Oh wow, I'm getting married on october 10th. I don't know if I have read that you said that earlier and I forgot or what. I don't have a list of things left to do cause it stresses me out to think too much in advanced, so it's just what I have to do soonest.
For our guest book we are doing a guest quilt. I'm piecing together the top (but only in large chunks so it's not tons of little fabric pieces and not one large piece) and having people sign it. It's something you can think about doing.
instead of a bolero how about a pashmina and then give your bridesmaids pashminas as part of their gifts...
Just remember, if you start getting too stressed that you don't really need programs or favors. In the long run, think of the weddings that you've attended...how important were those things to you as a guest? Would you have wanted the couple to have stressed themselves about those?
So, good luck and have FUN!!!
I also did a wedding quilt for our guest book. It would be a good way for you to use your napkin fabrics as well. Here's a link to my quilt for you to look at. And don't get too stressed.

good luck on all of your projects! i can not wait to see them all! i made fabric bunting for the kids rooms and instead of sewing, i made teo tiny, tiny holes on either side of the top and I strung twine through the fabric. they turned out reall good, and it saved time.
What is a pashima? Hmmmm....
