We ordered the BM dresses!!!!! Finally!!!!
I finished the cardbox (love it)
Nailed down the flowers, for now.
Picked two color schemes, one for the ceremony and one for the reception
Decided on a Cake Topper design (Just have to make it now)
And I got the flower girls their baskets
Also, decided on their attire, I am making them tu-tu's.

Congrats on all those checks! I've picked my bridesmaids dresses although they aren't ordered and technically the girls haven't concurred LOL. But I know its the one! Also the Save the Dates went out last week and we're getting calls, texts, and fb messages saying thanks and how nice they are!

Hooray! That'a a lot!
I definitely suggest Enticing Icings for cake, Buckeye Entertainment for DJ (as stated in your post) and I am using Flowers on High for our florist..
I will say, Cindy and Enticing Icings's husband recently suffered from a heart attack so she may be a little hard to get ahold of at this point. So, be patient. She is totally worth it!

It's all little stuff - I'm designing our invitations.  They have to be ordered by 2/10 because that's when my groupon to Mixbook expires.  I've ordered blue envelopes, I will have no clue if the blue on the invites will match the blue envelopes until I can order a couple invites as samples.  I don't really have time for a couple rounds of sampling between now & 2/10.<div>Hotel block - FI was going to take care of this one.  He hasn't yet.  I either have to take it from him or nag him until he takes care of it, which I'd rather not do.  I 'm worried it's too late because our wedding is OSU graduation weekend.  And my mom is driving me crazy about it.  </div>

I will tell you, the least expensive photographer I have found is Stephanie Barnes Photography. She is also the best photographer.
Let her know I sent you-Sarah Myers. :)
