My dress alterations - with seamstress; final fitting scheduled.
Fiance's tux - initial foray with solid results complete
Attire for male attendants - initial foray with somewhat less solid results complete
The rehearsal dinner - um.... we think it will be the Thursday before the wedding. Does that count?
Contract signing for shuttles - Done! Sent! With accompanying check!
Contract signing for ceremony musician - Will be drafted and be accompanied by deposit.
Cocktail hour musician(s) - Acquired. Contract & deposit as above.
Finish learning to dance - yeah, about that.
Honeymoon plans (and Peter's passport) - Plane tickets purchased, decided to go with an apartment in Paris, since timeshares fell through. Passport happening Friday.
Wedding bands! - Ordered! One ready for pickup, happening Saturday.
Select readings for the ceremony - Decided to leave this to readers.
Ask readers to participate - Not yet, but we have everything so we're ready.
Registry - A living document, but quite sufficiently done.
Build wedding website - Same as registry.
Finish invitations - DONE. Couple of B-listers still potentially getting invites. 50% response from A-list.
Reception decor (centerpieces, guestbook, card box, etc) - I've thought about this a little more, but that's about it.
Other fun stuff:
Seating chart!
I warned you that it would end up being a large system of stickies. Well each of 10 (or 11) sections the size of the area marked in blue represents a table of ten. Couples were written on stickies twice the height of individual people. Then we just moved and moved and moved people until it all worked out well. Silver dots represent members of the wedding party, black dots represent those who have RSVP'd affirmatively. Some tables are currently set with 11 guests, but we expect someone at those tables to either not attend or not bring a guest, bringing those tables down to ten. Some tables only have nine guests at them, which is okay.
So I guess we really are making progress.
