WR: FInished all 300 of our candy take out boxes. We also got almost all of the guys fitted for their tuxes and I purchased the glass holders for our unity candle and taper candles. Found them really cheap at Michaels!

FI and I also purchased all of the gifts we needed to get for ushers, pastor, singers, readers, and hosts!

NWR: Celebrated my younger brothers 20th birthday and got to spend Saturday with my FI!

We applied for our marriage license!

We finished our wedding ceremony outline.
We met with our DJ for the FINAL time to discuss everything.
Oh and how can I forget, our puppy broke the wedding flash drive

. But Best Buy thinks they can still get all of the data off it and put it on another one.

Not wedding related:
We enjoyed probably the BEST church service ever!
We sat around and enjoyed our final 34 days of being engaged.

WR: we took our photographers to our venue today so they could scout it out. Very happy to see it again.what was cool is we bumped into MOB from last night's wedding and she only had good things to say. I also got my eyelash extensions put in for a trial before the big day, so getting used to that. We had another dance lesson and it is going well. Also had a fitting for my dress and it's coming along nicely. NWR: finished the financial year at work on Saturday, so now it's a clean fresh slate from tomorrow.

WR: We finished writing our ceremony with my uncle, who is our officiant. We also chose all of our ceremony music. And I am almost done designing our programs. NWR: We spent the weekend in Chicago, visiting my uncles. We went to some excellent restaurants, saw a concert in Millennium Park, and got a private, behind the scenes tour of the Shedd Aquarium from my uncle's friend who works there.

WR: Mostly coordinating with vendors (hotels, musicians, etc.) about details. Worked on getting stuff together for wedding welcome bags. Communicated with the officiant regarding the ceremony so we could get going on programs and also to confirm the rehearsal time.

NWR: Work...FI and I both work almost every day.

starryangelz72 · July 2012

WR: had my first bridal shower with my FI's family, figured out our favors, finally, and we finished our programs. Hoping to get the thank you's out this week with the help of my FMIL

NWR: worked.

WR: Narrowed down dates & ideas for my Bachelorette Party with my 2 MOHs. Put a deposit down on the restaurant for our rehearsal dinner. And got the okay to use my sister's in laws' church for the actual rehearsal (so we don't have to drive 45 minutes to the venue to do it). Got some more RSVPs back - they're coming so quick thankfully! And changed some things with the florist & gave her another deposit toward the flowers. Also went and got my undergarments for theday of - Spanx are awesome btw! lol

This week should get a lot more checks done - hopefully!

NWR: Just hung out with my FI, been too hot to do too much outside really. Still trying to find space to put all the shower gifts away! I need a bigger kitchen quick! Now, winding down with some ice cream

dawnp917 · July 2012

NWR: We had a weekend away with very little wedding stuff on the plate. We went hiking, biking, and relaxed. Went to a market today and bought a couple of gifts for the wedding.

Ajoyd · July 2012

WR: We ordered FI's wedding band! And got our first three RSVPs. One was a "no" but no biggie it was a family member who I'm not really close with.

NWR: Cleaned our house for most of yesterday. With wedding stuff lately it had gotten really out of hand! We had kickball today and have just been hanging out.

random4180 · July 2012

WR: Bought all the attendant gifts and got a quote for the tent. We have about half our RSVPs back. Let everyone know when our rehearsal dinner is and ordered candles for the centerpieces.

NWR: FI worked an overnight shift on Saturday so I watched about a season's worth of old Law and Order: SVU waiting to fall asleep- of course woke up in a panic because it was morning and he still wasn't home and he hadn't returned my texts...remind me not to watch a crime procedural before bed and without my FI! Made him blueberry pancakes and went to the shore today, very relaxing and welcome day together!

WR: my FI and I finally touched base with the in-laws about their guest list and got a confirmation of how many guests they want to invite. The number is now down to slightly over 400 people (reduced from over 500). We've selected invitations (they go out late here, it seems) and we're placing the order tonight. Since we have to do a lot of the writing by hand, we're ordering 450 invites just in case we make mistakes. All my accessories for my dresses came in over the weekend too. Yay! The only things we have left to do are select music and find a venue for our rehearsal dinner (which is not a rehearsal at all, just a big meal out).

NWR: I've been busy with work and balancing exercise and healthy eating! I am now working the morning shift twice a week, so I am very much looking forward to early evening workouts on those days

KSParker2012 · July 2012

WR: had my first bridal shower Saturday, and got all the thank you's written! Order fiancés wedding band, worked on putting together programs and printed all of them. Bought WP gifts. NWR: went to see a movie tonight
