post script updated!

Here's our list, updated. it feels really good to have so much stuff done. that blasted crinoline is taking forever for me to make. mostly because it's not really that fun to make... behold, how good we are at doing stuff: (not the added first bullet point, while i did say my dress was a teensy bit small, i failed to mention that it was actually a lot too small. so i said goodbye to sugar and hello to 2 hour gym visits and lo and behold, it zips!

to do:

DONE fit into dress
DONE print invitations
DONE mail invitations
DONE get rental plates
HALF DONE make jewelry for bridesmaids (about halfway done)
HALF DONE finish making crinoline (multi-colored! awesome!Update: SO HARD TO MAKE)
DONE figure out extra silverware/napkins
print polaroid photos
take direction photos (eat this, sit here, etc.)
DONE write down cake recipes

HALF DONE buy music on itunes for em, email em/figure out music
