This will be our special day that we can combine with my birthday since that will also be my birthday. We will be celebrating our anniversay withhour DW date, but this way we can celebrate both and no one else even has to know.

We got legally married on my birthday, too! It was way fun. We had a few family members there who couldn't make it to the wedding, so it was special for them, too.

Maura, when we were on our honeymoon, I kept telling Isaac that we had to go somewhere nice for dinner (at the AI!) because I still had cute dresses to wear!

[Maura]

^^^hahaha mandy that's funny!

 

august brides, how's everybody doing?

 

we got our marriage license yesterday at lunchtime, so check that off my list! my legal day is in 17 days!!!

 

i still have yet to finalize the stupid centerpieces for the tables for cabo... hmmm... i should write out a to do list today at work

[becks]

I'm checking things off my list left and right!

 

Bags are done, contents are designed and ordered, menu cards for the welcome dinner are printed, waiting on menu selections for people for the wedding dinner, but I'm getting them laid out as I get the info. Had my second dress fitting yesterday (LOVE my dress!), Bought FI's shirt, shoes and (surprise) tie over the weekend. Luggage tags are done, pre-travel brochure is designed, welcome book is almost done, I've started putting ribbon on the fans and the wedding rings should be in next week.

 

Not much left. Have to book a make up session, my final haircut and color, go to my last fitting, buy cufflinks for FI, confirm all travel arrangements, make arrangements for transfers to the hotel for everyone, do a seating plan, have a legal ceremony, pack and fly! Woohoo!

this august bride is sweating her ass off in very sunny AZ, but things are going great. Still need to get FI's suit, need to set trail hair appt (it's with my best friend's sister, though, so I'm not too worried yet), I'm finishing printing all the paperwork that'll go into the OOT bags, we still need to sit down & choose the ceremony music, I need to send my starfish to my WC....that's about it. It feels wierd to be so "done" so far in advance, because when I work with groups in town I always have to deal with the last minute crap from the meeting planners. I love being the client for once!

 

I've set up my next couple of waxing appointments for I am nice & bald (almost) for the beach. I do still need to figure out where I'll be getting a massage on the day before the wedding.

 

Ahhhh, I wish it was 2 months from now & we'd be in Hawaii already!

[Maura]

today i paid off the balance on our videographer, so glad to have that worry off my chest. now i have to finish coming up with the money to pay the photographer. got jose's tie over the weekend (havent had a chance to post a photo yet) and got our marriage license yesterday.

 

--i have to pick up my civil ceremony dress and my cabo church dress from the seamstress tonight at 6:30

--and then i need to print the couple invites for our civil ceremony and mail those off tomorrow morning

--i need to finish arguing over centerpieces with my WC and get something pinned down

--need to finish the DJ questionnaire and burning all our songs to CDs

--need to put together the BM gifts and get them ready so i can give his sister hers when she is here in just over 2 weeks. still thinking about mailing the other girls theirs.

--OMG i HAVE to finish writing the wording for our civil ceremony this week and send to our officiant to read over.

--need to get my ass in gear on my programs for cabo. i found a good template, just have to substitute all our own info into it and then print & make them pretty.

 

that's all i can think of right now on my immediate to do list.
