We also were able to pick up all the groomen's ties, the grooms tie, one for South County Boy's dad, and one little one for our Ring Bearer while we were in Utah! (yup. Southcounty boys nephew whos 2 and 1/2 right now will be our cute little ring bearer. We arn't having a flower girl as of now). We are giving the ties as part of the groomen gifts since we aren't requiring them to rent suits (black slacks, black jacket, white shirt) & our tie. I think everyone already has these except for my "bro" and South County Boy has a suite that should fit for the wedding.
My future mother and law is mailing out the invitations and reply cards for Keith's side of the family to save on postage costs for Keith and I (she's also sending out some of the invitations to family memebers as "announcement" type things (i'm glad i ordered extras.) I think we will meet with the Stake Pres and the Bishop this week, and then i'll mail my california invites out.
My Utah bridesmaid and I picked out her dress last week (its the cutest out of all of them) and my future mother in law found a cute skirt/jacket combo for cheap in a really pretty blue that will go with the color skeme. I also tried on my dress for her to see while we were there, and all they had was a size 10, and it fit (was way tight tho), so i'm not worried about getting into my dress next week!!!!!!!
