Congrats to all of this past weekend's brides!

July 13-15 brides, you're up next!

What are your to-do's this week? WR/NWR?

We need to finish our escort cards and send in our final head count. Still waiting on 5 more people, GRR!

I won't be able to do too much until I go back to my parents' next week and then we'll need to set up the busy bags for the kids, organize what to bring to the ceremony, reception, and the rehearsal dinner. Not much to do I think.

My last Monday before my wedding, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

WR - We have to finish the table numbers and card box. We also have to wrap all the gifts for the wedding party. I also have to review all the information for the honeymoon and make sure everything is right, the travel agent screwed it up already and I just can't bring myself to look at it and have it be wrong. We are also hosting the rehearsal dinner on Friday at our house, so I guess cleaning can be WR this week! Oh and we have final meetings with the photographer tomorrow and the venue/caterer on Wednesday. And Friday I'm going for a mani/pedi with the girls.

NWR - I just started an online grad class today, yes I know wtf am I doing, I have no clue would be my answer. So I have 3 weeks worth of assignments to do before I leave for the airport next Monday morning at 330am, at least the topics seem easy, so I might be able to pull it off. Oh and I'm working this week Monday - Thursday.

Michelle summed up how I'm feeling on this Monday!

WR - Buying all the food for the rehearsal dinner, picking up our frame for our signature mat guest book, final count in to the venue tomorrow, printing escort cards, getting our centerpieces together, wrap GM's gifts and finish emergency kit, mani/pedi on Friday before my 'bachlorette party' at the local winery!!! And of course, THE WEDDING! Ahhh!!!

NWR - Nothing!

I can't believe it is almost here!

WR I just have to pick up my dress on Thursday so that will be exciting. Other than that everything WR is done (never thought I'd say that).

NWR today is my last day of work before the wedding. It is going so slow and I keep thinking someone is making time just stop.

Not crazy amounts of stuff left to do, but a few details!

Some signage, wrapping BM gifts, OH AND PICKING UP OUR MARRIAGE LICENSE TOMORROW. I also need to write out my cards to my fiance, my mom, my readers, etc. Everything left is kind of last minute stuff though.

NWR: GYM/YOGA to de-stress.

butterflyjumper1 · July 2012

send in final head count, work on seating chart, finish place cards, and work on escort frame station with pictures and frames and table charts. Oh and we are getting our marriage license this week, having our final meeting with our minister, finalizing our programs with our etsy designer, and having our final meeting with our DJ.

We also need to send out our brochure and our timelines for printing and start assembling things for our OOT guest boxes.

turns out fiance and I are quite good at waltzing - our dance teacher said we were the fastest learners she had ever seen and that we were soaking up tons of ballroom knowledge! turns out 90 minutes of waltzing is actually pretty exhausting. Two more 90 minute private lessons and hopefully we will be pros! It was pretty fun, to be honest - ballroom dancing is a pretty fun activity

I just sent in our final details to our baker for both our macaroon favors and our cake and also sent final details to our florist (who I absolutely LOVE). It's so funny how all of us have such strong bonds with our florists over all other vendors.

Oh and I had my second fitting on Saturday - everything looks great, we just are adding my one-shoulder strap prior to my final fitting next Saturday (the 14th). I am nervous/excited to see how it turns out - she is cutting some flowers off of my train (I have more than enough) and adding two of them to my shoulder strap to make the strap look like it was designed to be there. eep eep eep!

OMG THIS WEEK IS GOING TO BE SO STRESSFUL NEED TO BE SO PRODUCTIVE

Cant believe it's getting so close!
I picked up my dress this past weekend, and I love it! It got me excited again for the wedding. I tried my dress on with a crinoline and I really like how it adds a little more poofy to the bottom of my dress to give it a better shape so it looks more like the professional designer pic of my dress. It's a little hot, so might just wear it for the ceremony.

WR - Meeting the DJ tomorrow for final selections. Meeting with the venue and wedding planner on Thursday to do our final walk and confirm details, meal count, etc. Wrapping bridesmaids gifts, need to pick out wedding night lingerie, pick up my ring from the jeweler, assemble place cards, buy vases, buy floating candles, need to buy my FI his gift. So much to do!!!

NWR - Get my ass in the gym everyday this week and also go tanning/teeth whitening

I went to a large group reading with Theresa Caputo this weekend (the Long Island Medium on TLC) and she was AWESOME. She read a ton of people (no one in our group/section, unfortunately) but she was sweet, funny, and really eerily accurate with her readings.

On a side note, she wore these Louboutin shoes and they sparkled LIKE NOTHING I'VE EVER SEEN BEFORE and I want them so bad now!

WR: Banging out our hotel bags this week. Still can't find those single-serve Advil or Tums so our search will continue! This week is the calm before the storm (next week!).

NWR: Finish painting the hallway and finish setting up the 4th bedroom/guest room for when my cousin sleeps over the night before the wedding. My FI surprised me over the weekend by setting up our home theater while I was out... he rarely does thoughtful things that so it was a really sweet gesture on his end.

LADY - you're an angel... thank you! It didn't even cross my mind to check Amazon

bells24412 · July 2012

WR: It is my FI's Bachlore party this weekend so while he is having fun I will be stuffing favors and hopefully finishing my place card tags and attaching them to my starfish. Then I hope to start wrapping my WP stuff. I have a date in mind that I want/need everything done by and that is the 20th since I am going to have no time in between to do anything. Next weekend is my Bachlorette party which I am totally looking forward to!!

NWR: Going to try and lay out a few more times so I can get a little more color, but not sure if that is going to happen. It seems like the only nice times to go to the beach is when I am at work. WTF. Other than that I am excersing my butt off this week. Other than that it is pretty quiet.

arunkumar · July 2012

WR: Finish ceremony programs tonight, final meeting/payment with photographer, final meeting with reception, finalize seating chart and finish escort cards (we are waiting on one couple to rsvp, argh!), set up final meeting with florist and make final payment, write and send wedding shower thank you cards

NWR: FI's birthday is this Saturday. I haven't gotten him a gift or planned anything other than making a special meal he requested, so I have to come up with a plan this week.

KatieK501 · July 2012

WR: Last session of pre-marital counseling tomorrow; order/buy wedding party gifts; buy wine and beer, plastic plates, candy, other last minute items for reception; get myself and all the stuff to decorate/set up for reception ORGANIZED!!
