  Yay! Big checks for you.

  
  

  I'm feeling the same way, libby. I feel like I'm so on top of everything I must be missing SOMETHING and that's stressing me out a little bit, lol.

  
  

  FH & I have a meeting with our ceremony coordinator in two weeks when I'm there, to go over the ceremony timeline/details/etc. I got our invitation print samples!!! They look amazing. I'm waiting to order them until FH can see it in person. I bought the stuff to make our Tears of Joy packets - now I just need to find my printer cables so I can print the labels, haha. I've started buying stuff for the programs, hopefully our coordinator will be able to help out with what goes in them. OH. AND. My dress will be here by the end of the week!! I found a place in Indiana that will do the alterations, so I'm going to check them out when I'm up there too. 

  
  

  I wish we could have one weekend together that was wedding free... Hopefully we'll get all this stuff out of the way and figured out and we'll be able to do that soon.

  lplions you are doing awesome.  Way to get a ton done.  What is a Tears of Joy packet?

  
  

  Unfortunately we won't be able to work on our programs ahead of time.  One of our readers isn't a 100% sure he'll be able to make the trip due to family obligations.  We have someone in mind for backup, but she doesn't know that she's a backup, she's like a second mother to me so that helps a ton.

  
  

  We are going to periodically start buying stuff for the welcome bags.  My dress is sitting at the bridal shop, they already did the bustle and hemmed it, but I'm waiting til a few days before the wedding to pick it up, figure it's safest there.

  Yay!! 

  
  

  I just put down our flower deposit yesterday, and the only deposit we have left to deliver is for the DJ. Cake, photographer, venue, and everything else is already done. I still have to order favors, guest book, and the other "little" details.

  libby, I'm using this tutorial to make them.

  
  

  I need to start figuring out what we're going to be including in our welcome bags & bathroom baskets. I'm hesitant on the bags because I have no idea how many people are planning on coming. I know most of my family is planning on being there, but. Who knows the actual numbers. 

  
  

  As for my dress, it was either leave it in Colorado and me stress out about it, or them ship it to me. So, it will be safely tucked away in one of my closets until I need to haul it up to Indiana with me for alterations. And yea, a ton of progress and yet I feel like there's still so much that needs to be done... And I don't even know what it is anymore. Sigh.

  Those tears of joys are ubber cute.  I'm not enough of a DIY'er but they are cute.  

  
  

  I'm just putting a list together right now for the Welcome bags.  I found a few lists that have stuff for the bathroom baskets, so I'm going to just keep an eye out for stuff on sale.

  
  

  My dress is a few towns over from mine, so I figure it's safest at the salon.  I have my final fitting in July and then I'll be all set.  We'll figure it out then if we are taking it with us or leaving it at the salon, but right now I'm leaning towards leaving it.  Just need to find a place to store it, my sister has two boys and a dog, and knowing my moms luck if I leave my dress at her house her house on top of a hill will flood ha ha.

  
  

  Once we put the deposits down on the honeymoon I'll go through our list to figure out what we have left.  I keep feeling like we have some major stuff left that I'm forgetting.
