A mere 15 days and I get to swear in front of friends, family, and God that I promise to take care of and love one person for the rest of my life no matter what. Well, lucky for me that's the easy part! The hard part is delivering the most fabulous wedding that anyone has ever seen!(ok maybe my expectations are a little high ... but you know ... reach for the moon .. or something) I wouldn't say that I have reached "panic mode" just yet, but I can feel it coming on. 2 weeks seems like it is so close and so far all at once and my perception of my list of things to do switches back and forth from manageable to overwhelming(which I guess is dependent on my perception of time, but that's a talk for a different day). Sometimes I do find myself in serious Bridezilla mode, but these days that mostly occurs on late nights when I'm working on the programs. I think that the best thing about the programs is that I got to buy a paper cutter! But that's it. I'd say about 20 programs in I began to question how important it actually was for guests to know who was who and what was going on. My vote is that it's not important at all, however I have already cut 500 pieces of paper into various shapes and sizes and so, I guess I must continue to assemble. But a word of advice, if you aren't absolutely positively sold on having programs and you're doing it yourself, pass on it, it's worth the reduction of your stress and anxiety. Or buy a paper cutter! Trust me, it's worth it!
I will definitely admit I moan and whine and complain to Alex about the wedding
Other things I'm excited about: My flowers. They are going to be gorgeous and I can't wait to see the finished product!!!!! I am very excited that I get to incorporate my two favorite flowers into the bouquets and didn't necessarily plan it, but I'm really glad it worked out that way. I haven't quite figured out what I'm going to do with the flowers that I'm saving though. Any ideas?
All in all I think I'm in pretty good shape. It has been kind of tough planning a wedding while I'm in and out of town and without the groom, but fortunately I was able to make wedding planning my full time job(when I'm actually around) so that has definitely helped.
I am still excited for the wedding, think it will be a total BLAST, and can't wait to walk down that aisle and become Mrs. Kroll!
