Arizona-Phoenix

100

I'm happy to say that we are at 100 days!!!! :-)  We started at more than 450 days, it seemed like it would never get here!

Where is everyone else at?

Are there any other local March brides feeling the excitement? I am so glad that the day is almost here! My invites are printed and picked up, just need to get them addressed and I can say I'm about done. Just a few small items here and there left to do!

    Nice!

    I'm at 119...   it feels forever away still.

    Our invites should be on the way this week or early next week maybe.  Really just a few things to do after that...  menu tasting is coming up, so we can finalize that and print menu cards (maybe, still haven't decided if we want/need them yet), and still deciding if we want programs or not.

    We need to decide on our last two song choices - reception intro and recessional.

    I need to find some purple votives, and once it gets closer, order the candy for the buffet.  Need to do table numbers and place cards/seating chart, and pick up our marriage license. 

    That's my full to-do list between now and the day before the wedding.   I'm pretty relaxed now that everything is sorted and booked, even though we ended up like 2k over budget.  I wish it was all paid for and sorted, but you know...   LOL

    45 days for me. :D I'm in the home stretch. I have literally *no* free nights or weekends until after Christmas, in the hopes that all my final wedding appointments are done before I leave for WA on the 15th. Then I can take stock of what I have left to work on after the holidays, which shouldn't be too much. Granted, I've only been engaged 5 months (and out of town every other weekend), so I have had to be pretty on top of the planning. ;)

    It does, and it doesn't. There are some days where I am SO impatient and SO tired of planning...and then others where it feels like I won't have time to finish everything. ;)

    Syndelin: Love your picture of you and your fiance by the way! You look beautiful! I know what you mean, still things to do and we just want the day to get here. Thanks for the reminder, I need to pick a few songs still. I think our recessional is to Smile by Uncle Kracker. Our grand entrance will probably be to Black Eyed Peas, I Gotta Feeling.

    Where are you ordering your candy from? I need to get some for my candy buffet and some of the sccops for the candy dishes. I thought about checking out that new candy store in Chandler, Sweeties.

    I'll have to do the seating chart and table numbers too.


    azdancer8: That's awesome only 45 days to go! That really does seem so close! I have to agree with the feeling you mentioned though. Sometimes I get so sick of planning and then I have other days where I can't get enough of it. I have gotten to the point where I've given some of the planning to my fiance though! Lol.


    FUN! Thanks for sharing ladies! :-)

    We're at 106 days and I'm starting to get anxious. I feel like there's a lot left to do. I still need to get our arrangements made for parking, get our reply cards and maps finished, address all of the invitations, decide on a menu, I just booked my hair trial finally, do engagement pics. There's probably more things I'm forgetting, but I'm starting to feel behind.

    Thank you!  =)

    I've got a feeling was one of our considerations too!  We're maybe doing either Ever Ever After by Carrie Underwood, or Walking on Sunshine by Katrina & the Waves for the recessional.   I'm not as good with faster paced music...  I can find slow love songs for 30 hours of music.  Up beat stuff, not so much.  LOL

    For candy, we were going to check out local places first and price things out a bit, see what we can find...  but if we need to order it online, I think it'll be from candywarehouse.com.   They have some awesome options for colors!

    Thanks for the tip about the candy, it looks like they have a lot of variety. I still need to price out some local places too.

    If you find any good local places, let me know!  =)

    Some of the stuff I want, I really don't want to have to have shipped, because they'll only do it overnight or next day.  It makes sense, but it can get spendy when you're ordering pounds of candy.
