Awesome!! Thanks for all the posts, everyone!

@ Sally we totally are. it was the one thing i noticed about other peoples wedding, we never "formally" hear from them. aside form socializing with everyone, it gives us a moment to say thank you and acknowledge how much it means to us to have everyone there. i'm emotional and good with words so i'm sure FH will just have me speak but its important to me.

On my agenda for this week!! Thanks for sharing ladies.

Bump! I need all the help I can get with the timeline also

Following this because I need all the help I can get with a timeline. Thanks for sharing ladies!
