wow nancy time flew quickly for you!

Yeah I know, I can't believe how quickly it flew, but I'm happy about it. I want it to be here already!!!! Still, so many things to do, so little time. And I definately think I'm gonna have to make a lot of calls this weekend for RSVP's because the date is Saturday and I got like 10 out of 200. This probab;y happened to all of you, but I'm casually getting calls from family and stuff saying they can't wait, so I already put them on the Yes list without even getting the cards back.
I got my shoes over the weekend also, from the city, they look totally blinged out with like 3 1/2 inch heels, don't know how those are gonna stay on all night,

Hey, Soon2bMrsRP, I only had like 50 people at my engagement party and it was at Tandoor, so I didn't have cp's, but I wouldn't go crazy. You can do something small, like candles, or go totally old school, and put baloons, but save your better cp ideas for the wedding.

Happy New Year everyone - quick question - Do people have center pieces for the engagement? Ours is at the Sterling and we have about 300 people.

---

We had about 200 people.. and we had a decorator because we needed a mandap for the ceremony and stuff.. the cp's were included in the package for the guest tables, and some other stuff as well but we had buy seperate flowers for the head table..

But if the cp's weren't included, I wouldn't thought about it..

Sure, she usually goes by referral and she's a close family friend of ours so tell her a friend referred you - her number is 516-294-4481

Hey Girls -

I was wondering if any of you know a good place for a garba - we were really just looking for a hall that we could rent out and then set things up ourselves....we'd prefer something in suffolk but any ideas would be great...! thanks so much...

Does she thread/wax? I've been going to Mehak's on Hillside Ave, but I think I need to find a new place

She does thread/wax - she's a little more expensive then those places but she does a good job - doesn't hurt at all.

I'm looking for a garba hall as well - I was looking at this thread and it seems like people were having garbas at akbar, sterling and other halls like that - I was looking for more of a basic hall where I could do the decorations myself - let me know if you hear anything.
