Jrb-We don't have quite 70 people, but we are having 54 people and there was no question about that. Chili's is a big restaurant so you could fit probably up to 100 in there. I do know that you will have to pay at least $20 a person for each guest if you want the private dinner and I maybe more b/c the Caprice Package is only good for so many guests.

 

Celestial-Where are you going in NJ?

Wow Dana - you have 54 going! That's awesome.

Yup, 54 people! I was suprised myself. I have a big family and I'm the first niece/grandaughter/child to get married so everyone is excited.

I went today to get my second attempt at a make-up trial done. I went to Bobby Brown and I nearly had a heart attack when I got the counter and they announced my total was $621.00, I was so embarrased but had to say there was no way I could pay that. I had to elimate things, but hopefully it won't make that big of a difference. The good news is what she did looked awesome. Afterwards my mom came over and we packed up all my welcome bag stuff and the good news is we got it all into 2 bags and we weighed them and they are both under 50 pounds. We used old luggage and just going to leave it down there. It's crazy I leave in a week, but I feel like I'm pretty ready now!

Nic-Congrats she is adorable! I love that we are having alot of people, but it is alot more work too!

Celestial-I can't wait to hear about your experience dress shopping, I hope you find your dress. I know the Wayne area b/c my friend lives in Wayne.

Celestial- I also hope you have fun dress shopping and find the one!

 

Dana- WOW, i cannot believe that it came up to be that much at the make up counter... Crazy, I didn't even know make up could cost that much, lol....I am so jealous you leave in a week, i CANNOT wait to see your pictures!!!  Also 54 people is great... We have 34 and I am soo excited about that. Although, we don't have enough for a private reception (which i really didn't want to spend the extra money on anyways) but we have over that 27 number so we are going to be stuck with that late dinner at 8:45. I'm kind of worried about how late that is with our 3 oclock ceremony!

 

Well, I did that whole 3-day cleanse this week. I lost 5.4 lbs! Now I just need to work hard and make smart decisions to not gain that back. Oh yes, I also created my programs for my raffia fans and maraca tags on vista print last night!! Can't wait to get them in!

Jen-I wouldn't worry about it too much. If people are hungry they could grab a snack at the buffet. Did you already talk to the coordinator and she wouldn't budge on the earlier seating?
