Walk down the aisle & say I do!
Wow! Looking at this list actually relieves me because we have a lot of everything is done.
But, a quick glance at my real to do list brings me quickly back to reality.
Now,
it's just the little stuff - Eyebrow appointments, juice cleanses,
tracking down the non-RSVPers, paying vendors, teeth whitening, wrapping
presents - you know, all the stuff that doesn't get put on the list but
takes a lot of time.
I will say, I'm thankfully getting to a relaxing place and starting to get really excited for the entire weekend to take place! It's going to be one for the books!
That picture with the glitter is SPECTACULAR!! I want it.
ReplyDeleteYou've got SO MUCH DONE!! Amazing.
Not gonna lie though... this list still makes my stomach hurt. I think my stomach might hurt until... oh, September 24th.
Thumbs up to "not doing a garter". I can't believe people actually do it. It's just so inappropriate - why would I want my grandparents seeing a man up my skirt!?
ReplyDeleteI didn't wear a garter either and people thought I was crazy! Really isn't me though!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I didn't do a hair and make up trial either. I knew what I wanted by looking at bridal magazines and Pinterest so they were able to do exactly what I wanted by seeing pictures!
This is so exciting! Love reading about it.
Kindra
eeeeek! You've accomplished so much! I feels like you just got engaged and now the wedding is right around the corner! The party is about to begin; enjoy it girl!
ReplyDeleteLove following your wedding journey! Keeps me informed on all I have left to do. Eeeek!
