If my calculations are correct, I have 31 more of these posts until the Big Day- uh yikes, what did I get myself into?!? I have been questioning myself on what I would write about this week and I have nothing. So, Instead I am going to ramble.
I’m asked at least every other day how planning is going. In the beginning I loved that question- it was new and fun and I had so much to do. Now, not so much. Maybe because I’ve been doing it non stop for the past 6 months. Maybe because it feels like it will NEVER get here. Either way, I still force a smile and respond “GREAT!” in true happy bride fashion. Don't get me wrong, I am a very happy bride but this planning sometimes feels like it’s for the birds.
However, the past few weeks have been an exception. I have made so much progress lately that I’ve actually caught myself hoping that someone, anyone and everyone will ask!
A few months ago, I ordered my bridesmaids gifts (all the way from Ireland!)… well half of the gift. Like everything else, it was waiting game until they came in and I could actually see them. I. am. in. love. I did order myself “one” and I am already wanting to “use” them!
As mentioned in last weeks post, we got our proofs back from our engagement pictures that also included our save-the-date shot. We immediately sent the picture to Tara to get started on them and as of today, they are approved and finalized! I looked at them over and over and over again before finally making a decision. I am praying she does not give me that many options for the invitations or I am screwed, for lack of better terms. Indecisiveness at its finest. Oh and John- well he has expressed a little bit of obsession over them but shh don't tell him I told you!
Last but certainly not least (drum roll), THE list is finally coming together. It may have been forced as I can’t send save-the-dates without it but it’s getting done nonetheless. I have come to swear by the “wedding list” function on The Knot.
I don't even know if I define wedding season the same way others do, but our wedding season is starting to pick up. So far we have 7 weddings between now and June 2012, exciting but scary. There could be many more.
First up- Scottie and Austin. yay! Did I mention it is in The Highlands and we are having an adult mountain weekend? double yay! We are throwing a shower Friday for them and I can’t wait to share the excitement via the blog with all of you!
