Those are great checks!

chelseakopperud · January 2012

-ordered bridemaid robes so I am officially done with the bridesmaid's gifts!
-ordered a pomander sample to see if we want to go with this etsy dealer for our ceremony chair decorations.

Cassandra999 · January 2012

- Made hair & makeup appointments, big relief!

- Ordered envelopes (see yesterday's check thread)

- Bugged FI about reserving hotel block (he's finally making some progress here! arg!)

- Got an email from DB that the last BM dress came in!

chelseakopperud · January 2012

Cassandra- I love your shoes! Where did you get them?

acaponi87 · January 2012

FI and I registered (well went for a 2nd time and actually tried) at Macy's yesterday! It went so much better than expected. I didn't want to register for fine china but FI and I found a pattern that we both love! I was shocked. I'll post a pic of it when I get home. We are also registering at BBB & discovered that a lot of the stuff we picked is also available there & for much cheaper so we moved some stuff. We're still prob barely halfway done though. We both have short attention spans when it comes to stuff like that.

Cassandra999 · January 2012

Chelsea- Thanks!! I was trying to decide between 2 pairs and I think I've decided on these b/c the ivory really matches my dress. They are Chinese Laundry "Hotline". I got them from Bakers online, but I don't think they have them anymore. If you google it you can still find them on Shoemall.com, Zappos, 6pm.com, Endless.com & Macys.

gregamywedding · January 2012

Congrats on all the checks ladies.

Checks
-Ordered photo share cards
-Ordered wallets size pics to go in invites. (my STD didn't have a pic so I decided to do this)

HarperBargo · January 2012

We ordered our invitations yesterday! They still honored a 20.12% discount even though it expired which was a great surprise.

We are working on the actual ceremony now.

Ash61612 · January 2012

Me too. I have a code for a free calendar from them and $20 to spend with them too. I'll probably buy the photo book I did for e pics but haven't purchased yet.

I got the $20 to spend with them too. I used it to order the wallet size pics that I needed. I got a free photo book coupon up to a $54 value for them from David's Bridal I am going to use that to get my guest book.

Nice! I think I'm gonna post my calendar code here for someone. I won't use it because I have a white board calendar, a planner, and another calendar I got from a co worker lol

KrisKenny · January 2012

I worked on my livingroom last night. Cleaned it up and organized it so I have better space to work on my wedding DIY projects.

We have our second meeting with my pastor tonight. I'm hoping to be able to have time to go over all of the ceremony details tonight because he is leaving for a 3 month sabbatical next Tuesday. I would like to get everything in order so I can work on my programs.

laurabub · January 2012

Today I called the hotel and told them that they still had not sent me the contract for the block of rooms I had reserved. Seems that they didn't even put us in the system, so I did it all over again with this new lady I was talking to. Hopefully I will get a contract to sign by tomorrow!

Oh no that really sucks.

tgerl · January 2012

Yesterday I accomplished the following:

- Made FI a "to-do" list for the week. He responds well to a detailed task list and does a good job of getting things done (I don't give him anything too tough .
- We went through our honeymoon budget. Originally we were thinking of doing something really small in June and then a big trip in November, but after seeing all of the great reviews of the Secrets resort in Playa del Carmen, I am dying to go there in June. I think we might be able to make it work. Now I just need to get ahold of a travel agent - I hate it when they don't call back!
- Talked in detail about the ceremony music with our ceremony guitarist. Still need to pay the deposit, but otherwise that is all set!
- Other than that, I was snowed in for most of the day, so posted some cute ideas to pinterest.

It is definitely getting more fun as we get closer to June - looks like everyone is getting a lot done!

Zims - Does shutterly have a guest book option or did you use a photo book and add lines for people to write on? I really like this idea, but am curious about the specifics. Thanks!

Congrats on all the checks everyone!
