two more checks!
Hey ladies I checked two big things off my todo list yesterday I'm so excited I had to share! We put the deposit down and signed the contract on our reception venue and ordered our save the dates!! FI picked them out! I'm shocked at how involved he's been in the planning so far. Happy happy happy! Hope you all are having a great weekend, has anyone else checked anything off their list recently?

<div>It sounds silly, but it seriously took like, weeks to do it. We just never found the time, and the hours of the jewelry store didn't really work with our schedules. I knew the ring I liked and seeing it again confirmed it, so it was an easy shopping experience...but it just took a while to get to the actual store and buy it!</div><div>
</div><div>And, I may or may not have tried it on like 2 times since we bought it. Ok. 4.</div>

<div>Every single time someone brings up looking for wedding bannds, my mind immediately goes to rock bands, not rings. WTF. I am always so confused.</div>
[QUOTE]I stuffed 40 of my tears of joy packets (I'm planning on making 100). I'm still trying to find ribbon and the necessary printer cables so I can print the labels and programs. Saturday FH & I are meeting with our ceremony coordinator, so hopefully she'll be able to give me direction on what to include in the programs. Hopefully tonight we'll be able to video chat & work through another page of our workbook - but it may not happen because he has to work until 8. I'm planning on ordering the invites at the end of the month. I need to figure out how to finish off my bouquet and make it look nice. Still so much to get done... But I'm surprisingly not stressed out about it.

Awesome! I'm a little surprised at my lack of stress... I'm wondering if this is the calm before the storm. Mine and FI's work schedules are completely opposite so we've literally spent all of our weekends planning :/ he works 7am-3pm and I work 3pm-11pm so we don't see each other at all during the week :'(
I bought two picture frames from the dollar store and am painting the glass of those with chalk board paint. They will be used in the photobooth.
Thats all I did.
ETA: We also bought FMIL's gift too.
