[quote][b]devon57 (7/11/2008)[/b][hr]Haha, what bank do you work at Candice? I'm a TDer myself (parents signed me up with Canada Trust when I was a kid, then it merged with TD).

Do any of you brides run into TONS of people having their wedding on the same day as yours? I work at a bank, and about 5 or 6 couples that have come in are getting married September 6th...craziness...Everytime one of them says it, I want to know their name...just to see if it's Devon...haha.

There are tons of little things I need to do and I just don't want to think about them until like I absolutely have to! LOL

Oh yeah. Also need to buy the marriage licence. I'm sure there's lots of little things I can't think of right now. *sigh* I'm never planning another wedding. Too many details!

Hey sbru - you can use whatever colours you want! None of your guests are going to pooh-pooh your colours because they aren't "autumny" enough. And if they do - well, they suck!

I still need to:

-pay for pretty much everything
-attend hair and makeup trial (already booked)
-rehearse first dance
-pick menu
-give numbers to venue, make seating chart (once all RSVPS are in)
-give list of required songs to DJ
-fix farmer's tan!!! (curse you and your false promises Neutregena Build-a-Tan! Why won't you get any darker???)

Due to my father being in a motorcycle acciedent it's looking like instead of a July.19th bride, I may be joining you ladies in September! Not sure the date yet, as I'm not sure how quickly my father will recover... but he's doing well so far.

Since we basically found out it would have to be postponed only yesterday... I have a lot done because it's suppose to be almost 8 days away from my wedding!

Hope everyone is doing well. I do have some stuff left to get done:

-Buy Bra.
-Ceremony Shoes.
-FH's shirt & tie.
-Get Music together.

Also, if my wedding happens it'll most-likely be September.20th or 27th..
I have summer colors for my wedding, Pink--Periwinkle Blue and Yellow.
I'm not liking having these colors for a September wedding, so I've been thinking about keeping the pink and yellow and changing the blue to another color? Maybe a deeper blue?
What do you ladies think? Are my colors good? Maybe just have Deeper/Darker colors (darker pink, darker blue, yellow).

I still need to:

plan ceremony, get tuxes for the boys, go for DANCE lessons, get my invitations out (top of the list), get candy buffet boxes, book honeymoon (last minute...don't care where), make menus/programs, get cardbox, get lingerie and shoes, hair and makeup trial, book string trio, get flower girl and ring bearer situated (have the FG dress..that's all. It needs to be shipped to North Carolina to make sure it fits), block hotel rooms for guests. Determine transportation for the day. Whatever...don't want to think about it!!!
