  • Church and reception hall are reserved
  • Pastors - picked (complicated when many of your friends are ordained)
  • Caterer - automatic when you get the reception hall
    • food tasted (seriously this is the best job ever - I would love to do this every night for dinner)
  • Cake - person selected 
    • working with her to go back and forth about selecting exactly what we want - who knew there were so many amazing options
  • Photographer 
    •  Fiances uncle and a friend
  • Hair appointments 
    •  reserved for bridesmaids and me

  • Bridesmaid dresses (ordered and several of them have picked them up)
  • Invitations
    • I just picked up at the printer this past week
    • envelopes are addressed, stamped, and return address on them
    • I need to finish stuffing them and drop them in the mail hopefully today or tomorrow

TO DO:
  • Groom, Groomsmen, Ushers tuxes 
    • picked but now we need them all to turn in their measurements
  • set up golf outing for the guys
  • make a fabric banner
    • fabric is all cut just needs to be tied to the rope

    • in process
  • figure out groomsmen gifts

  • Put labels on mason jars for people to write their names
  • Make food for rehearsal dinner
    • this can't be done until later
  • Flowers
    • have a date set with the florist to look at flowers and pick them and all that happy jazz
  • I need to clean out my closets and kitchen. I know I have been saying I need to do this for months, but push is finally coming to shove and I need to seriously get going through all my stuff and get rid of some, keep some, and seriously make room for Marc and his stuff.

  2. Listen to you - so organized! :) I am sure it feels like you are leaving something out (man, I always felt that way) but if it's important then it will come to you! :)

    I don't remember if this was on the list or not, but have you already picked out the readings and songs/music for the ceremony? That was one of my favorite parts!!! I'd love to know what you chose!

    And I don't see your e-mail address posted anywhere, but mine is posted on my blog - would you mind shooting me an e-mail so I have yours when you get the chance? Thanks girly! :)
