Finally!

Invitations are finally - almost done. Let me explain. I have all of my invitations assembled but the majority of them are missing one component and all of them are missing another component. I will be making a map of direction to the church and reception locations and I don't have the information on my home computer. I will be finishing those on Friday which will be a pretty quick task to complete.

The other part is individual cards that include information about registry, accommodations, our wedding website, etc. and I'm just waiting on some more paper to come from my mom's friend (Whisper White by Stampin' Up!).

Also, good news: dark blue wax arrived for the centerpieces. I am thinking I am going abandon my original thought and change it up a little bit. I'm going to make up one first to just check how things look and I'll pick the better look! It'll be awesome.

Another thing is that I got "tissue" (not "Kleenex" brand) packages for the church and I decorated those up a bit and I completed them tonight.

I have a few things to do before I go to bed but Good Night for now :)

Things Are Arriving...

So I love the Internet! I have ordered lots of wedding stuff online and now it's just waiting until it all arrives. A couple days ago my table number stands and my string lights arrived. Last week, my ribbon and candle things arrived. Today my invitation envelopes arrived. Things are progressing nicely. I'm beginning to think that there's only so much you can "pre-do" and then it's a bit of a rush the last few days.

Jeremy and I were in Swift Current this past weekend and I found some more candles for the church. We were visiting friends and then family in Eastend. Then we were in Medicine Hat for a night and headed to Tilley for the other side of the family's Easter meal. Mom and I put together one of the centerpieces and I think they're going to be really nice. I'm excited to see it all come together. I hope it works out nicely.

Well, now I have to wait for a few more things. Paper, mailing labels, return address labels, and a couple more centerpiece elements.

I think I'm getting most things done in good time.

We still have to:
- pick out suits/tuxes for the guys but I think we're going to wait until Kevin gets back from Nova Scotia.
- decide/pick out flowers
- order bridesmaid dresses (I have them picked out already)
- REGISTER!
- a few more others I am unsure of right now

One of these days I'm going to have to write out a few detailed lists. One as a checklist, a couple for select people on the day of the wedding (assignments, checklists, etc.), one for things to remember to take on our honeymoon, things to do when we get back, lists for programs, thank yous, and many many more... Good thing I like making lists.

Until next time,
Rachelle
