Dudes, we are 81 days away and we have 81 to-dos left to handle!*


Here is what is left-over from September
1. Create our Macy's registry.
2. Get an officiant (I know some of you have offered but this is Zach's thing)
3. Send out the invitations (At lunch today I am going to go buy the evelopes)
4. Get Zach a suit
5. Book our wedding night hotel room

This is what I would like to get done in October
1. Create Centerpieces
2. Order favors (I know I was anti-favor but I found something awesome!)
3. Order flowers
4. Talk to people about wedding readings
5. Get guest lists for Shower and "Hen Party"
6. Buy Wine
7. Talk to Amy about the last of the design stuff (Stickers for Favors, Table Numbers, Announcement**)
8. Book our Honeymoon.

Hey, gwangi is there anything else we need to do? I think the cake waits until closer. Also, are we having a receiving line? I think I vote for walking about while people are eating. Oh! We need to order milk.



*Actually, it is now 77, I like that theknot has a nice task list but some of the stuff is repetitive.
**Did I mention I have a huge family so my parents want to send out announcements to the people that weren't invited.

If you walk about while people are eating make sure you eat your dinner first. We did not which meant we did not get to eat.

That is a good tip. I have actually seen it happen. I think we are going to be served first and then we will hit up the tables as everyone else is eating and chatting.

If you have someone willing to do it, I would highly recommend appointing an official cat herder for your wedding. Getting people to go where they need to go when they need to go there is the absolute worst part of the wedding day. That includes getting the bridal party to sit down and get some food in them so you can make the rounds. Much easier than coordinating photos, but still a pain.

Sassle frassle, cat herding.

My brother has offered to do the cat herding. I did it for his wedding and he is a kindergarten teacher so be will be good at it. :)

Idea for announcement: Snapfish postcard? Then you can use one of melissa_maples's gorgeous photos of the two of you and just plug in basic info.

Or I can design something, too. :)

I was actually thinking about doing that for both the accounments and the Thank You cards. Easy peasy.

I'll talk to you about the sticker next time I see you.

totally - snapfish is so simple to use, and they produce quality prints/cards.
