So I FINALLY found and bought the GM's attire tonight!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shop clothes for women, men, maternity, baby, and kids at gap.com. | Gap

 

Linen Amalfi Pants - Island Importer

 

Maine Isle Flip-Flops, Men's Leather: Footwear at L.L.Bean I was starting to "freak out" that we weren't going to find anything. Everytime we found something, there was an issue, so I am VERY relieved to have this one checked off the list! (cross your fingers that everything fits)

 

We also decided to add on 2 hours of reception coverage to our photography package!!! I originally didin't think it was "necessary" but now I think it's just as important to get the cake, garter, bouquet, dances

Woohoo, it must be nice to have that re-checked off the list. I'm thinking of extending my photography as well. How many hours total are you getting? I can never decide if we have enough.

My package is the same~ 5 hours the day of, she is coming one hour before the ceremony time and then a ttd the next day. I really have to do a wedding day timeline so I won't be freaking out so much about the photog missing something important. If I knew when things were happening I would feel better aboout it. I'll add that to my to-do list for tomorrow. lol

Yeah, I hear ya about the time-line. I need to do the same thing. I think this order makes sense for us hopefully

*Ceremony-Duh lol

*Mini Cocktail hour-We're doing most of our pics before the ceremony, so were only having a 30 minute cocktail hr before the reception starts

*As we make our entrance-1st dance

*Dinner/Toasts/Thankyou's-Dinner's on the beach

*Cake cutting-While it's being served (and after I rub it in FI's face, we will do our parent dances.

*After about 30 mins or so of more music and dancing we'll lead into the garter and bouquet toss!

I so want to save the DJ$$ and use an IPOD, but FI and my mom and sister are against it...so we'll be forking over about $1000 for a DJ -waste!

Thanks Dez! Well, I'm sure it will be great to have a DJ and if we had extra $, I'm sure we would have also. It will be nice for you to not have to worrry about "the order of things" and you'll be able to have a great time, while someone else does the song coordinating. Hopefully I don't regret doing an IPOD. I'll make sure I'm nice and drunk so it won't matter either way...LOL j/k
