AW Thursday!

So what have you ladies been doing? -HUGE CHECK for me! FI has a friend that is very proficient in Spanish grammar (I never knew she was), showed her the wording, took her less than 5 min cleaned it showed me the errors which where very minimal (that made me happy) and said you are ready to have an invite made. :) Then I showed my mom she said "oh you did it!!!" hahaha! Spanish Invites DONE!!!! That's it for me, I couldn't believe that the Spanish Invites consumed me so much! EEEEK!

    Everyone pretty much knows about all much checks this week, but I am back into the wedding groove after seeing that my dress actually fits me.1. 2nd dress fitting done, 3rd fitting scheduled for November     3rd.2. Save-the-Dates were mailed on Tuesday.3. I finished the working prototype of my pocketfolds, and, thanks to some great advice on the DIY board, I finally got my pockets to behave and not stick to the RSVP cards or reception cards.  I am about to head over to the local library and start cutting the large ream of metallic card stock I ordered for the project.4. I ordered the flatback 1.5 to 1.7 mm rhinestones I intend to spruce up my invitations with.  Just a matter of them arriving.5. I gave my processional music to my organist and I found how how much it would cost to hire the trumpeters who play for special church services(Christmas and Easter) to play for our wedding.  That's about it.

    Oh my goodness has it been busy at work! I'm a bit late on this, but it is still Thursday so...- FI booked wedding day transportation. The day right after though, my dad offered to pay for a limo for us (we just went with a town car) and so now FI has to call back and change it, haha- Got all the RSVPs in! Yay! I think I had a pretty easy guest list, we only ended up having to call 5 couples and they told us right then if they were coming or not.- Finished the seating chart and escort cards- FI finished all the paper cranes- Groomsmen gifts are done, as well as parents gifts. I did the bridesmaids a while ago.- We cooreographed our first dance and are practicing it :)- I had my batchelorette party, woohoo!- Mailed out final payments to DJ, Hair/MUA, and Photographer. We will be meeting with the florist to finalize and pay for everything tomorrow- FI and I picked out the flowers we will be getting for the centerpieces/favorsI think that's it!
