Check1: So, we signed the contract and threw down the deposit for The Syndicate! We're still debating on whether we're having the ceremony there and some friends pointed us to their episcopaleon (I can never speel that) church just around the corner. Check2: I finally got my mom to give me our family and family friends guest list. Now we have to work on FI's mom and dad (who are divorced and in relationships--she's re-married, he's dating someone). This may take awhile. Knotties, please send good vibes my way--this next part if fraught with familial treachery.That's if for now, I hope to have more checks soon!
