@BrideOnBudget 16 more days until the wedding!
Wow...I can't believe there's only two weeks left until our wedding. That's absolutely crazy. So this post is just going to include a whole slew of things because I have so much to tell you.

@BrideOnBudget This seating chart is going to be the death of me.
Well, we have the majority of our numbers in for the wedding. It looks like we're going to have about 60 people at the wedding. Considering that we invited 110, that was a really high percentage of declines. Normally it's not that high, but considering we had a lot of out-of-town guests and also how bad the economy is, I guess we're lucky we're having 60 people there! I'm a little bummed that some many people can't make it, but there's not much I can do about it. It will save us a good bit of money and we'll be able to spend even more time with the people who are able to come.
I've been working on the seating chart and it's definitely giving me a headache. Most of my family doesn't get a long and then we're inviting a bunch of different groups of people. Like we have each of our families, and then we have family friends, and then we have work friends, military friends, etc. It's a little crazy trying to make sure someone knows at least someone else at the table and that everyone gets along. I think I have it figured out now though.

@BrideOnBudget What do I need to make sure to go over at my last venue meeting? They are not supplying food or alcohol.
This week, I'm getting all the final vendor meetings out of the way. On Tuesday we met with our venue and I paid off the balance over there. We also did a layout of the reception hall so that they knew where to place the tables. Tonight I'm going to my final dress fitting and hopefully no more alterations need to be done. Then on Saturday, I'm paying off my final balance on our cake and then meeting with our florist to see a bouquet mock-up (it's going to be gorgeous). Sunday I'm meeting with my photographer to pay off that final balance and talk about must take pictures and the time line. Then next week we're meeting with the DJ and that's it! Our coordinators are dealing with our caterer because one of them is a waitress at the restaurant. So, we're slowly getting everything out of the way.

@BrideOnBudget I've got an official tweeter for my wedding. I'll give you the information to follow the wedding closer to the date!
On other news, I have an official wedding tweeter! My friend Angela is going to tweet throughout the wedding day. I'm going to give her a hashtag to use (don't know what it's going to be yet) and I'll let all my followers know so they can follow the wedding day. I can't wait for her to be able to share her experience and pictures with you. I'm so excited!
