RSVPs today:

We went to the grocery store tonight and finally dropped off Nick's invitation. He lives in the same building as Ryan, so we talked to him and found out he never got his invitation. We got their RSVPs as yes, obviously, and their food choices, plus Ryan's plus one's name. So now we are up to 117 guests!!
Finished the favors tonight!! We bought more Hershey Kisses and Starburst Jellybeans to finish the last 21! Here are the jellybean ones:

The Borrower
63 days
225 invited
106 attending
27 declined
RSVPs today:
-my former coworker from Gap, Katie
-Matt's parents' neighbors, Joe and Nellie, and their son and caretaker, Tom (declined)
-Matt's mom's friends, Liz and David
-Matt's cousins, Sean and Julie (declined)
I took Chase, one of our ushers, to get his tux measurements done today. After waiting for 30 plus minutes without being helped, we finally got him measured. Thankfully, the guy was young enough and knew how to measure and use the computer. Now, I just have to drag Ryan in to get his done.
When I got the mail, the rest of the fans had come in from Oriental Trading! I may have to switch the baskets for them and the bubbles, though.
I also got my something borrowed in the mail! My mom sent me one of my dad's name tags and here's a picture:
I also finally sent my mom the skirt for her dress! And then Chase pointed out that he was going back there tomorrow and could have brought it. Gee, thanks.
Last, the girls have found a potential house for the bachelorette! They're thinking this is the one which makes me so excited!!

Last Single Weekend
111 days
Currently working on: escort card frame pictures (7/7 done)
My family and I had a girls day yesterday (we have them once in a while and just eat all day) and we got a lot of planning done! My mom, gram, aunts, and I got most of the shower details nailed down as well as the menu. My aunt is addicted to Pinterest (which I hooked her on) and she had some great ideas that she found on there. We picked out what we'd be eating and decided on a bunch of different cupcakes for dessert! My other aunt also said she'd do the Ring Pop favors which I'm super excited about! Two of my bridesmaids, Jess and Shannon, also got the bachelorette itinerary done as well as starting a list of items for a bachelorette scavenger hunt! I'm so happy that we got so much done! Everyone is really spoiling me with these things.
Once Shannon and I got home, we went to Nick and Ryan's apartment with Matt to hang out for a while. They had started to plan Matt's bachelor party (for the same weekend as my bachelorette) and Nick told me a little of what they have planned so far: one of the local strip clubs (one of the nicer ones Providence has to offer) on the first night and then staying in a hotel near Foxwoods and gambling the next day. I'm really excited that they're starting planning!
Matt and I have decided to go through the invitations and give some of them out in person to save on postage (mostly people we work with and our wedding party that lives around here). I don't know if it's tacky, but it'll save a little money. However, they're still required to send the RSVP in the mail since they are stamped!
Tuesday we are going to meet with Scott and finalize our menu! I'm going to order the table menus that night as well as invitations for my parents' 25th anniversary party this July! So exciting!
