3 days
Tomorrow is my last day of work before the wedding! I'm working from 7 until 3 and then I'm off to do wedding stuff for the rest of the day! Thankfully, I'll have Jess and Cris here to help me with the rest of my to-do list, including the out of town bags!
We got a gift yesterday from CJ and Andrea that we finally opened today! It's the storage chest for our silverware! (Well, once we get the good silverware, it'll go in there.)
And good news is I'll be able to bring most of the reception stuff to the Biltmore tomorrow!! So excited to get it out of my house!

Caesar Salad
37 days
234 invited
137 attending
46 declined
RSVPs left: 36
We FINALLY got two more RSVPs today...and they're both declines:
-Matt's college friend, John
-Matt's cousin, Andy, and his wife, Erin
I also got a verbal RSVP, a decline, from my former dance director/teacher, Susan, and her husband, Britton.
My bracelet from Lia Sophia came in today! It is SO pretty and will be perfect for the wedding!
We also got a wedding gift in the mail today from Greg and Liz! It's our salad bowl and servers from Crate and Barrel:
Now I just have to write them a thank you...
The house for the bachelorette fell through over the week and so now we are looking for something else. I've asked to do Providence on Friday night, staying at the Biltmore, and then Saturday in Boston for strippers!

Day Three

Third day in a row with no RSVPs. It makes me so sad when I open the mailbox and there are none.
I ordered Matt's gift today! It was only $22.95 and shipping was free! It should be here in 5 or less business days! I'm going to give it to him before the wedding, since it's for the honeymoon, so he can actually use it!
I don't know if I mentioned it the other day, but someone bought our camera for us off our registry! It's one of the few gifts I'm going to search for after the wedding so we can use it on the honeymoon! Here's a picture:

I'm super excited about my alterations on Monday! I can't wait to put my dress on again!
I also finished spray painting the rocks last night! They came out great!

Down to the Nitty Gritty
86 days
218 invited
56 attending
14 declined
Only one RSVP today from Shannon and Mason! They're coming! (Obviously.)
I FINALLY got the packages that UPS had been holding hostage for almost a week. And I was right about their contents!
The first was the last of the centerpiece supplies! Which means that I was able to finish them tonight! I'm so happy that they're done and now I'm down to 3 DIY projects! Here's a picture of the finished product:
The second box was our luggage! It was a gift from a family friend for the shower! It is SO nice and I'm really happy with what we picked out!! Now I can't wait to use it for the honeymoon!!
I got two other packages in today that were small: the socks I bought for Cole and the shoes I bought for my sister Hannah. Both are really cute and will go perfectly with the rest of their outfits!
AND I bought the clutches for our moms! I got them from Etsy seller syl2830 and they're going to be in the colors of their dresses. Can't wait to see them, but here is the generic picture:
Only one more day until my shower! Holy crap!

From the Registry to Our Home
173 days
Matt and I are back home in Rhode Island now! We got to scope out the gifts the other got from their families. Matt's godparents gave us a six-use cake dome from Bed, Bath, and Beyond that was on our registry and I have been wanting for months! His parents got us a GREAT Calphalon knife set and block as well as a TON of candy! My grandparents gave us money that we'll be able to use towards the chapel. My parents got me Pampered Chef martini glasses that match the wine glasses I already have. Matt's parents bought him a really nice watch (that he's told me he'll only wear on special occassions because he loves the one that I got him for everyday use) but it has to be resized. My siblings got me a candle holder and some candles to go with it from Yankee Candle that I LOVE.

Jack-in-the-Box
174 days
I was talking to Matt last night before bed and he was telling me that his parents got us the knife set that we had wanted and was on our registry!
My parents had us open the gifts that got both of us yesterday, as well. They got us the toasting flutes from Mikasa that we want for the ceremony! They also got us a $50 gift card for Kay Jewelers to help us buy our wedding rings!

Tomorrow we're opening gifts with my grandparents and aunts because my Aunt Alicia was at her in-laws for Christmas this year!
