Finished making Bridesmaids and Flowergirl Gifts
Redid my earings
Tied the ribbon on the last 2 votives
Worked on Rehearsal Decor Layout
Weeded
Brett purchased sparklers (twice because the first ones were the wrong ones! oopsie!)

STILL waiting to hear from vendor. If anyone future Bride reads this… don’t expect COURT IN THE SQUARE to be responsive, and/or on time. STILL waiting for our estimated costs, menu, etc. almost 1 week away! We’ve called and/or emailed almost every day this week. Hopefully they will call when they actually want our money.
