It's going pretty well, I think. Most of the major deatils have been taken care of- I think all that's left is to come up with some sort of placecards, and favors (maybe. I might just not do favors.). And shoes.

I know what you mean about it seeming "real"- it's so exciting but so scary too! I just hope everything comes together smoothly, you know? In a way, I kind of just can't wait for it to be over. It seems kind of ridiculous to have this much pressure on making one day of your life so perfect...shouldn't the simple fact that you're getting married make it special enough?

How are you doing? Is almost everything taken care of or do you still have a lot to do?

There's a lot of little stuff that's popping up now since it's so close. I know what you mean about wanting it to be over. That's the point where I'm at right now. There are so many minor details that keep cropping up and I'm thinking to myself, "enough already!"

That's way these things are...if we weren't driving ourselves crazy, it probably means we're doing something wrong, huh?

OMG, we're under the 20 day mark! How are you holding up?

I am starting to go crazy. FH's Mom invited a whole bunch of extra people- and they decided to bring their adult kids! So now we have almost 20 additional guests. OMG. I am beyond pissed at her- we were trying to keep the guestlist to around 70, and its pushing 100 now becasue literally noone declined and then she added all these extras! I can't afford this!

Aside from that, everything is going OK but I still feel like there's so much to do! We still need to finalize our readings and music for the church, I still need to make seating cards (and figure out seating), and we don't have any favors (are they really necessary?)...

I know! I'm a nervous wreck! I can't believe it's here already. I feel like I just got engaged! We did the table seating the other night and that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I'm just glad it's one thing I can check off as done. I literally have something to do every night until the day of the wedding.

Where are you going on a honeymoon? Hang in there...it's almost here!

we're doing seating this weekend- hopefully it'll be easy since we dont have that many people.

I'm getting so nervous! I havn't heard from my cateror since I gave them the final counts and every time I call to followup I just get the recording... eek!

It's sooo close!

We're actually not sure yet. We're going to wait until late Feb. before we go anywhere because I dont want to use up all of my leave (it renews in July so I'd be SOL if I took it all now). Where are you going?

And we're under two weeks...

How are you holding up? I fee llike everything is *finally* starting to pull together but I am starting to understand why beach honeymoons are so popular- laying aorund all day with nothing to do but drink margaritas sounds like bliss right now.

When's your last day around? I just handing in my leave form (if we do it too early they always get lost)- going up to NY next Wed!
