New Ideas

So, I've been noticeably absent from the blogging world as I've been super busy getting out of the Army and working on school stuff. But I am back now that I am just a student with lots of time to kill.

Tonight I looked through an old wedding magazine and saw a picture of some paper garland that I love. I wanna use it behind the candy bar to really make the table stand out. Here it on this bluk party supply website:



I got some in yellow and some in white, so we'll mix it up a bit... I just have to figure out how to hang it from the ceiling since they are only 12' high and I'm sure the ceiling is higher than that. I also bought some yellow tissue paper balls to use at the rehearsal dinner, or where...just in case.



It seems a bit cheesy to use paper decorations, but I saw them in Martha Stewart Wedding magazine so it must be chic!

I need to think of other things that I still have left to do and take care of them. Here's a running list:

  • Print and assemble invite and response cards
  • Build escort card box
  • Create and print escort cards
  • Create and print table number signs
  • Finish photobooth and wedding signs
  • Stick labels on favor bags
  • Order candy
  • Order alcohol (figure out what we're doing with sour mix)
  • Order stuff for and assemble guest bags
  • Order stuff for and assemble bridesmaid bags
  • Buy other wedding party gifts
  • Choose groomsmens' outfits (and groom)
  • Make beauty appointments
  • Scout pre-picture location and determine any requirements (cover windows, a/c, etc...)
  • Make music selections (arrrrggghhhh!!!!)
  • Book honeymoon
  • Book Vegas for bachelor/ette party
  • Make final payment on dress and pick up
  • Find bridal lingerie for underneath the dress
  • Make cake tasting appt and choose cake
  • Finalize linen issue with caterer
The list goes on and on!! I am so glad I still have almost months to go. Woops, actually we are nearing the 5 month mark. We're at 5 1/2 right now, I guess, so time's a tickin!
