Re: October brides -- can we have another check-in?

oh goodness rings are another whole story -
i ordered the ring i am getting him - ( we decided they dont have to match ) and he is going to be having mine made to fit in with the very beautiful but oddly shaped engagement ring i have - so his will be here but i have to trust him that mine will arrive on time

Re: October brides -- can we have another check-in?

So, I guess I'm officially an October bride now!
I just set the date with the Church on Friday & set the deposit in for the reception today!

So, I think I have the most left to do. I haven't even asked my cousin to be my MOH yet!
