August 2012 Weddings

I'm knot ready yet!

Because I still need...
 - a veil, jewelry, and a makeup artist.
 - to pick ceremony music.
 - to finalize our ceremony.
 - find gifts for our bridal party.
 - a caterer for the rehearsal dinner.
 - to hear from 56% of our invited guests.

Okay. That isn't as bad as I thought it was.  How are you knot ready yet? ;)
