    I sent off our ceremony script to our officiant for his input and priced out my wedding ring.

    I have a promise ring that FI gave me about 5 years before we got engaged and started planning the wedding, so I figured instead of having it sit there being unused forever, why not melt it down and make it part of my wedding ring! I'm a little bit sad though, because I need to hand over that ring, as well as my engagement ring for about 2 weeks for it to be made. Anyone else had to do this and found it nerve wracking?

    I'm also mailing our last cheque to pay off the honeymoon accommodations. yay!

    -Mailed out the 1 thank you note for the check we received for a wedding gift. We can't cash it yet though because it's dated 5-23-12
    -Started folding programs last night.
    -Looked over our guest list and we think we might just make the minimum needed to pay for (140 people) which means the venue is just about paid off already.

    Last night:
    *Finalized our seating chart...hopefully unless we have any declines in the next couple weeks.
    *Finished my vows
    *Started work on the silks for the centerpieces
    *Edited the time line and sent it to the wedding party along with special dates coming up in the next couple weeks. I plan to give them the final copy at the RD.

    Other recent checks:
    *Dress fitting

    *Meeting with the church to discuss ceremony details. Went really well!
    *Flowers are complete (they are silks)

    Here are some pics. I didn't want to post a fitting pic..sorry ladies I'm getting nervous about showing the dress since we're soo close!!:)
