So, things left to do:
Clothing: Wayne needs his shirt and tie and some funky socks, I think.
The boys need dress pants, shirts and ties. Andy and Joey still need to get their Chucks. Lexi's dress is still not in from David's Bridal.
We have our marriage license paperwork from the Brevard County Courthouse. We need to get their notarized and back to Florida.
Payments left: We have the final payment to DFTW, which is actually basically just the taxes and service charges. I think we are coming in right at the $12K minimum and owe like $1200. We have the final payments to the photographer, videographer, officiant and makeup people.
I've written the ceremony and sent it off to Rev. Glynn Ferguson but we need to write our vows.
I have started on the kids' goodie bags including the bound coloring book (I tied them with ribbon, my stapler wasn't long enough!) and crayons and a top. I need a couple more goofy things (goofy, not Goofy) to throw in and I can finish those off with one of two options. I can either use Mickey on all the boy bags and Minnie on the girl bags or I can use the character for their table where they're sitting and put the kid's name on the bag. I can't decide which.
I need to finish off the welcome bags and mail them off to Florida for someone to distribute. Right now they have the door signs in them and I've carded the buttons for each party. I want to do a newsletter with information for the guests about stuff. I think I'm going to go to Costco and get some snacky things to throw in. What else should I put in? The bags themselves are pretty cool but rather large. They're the reuseable shopping bags from the
Disney Store that I snatched up on clearance.
Cute, right? You'd be happy to get a bunch of goodies in one of these?
The last big project I have is our Halloween costumes. I want to smack myself in the head. We're doing
MNSSHP the night before the wedding, on Halloween. I must not have been thinking straight when I made that decision. So we're planning to have the kids out late the night before our wedding and I have to have us all dressed and cute and then the makeup ladies from Beaute Speciale are coming at 6:45 in the morning! Arrrgghhhh!
We're going as the characters from Up! Wayne and I will be Carl and Ellie from the Zoo. Andy will be Russell and I'm basically just putting him in his cub scout uniform. Joey will be Dug and I'm going minimalistic on the costume- beige clothes, a headband with ears and some face paint. Same for Nathan, who will be Alpha. Lexi will be Kevin and I'm making her a rainbow tutu to go with a royal blue tee shirt and black leggings. I'll either do face makeup for her beak or if I can find one on an elastic, I'll do that, plus some peacock feathers on a headband.
The packing and organizing is a little overwhelming.
Wish me luck, ladies!
