Update!
I'm going to try to answer everyones questions....
Thank You all so much for the encouragement!! I have calmed down some what and am trying to focus now! lol

1) We have the church booked!

2) I have my wedding dress!

3) We have my Maid Of Honor's dress (pictured below)

4) I think I'm going with Chocolate Brown, shades of pink and champagne for my colors.

5) We are having about 30 to 40 close family and friends.

6) I found an awesome rental place to rent everything that I will need.

7) I went back to see the baker to find out if they would still be able to make our cake..... *drum roll please* ....... YES even with such short notice she will be able to make our cake on our date!! She even gave me more information to help with cost!!!

8) Invitations.... I think I'm going to get some Brown card stock and have invitations printed in cream. HAS ANYONE DONE THIS???? Where do I take them to have them printed?? Does anyone know cost? ANY HELP WITH THIS WOULD BE HELPFUL!!

Thank you all so much!!

Get thee to Michaels if at all possible!  they have pre-made invitation kits in brown and cream for sure (I know because I really liked them but I'm using black and white!).  Printing on your own computer if at all possible is probably your fastest bet at this point.  Most printing places take at least a week to get things done (maybe try vistaprint - I hear good things from a lot of brides about them!).  If you could even get them printed up over the weekend and sent out early next week you'd probably be in pretty good shape!

Food?  Do you have a caterer and venue?  Are you doing an at-home set up?  There is a LOT of nice brown decor type stuff around for fall right now.  30 or 40 people should be manageable.  You sound like you've got a pretty good handle on things already.  Just remember to breathe!  Good luck!!!

I think it would be easier to have a local print store print off your invitations on cream paper than DIY.  It takes A LOT of time to set up and print on your own computer.  

I'd suggest a stationary place nearby you (Dick's, Staples, etc.) or a FedEx or UPS store, if they offer those services in your area.  They could also centre and cut the paper to the desired size.

So you want the invitation wording printed in cream? Well you could try Staples/Office Depot/Office Max or whatever, but if you do, make sure you get an FULL QUOTE on how much EVERYTHING will come to. If you read on my blog I had a horrible experience with Office Max because the MANAGER really misled me into thinking how much I would be paying. But they only took a couple of days to do my printing (and I was getting more than wording printed). Or print them from your own computer if you are savvy and can format them nicely. I tried printing some Save the Dates and I don't know if it's my type of printer or what, but close up the words look really pixelated. I know that no one will probably notice, but I notice and it bugs me! But good luck with everything! Looks like you pretty much have it all figured out! :-)
