Update on Limo, invitations and everything else

So, I am back from Cancun and trying to get back on track. Cancun was fine, a nice break from everything and I got a tan. Can somebody tell me why we only have 3 months left? I am not panicking, just making an observation...

The florist that Leticia recommended is a go, ladies, we have flowers! I am going to go over there this weekend and sign a contract and put down the deposit. As for the other things on the to-do list:

• Todd is in charge of getting the limos checked out so hopefully he will get it done by this weekend.
• I am going to cajole Todd into going to the Tux shop on Saturday...anybody knows of any good tux shops?
• I think I may have found some "Candle Shades" that we can use to create the centerpieces that will go on the tables with Candles: http://www.save-on-crafts.com/glcycash10in.html. I am going to order 4 of them so that we can do a trail run...this gonna be fun!
• Invitations will be stuffed and in the mail by July 23rd. I already have two volunteers, I just need to figure out a date and time because its a bit involved.

So is it a good idea for me to schedule an get together for the Bridesmaids and the Groomsmen to meet before the wedding or is that overkill? Also, I am in the market for a headpiece...nothing to big so please feel free to post your suggestions. In fact, I am starting to develop quite the wedding shopping list:

• Broom
• 44 candle Shades & Candles
• Some sort of creative place card arrangements
• Gifts
• Cheesy "bride-to-be" t-shirt
• Guest Book
• 3 dozen votives (will that be enough?)
• Christmas white lights
• Dried Branches
• Vases for dried branches
• Seat Covers
• Fuscia Menus
• Programs
• Ring for the Groom

I am feeling pretty badly about not being able to invite my team right about now, but our collective offices amount to 40 people! Finally, I ordered my dress 12 weeks ago and still no word from the Bridal shop...would it be to paranoid of me to call and ask what is going on?

Ummm Where is the Bride???

I know you're on vacation and you soooooo needed it. I just thought I would post something and show a couple of pics to get you a "pink" moment going when you saw this.

Update on Decorations, Limo and Invitations

I did go to Whole Foods this weekend and met a somewhat interesting person in the florist department but I don't think that is going to work. I also met with a florist in Roselle Park on Sunday who promised to get back to me with pricing by yesterday but I am still waiting. On the positive side of things, Adaobi, Ebony and Lakshmi helped me to develop a real plan for decorations so I am feeling better about that. So now I just need to find a limo and order favors and I should be in good shape for now.

The invitations have already arrived and they are in my house awaiting to be shipped. At some point in the near future I will go to the post office to figure out exactly how crazy my postage bill is going to be.

My boss just let me know today that the inital scope of my project that is due to roll-out in September is bigger than I initially thought. I am sure that he thought he had made this clear from the onset, but none of us really got that feeling...I love when that happens! So needless to say I am feeling a bit stressed at the moment but I am sure I will pull through. I guess no beach days for me this summer!
