Pix. Sucks that you couldn't get the cheaper rate but I hope it's a load off your mind and you can get to the fun part of wedding planning.
Yes, yes it is! I think I've finished most of the planning/coordinating at this point. I've bought dress, bustier, and shoes (still need to get dress fitted and get shoes dyed, but that's on my to do list for next week); reserved flights and hotels using miles, points, and cash; coordinated travel and lodging for my friend Kat (a NYC professional photographer who is going to take our pictures as her wedding gift to us!!); reserved the restaurant where we're having the ceremony; reserved wedding coordinator who's taking care of the ceremony details; emailed officiant about the ceremony (though there's still some more details ND and I need to work out with him); reserved and paid first half of LA reception venue/food; oversaw design, gathered addresses, and sent out Save the Date cards (working on invitation design with our friend C. now); worked out a date for the Northeast informal celebration with my parents; designed/created wedding website; figured out registry options and set that page up, including registering for some "stuff" for those who don't want to do the charity or other option; bought ND's wedding band and am currently having a similar one designed for me since they don't make the same ring in women's sizes....um....I think that's everything. I still need to take care of a lot of details, but the big stuff is mostly done.
Sorry, that's a lot of wedding rambling. I don't think I'd realized how much I've done in the past couple of months.
