Holy Shit, a Wedding Approaches
Bwah, ok - less than one month to go before the wedding, and I had my first horrific breakdown Friday before last. It was great, let me tell you! Basically, I was feeling two things. 1)Overwhelmed by the sheer amount of STUFF that has to get done, and 2)Realizing that this is not at all the wedding I wanted and that its too late to change any of it! Hooray! Well. Planning wise, we've gotten a lot of stuff done, checking shit off the list is incredibly satisfying. Wedding-I-want-wise, well - I'm not paying for it, so it isn't really my wedding anyway. It'll be pretty, the food will be good, and I just have to remember that.
Planning wise - we got the cake, my head piece has arrived, we have the rehearsal dinner set, we got the flowers, we have dance lessons, we sent in the RSVPs. Though several of those have their own drama. Still to do - seating chart and escort cards, finalize the playlist, finalize the ceremony, make sure my brother in law can legally PERFORM the ceremony. Other stuff too, but that's the big stuff.
Also, lose the last little bit of weight before the wedding. Gah. I keep doing really well, then eating kinda shitty and drinking too many beers over the weekend. I mean, I'm pretty happy with where I'm at - but it'd be nice to be a few pounds less.
Had the bridal shower on Saturday! It was good times, family and friends, tasty food, lovely presents. Also got the thank you notes out today, LIKE A BAMF! I am not gonna be one of those brides who waits until the year is up before sending notes - those things are going out the second I get the gift (pre-wedding) because I DO NOT WANT that stress!
Buh. Like, 25 days to go, I'm dying. Also, got shade thrown at me when getting my passport. The guy (who was otherwise very nice) just "didn't understand" that I'm not taking Palmer's name. DEAL WITH IT. Palmer is fine with it, so you, random stranger, should have NO OPINION ON THE MATTER.
Ahem. What's up with you?
