Not too much really, finishing place cards today. Had my last dress fitting last night Packing- this should be fun! A regular trip with the kids is fun to pack for! Adding on a wedding I'm excited to start packing then it will really feel real!

I just cant wait!

 

[keenercam]

Wow, Lisa, you've really whittled your list down. I'll bet that feels great! I can't even imagine how intensely exciting and scary all together it is to write that big check.

yep - I just went to the bank and did it!!! Yay! It made it seem really close!

30 days today! How exciting! And it is paid for and your to-do list is shrinking by the day!

Where did you go for your hair and makeup trial?

 

[Lisacope]

Yay - today is my actual wedding anniversary! Now we have actually been married for 20 years!

I went with a friend (who is coming with us) to the MAC counter at Nordstrom's and we picked all of the stuff and she is coming with us to do it at Disney!

I had one hair trial and I wasn't happy with how it turned out - I told the guy I wasn't sure how I wanted it and it looked a little to young to me - I am going to have another hair trial tomorrow with someone else and I am going to take some pix with me.

We still have plenty to do - I need to print the menu cards and do some more on the welcome bags and DD needs shoes to wear with her dress!

 

[lov2b@disney]

Happy Anniversary!

Your VR is coming very soon!

Lisacope,
I have a question for you....you are using Rev. Jack Day, right? By chance have you talked with him recently? Have you gone over the ceremony with him? We are using him also and we can't get a hold of him and we've yet to talk with him over the phone. I just emailed him our VR ceremony with vows. Just wondered what your experience with him has been? Thanks for the help.

Don't know if you've made a decision yet about the programs, but I made 250 for my sister's wedding (which by the way took FOREVER!!!!!) only to have the officiant change the order at the rehearsal and then walked by the trash on the way out the door on the day of and see tons of them in there!!!!! People don't use them or save them, although i think they should!!!
