The Clock is Ticking Down...

We're almost to the point where we can get our marriage license!  Wow.  Time is moving so fast.

We also had a meeting with our caterer.  It, too, was really fast.  Like, 20 minutes.  We either were so prepared that it was easy or we were so unprepared that we couldn't decide anything.  I think it was mostly the first one, with a tiny bit of the second mixed in.  But it was nice to chat about it and get a better idea of the day.  We picked linens, and showed them a prelim layout.

Lets see...  We also have the invitations in our hot little hands, and are slowly working to get them sent out.  My only concern is... HOW IN THE WORLD CAN I PRINT ON THE ENVELOPES?!?!?  I used to print on envelopes alllll the time at my last job, like, seriously, every day.  So for these I did a mail merge, I got it all formatted, and they won't even PRINT.  Not even print in the wrong place or print with the wrong font or anything, they just refuse to print anything.  The printers don't recognize that I'm printing a document.  I am so confused.  And I've tried on the work printer (shhh...) and at home, and tried with 3 different computers!  I just think that printing directly on them wasn't meant to be.

So labels it is.  I already gave up and printed labels for the RSVP envelopes last night, and got those prepped.  Also put stamps on 2/3 of those.  Used our sweet return address stamp on the back of all the main envelopes too.  All the invites have ties around them and the hang tags, and I've numbered all the RSVP cards with invisible ink (just in case).  All that is left is actually slipping the RSVPs and their envelopes into the ties around the invites, then putting them into the envelopes with the labels (but I want to get the labels on first so I can keep the numbered RSVPs in order...).

Really hope I can get these invites sent out tomorrow or Saturday!

We made a huge to-do list that still needs to be filled in...  So that isn't helpful yet!

And we had our first counselling session last week, which basically was telling us what we already knew (we're awesome, but I can be stubborn and he/we can be passive and pushovers, so I need to listen to him more and not always get my way.)

And the game plan for my bachelorette has been set, and the first of my bridal showers is coming up soon!

So lots has been going on, and life in general has been crazy.  I should break this down, or at LEAST add photos, but I will try to do that by topic later.  Geesh!
