So many little things
Though I feel like I have a million details swimming around my head, things are beginning to get done.
I’ve booked mani, pedi, hair and make up for me, including trials, and made the offer to my bridal party (who are very slow about getting back to me — nudge, nudge).
We paid off and picked up our rings! The day we did, I think I showed them to everybody I ran into. They are so pretty and I am so happy with them. Now the question is whether to get them engraved before or after the wedding.
Travel arrangements have been made for James’s father’s side of the family.
I have recruited help to cook the rehearsal dinner.
I just ordered the bulk of the material for the napkin rings. I had some debate over whether or not to go through with it, but I’m really in love with them. Plus, I only have to make 100, and I have three days off next weekend. Completely off, from all jobs. Even if I only do 10 a day, that’s only 10 days.
The invitations are at the printer. We will see a proof tomorrow, and then Joe has promised me I will have them before the Fourth, so I can use my three days off to address them. I really want to get them in the mail that following week.
Progress is being made. It’s getting exciting!
Edit: Oh! I almost forgot! I also booked Joel Blumert, local guy and awesome blues guitarist, for our cocktail hour.

Where did you end up booking your hair and makeup? I’m considering getting someone from NY to come up, but since it’s really just for me, my MOH and my mom (maybe Reed’s mom too), that’s just 4 people! Not really enough people to ask someone to drive 2 hours.

I’m using Shine Hair Spa in Lakeville for hair and Skintastic for make up and nails. They’re in the same building.
According to my MOH, their price for up dos is really expensive. She’s using her girl, who is in Millerton at David Gavin (people love that place; I’ve never been, but my MOH has never had a bad hair cut).

Thanks for the tip!
