I tend to agree with having it in October and having the build up to the day, but I think we're going to chance it and do it Nov. 1st anyway. I just realized we're going to be out of town one weekend in October and thus takes away one weekend of preparing. I'm hoping we get as many people as usual and everyone is still in the spirit. It's our third time out and I'm hoping it's the best. First year was good, last year we had some minor glitches, like everyone showed up on time! I'm hoping we have everything tied together really well this year and we don't stress out too much on the day of.
