Friday Checks

FI and I had a very productive day.

I dropped off his ring to get engraved, he ordered his groomsmen gifts (thanks peackykeen for your recommendation), I ordered the hankies for our moms and have tracked down all but 6 of the missing RSVP's.

    My pleasure. :)

    I will hopefully get the majority of the RD planned out today. I am also going to be writing out the readings and asking another one of our pastor's to do one of them.

    Last night we finalized our "Play" and "Do not play" lists for the reception and FI is sending it to the band today!

    We've also made 67 jars of jam so far!! Who knows how many we'll end up making. We have 99 yeses and 124 people left to hear from (only 10 nos!)

    We got our first official decline yesterday. Up until now, we've gotten yeses where only have the family can come or something like that, but no true declines. My mom was so sad. I'm being more realistic and hoping for a good amount of more nos. I was hoping for 180-190. If everyone else accepts (which I know they wont), we'll be at 223!!

    We have our cake tasting tonight and we're putting the deposit down on the cupcake stand our cake will sit at the top of. Our wedding 'cake' will look similar to this but chocolate and vanilla cupakes with white icing and damask cupcake wraps.

    Got the hankies for my FMIL and grandma in the mail- they look great!  I now have all my BM gifts as well so I have to start wrapping them this weekend.
    I got one out of the three pairs of wedding shoes as options I ordered and I HATE them!  I'm really disappointed b/c they were my favorite online.  They were also the most expensive so I guess it's good I'm sending them back.  Hopefully the other two will be better.
