Well, I have finished quite a bit in the last while - or so it feels like. I have ordered the last of the decorations, the ties for our ring bearers, my shoes came in yesterday (SO EXCITED!!), favours are ordered, flowers are taken care of, I met with one of our MC's to discuss the program for the reception and she is taking care of that, Jeremy's working on the reception music playlist, I am working on lists to give out to people (instructions/directions for the day before/day of the wedding).
The bridal shower went really well last weekend. I had a lot of fun and there were quite a few people there that I didn't expect which was a great surprise and I was feeling blessed that they were able to come.
My sister did a great job of planning and her and my mom put together a great party. Thanks!!
Now, there are a few other things that I have to work on:
- "preferred photos" list for photographers
- list for "Day Of Coordinator"
- list of instructions for ushers
- list of instructions for take-down of church
- list of instructions for take-down of reception decorations
- itinerary for wedding party, parents, coordinator, etc.
- thank you notes from the Bridal Shower
- small extras :)
I am very excited. 25 sleeps!!!

Meetings and the knot
We have a meeting in a few weeks with the Pastor who is marrying us and we still have to make plans to meet with our Catering Manager. I've also been reading that I have to meet with a florist but I'm not sure how that's all working just yet.
We'll see about all that. I feel like I'm at a bit of a stand-still with wedding plans right now. I think that I can't get a good idea for decor or plans unless I know the schedule, table layout, church decorations, and all that goes with that. I think my next focus is going to be getting bridesmaid dresses. I have an idea of what I want... it's just finding them.
I have been researching one particular site that has been a help: http://www.theknot.com From that site, I can build a budget, they have a checklist which has been helpful because it mentions some things that I didn't think of, they have a guest list manager which I haven't tried yet but once we get our list a little more concrete, I'll try it out.
Well, it's bed time for me now. Feel free to comment :)
