard mixed reviews, but I wanted to save the tax and they have the designer I like, so I'm going to start there. I'm really excited!!

I don't blame you for almost crying, it must have been awesome to get a little sneak peek of how amazing you're going to look on your wedding day! And congrats on finishing your invitiatons!

Looks like TK ate my post... I'm going to Brides and Grooms in DE. I've heard mixed reviews, but they have the designer I like and it's tax free, so I thought I'd start there. Should be fun!

I totally understand almost crying, it was probably pretty cool to get a good idea of how you're going to look on your wedding day! It's getting pretty close, the next 4 months will fly by!

I have 2 checks but they happened today, not over the weekend. I made an appointment for next Saturday to look for BM dresses, and I scheduled my hair & makeup trial for April 29!

This week I'm really hoping to book my florist (if I don't hear from her by tomorrow I'm going to call her). I've also sent an email to my contact at the venue to ask about times for the rehearsal, so once I hear back from her I can go ahead and start looking for places to have the RD. And then this Friday we're going to look for tuxes.

We had our food tasting on Saturday, it went really well. We were supposed to go look at tuxes, but we decided to put it off until this weekend, men's wearhouse sent us a coupon to get $40 off each rental, hopefully we can use it.

<div>Haha, that's awesome. I'm sorry I never sent you a picture of my hair, I went to send it to myself and deleted it instead. I'm the worst at doing stuff like that, I delete emails all the time when I mean to click reply. Did they get back to you?</div>

<div>That's ok. They did get back to me. The prices are great, but I'm a little nervous that nothing comes up when I do a google search of them. No business, no website, no reviews. I've booked a trial with one of Daneene Jensen's girls, and if for some reason that doesn't go well then maybe I'll give these girls a shot. I appreciate you sending me the info :-)</div>
