Two Months and Counting!!

Two months until the big day or 8 weekends before the "big" one. Unfortunately I was unable to post this past Friday. With the days winding down before the wedding I have been too busy to write. Although it's been fun to plan the wedding I can't wait to have my life back. All the wedding planning has made it hard to focus on my master's project and classes. Anyway here is an update on my to-do list from last week. As a reminder here is the list that I made:

1) Find a wedding band for me--still looking with no luck
2) have Casey e-mail guys about attire for the wedding
3) address and send out invitations. My goal is to have them sent out by Sat, at the latest -  With the help of my FSIL the addresses were addressed and mailed out on Thursday. We did realize that we were about 10 invitations short so I will be sending those out this week. But I am so glad this one is out of the way.
4) make wedding & parking signs
5) buy paper lanterns

Other checks from last week & week before:
-found a make-up artist for the wedding. I don't wear make-up and I don't plan on wearing much for the wedding. But as a gift to myself I am working with Diana Varga.
- found a wedding "cake" topper from a seller on etsy.com- Great shop check it out: lynnslittlecreations . I found this seller from reading: :http://chelseagetsmarried.blogspot.com/

So the list for the rest of this week:
1)  Keep searching for wedding bands
2) e-mail groomsmen about wedding attire
3) buy paper lanterns
4) make wedding and parking signs
5) schedule make-up trial run
6)  make final payments for DJ
7) send in updated contract for caterer.

On another note on Sat, April 16th I had my bridal shower/bachelorette party in Columbus. It was amazing. Columbus was the central location for my bridesmaids (2 live in my hometown, one in Pittsburgh, one in C-bus and 2 in Cincinnati. My MOH (matron) and maid of honor did an excellent job and we had a blast. I am still recovering from Saturday night. I only have picture from the night posted but I will be sure to post more.
