8) I finished up the pomanders today as well...but I didn't take a picture of them either!
9) Printed the labels for our centerpieces
10) I also made the guestbook sign

Update

Hello everyone! I'm so excited as the time quickly passes getting me closer to the day I get to marry my love. As this time is quickly passing, I'm left with less time to get my projects done. Currently on the list: printing programs, dying the garter and the flower for the RB pillows, assembling programs, and fluffing out the tissue paper flowers. Tomorrow will be 2 week left until our wedding day; I'm oh so excited because I really don't have that much left to finish and FI is nervous, at least that's what he says. 

As for the house, the sheet rock is all hung, and will be sanded by the end of today. They will be back to do the ceilings and knock them down Monday. Now, we'll be painting this week coming up. I REALLY need to get the wedding stuff finished and put on the back burner until the wedding so I can be helping with the house as much as possible. 

I don't have pictures to share right now, but I will later :)

Paper Progress

Here we go. 
I finished the escort cards this evening.


I also am still in the process of printing programs, but I printed all of the first and last pages. Next step, print the inside pages and assemble!

I bought the flower to go on the ring bearer pillow and will be dying it soon (with tea/coffee, I hope) to make it ivory. 

I bought a garter and some bahama blue dye to make it my something blue. 

Bought scrapbook paper to use as our 'guest book' (stole the idea from my sister-in-law).

The labels for the centerpieces came so I need to design them and get them printed.


Tablecloths for Reception and tulle for the aisle came today.
Progress...it feels so good! :)

DIY Progress

I made some DIY progress on my day off yesterday. I'm excited to be making progress with some wedding stuff. I completed the rough draft of my program and the FINAL draft of my invites yesterday and made mock-ups of each! Lots of pictures to share!

Keep in mind: this invite is only laying on the brown layer laying on the gatefold invite and that my doggie was walking around on the bed messing everything up...so it's not nice, neat, and lined up correctly.

Now on to the trial/mock-up Programs:

Plan a Wedding?

Now that I'm done with school, and there is less than 5 months until the wedding and I've got to get B-U-S-Y with planning our wedding. Tomorrow on the plate for after church is making a couple of the new envelope liners with the new paper I bought. I need to decide if I want to use the silver/white paper or the blue paper to line our envelopes. Next on the plate is our invitation design. I have one now that I can use, but I'm just not 100% satisfied with it. I'm going to start working on a new design in my spare time and hopefully have a decision made about the final design within the next two weeks. I'd also like to get started on the ceremony and getting a program started. I've got to get the Bridesmaids dresses ordered (still waiting on two of my girls' measurements) as well as find someone to alter the dresses one they come in. I'm beginning to feel a little overwhelmed since 2010 is right around the corner.


::deep breath::

Off to get some rest. My first day back to work today really made me tired.
