Hey Ladies -
I missed you all.. I've kinda be lurking a little.. but not nearly on as much as before.

I've gotten SO much accomplished. I don't have much left. I can't wait.

Our STDs finally went out yesterday at 3pm - and someone already received theirs. It's official now!

I want to be compeletely finished planning by march so that I can sit back at wait. I remember when I was at 500 days.. now It's a stone's throw away!

I can't thank you all enough for all the help you've given this last year.

    Wooow Girl don't get me started. Planning has been a mess. My reception hall went into foreclosure so I am search of a new one. I have 2 tentative right now but nothing locked down. Still looking for a church to marry us for less than $2,000. I have most of the other vendors booked but the church and the reception have me ready to pull my hair out.

    I never looked at church as big business but it surely is. I have one lead on a Lutheran church but FI is hesitant.

    That's right - you had the omni.. fingers crossed that you find something you love that's reasonable.

    did you ever look into belle isle casino? you can rent the whole thing for a steal.. and have the ceremony on either floor OR outside on the terrace.

    I've been wondering where the heck you've been!! I'm glad to hear things are going well.  I wish I could say that I can relax by March, it's something I aim for.  :)  Maybe you can help me? ;)

    Welcome back and congrats on the checks!!

    Sheshe and I are in the same boat, we both had HVCC booked and they went into foreclosure, but thankfully she and I have joined forces and helping each other out.  It's so nice (double edged sword) to have someone go through the same thing are you.

    Yikes - you too?? How terrible that they didn't make sure that you had somewhere to go. Were you able to recoup whatever you had paid them upfront???

    I am sure here to help - however I can!!! At least you have each other and the awesome ladies on the boards.

    Yes, I was able to get my deposits back with a little bit of teeth pulling, but it worked out in the end.  I have now signed with Hellenic Cultural Center in Westland.
    Everything else is starting to come together, I just need to prioritize my weekends a little bit better with work, homework and wedding planning/DIY projects. I'm looking to hire a personal assistant!! LOL
