Much wedding stuff has been done this week!
Have seen caterers, dressmaker and priest!
Have requested MCs!
Have been to the dentist for the first time in about 4 years!
Have requested photographers!
Have reminded various people about RSVPing and have gotten more RSVPs.
Have had wonderful Jackie emailing and organising wedding favours.
Have not done any exercise for 2 weeks :(
It is madness, but things are getting done.
The catering talk was great. The caterers are my cousin and her husband, who own a spit roast company. Their wedding gift to us is extra staff and desserts! Awesome. They were really good with helping us get this all organised as they have been at the venue before, plus have done about a million weddings. Plus, they had a thai-style wedding too, so can help us get a better idea of that side of it.
I need to order the boning and busk for my wedding underbust. The dressmaker is happy with the prototype and she wondered if I wanted to make some for her shop. Also had a workmate ask if I'd be interested in making one for her niece. I've decided I'll try to make one for muggle for her 25th present, I might also make Bambi one for her 21st. I'm not worried about making them for gifts(big event gifts), but I'm not comfortable about getting paid to make them.
The priest was super cool. I'm really happy with our decision to have a priest at our wedding and with my personal decision to allow any future children we have to be raised in the Catholic faith. I realise that an interfaith wedding like this used to be impossible. However, the church is moving with the times and I'm happy for that to be a part of my(our?) life.
I'm worried a bit about the photos. Beau and I have decided to save that $2K+ and have been asking people to be "official" photographers. Please volunteer if you wish! I don't want it to be an onerous task for anyone.
Beau is calling the reception venue to check on that end, he'll also hopefully be calling the monks and making a time to meet up again with them.
I have just printed off the Notice of Intended Marriage! Good Work Giffy! Paper work shall be done!
I need to buy shoes, wedding undies and bra and possible wedding jewelry.
Beau and I need to talk to Mum and find out who the person organising the thai wedding stuff (water pouring and string binding) is and how to get in contact with them.
Need to talk to make-up/hair person.
Need to get rest of RSVPs. Actually need to deliver a few invites still!
Point of Fashion: It shouldn't be this cold
I do NOT need to tell you what the current obsession is
