Sorry this is long but I'm full of great checks! I went to spend time with DD & FI for a 3 day weekend. I took a complete centerpiece arrangement (linens, candles, flowers, table number frame) with me... I was so happy they LOVED it! Also went to the last florist on list, if her quote comes in on budget we have a florist. Checked in with the hotel we had blocked rooms with to add an extra day to some of the rooms. We blocked 33 rms, including bridal suite, found out all but 5 have already been accounted for!!! The bad news she gave us was the hotel is already full for that weekend so we can't add ant rms ... good news she has us on top priority for any rms not taken. She also added in the private banquet rm FREE for the whole weekend, Plus DD & FI will get their rm FREE!! We also have a date with the venue for the dinner tasting set, March 24. Last but not least I took a chance and bought DD's shoes ($15!) when she wasn't with me, had her try them on and they fit perfect... now all we have to do is dye them purple!! So many checks done, woohoo!
