Time is ticking down so quickly now. I'm glad that I've had the last year or so to plan because I'm really only down to the final bits and pieces. I am so glad that when it comes down to the final weeks before the wedding I won't be freaking out about renting something here or ordering something there. I believe that I will be stressed but I have so much on my side that I can't help but have a good outlook. School will be out a full 2 weeks before the wedding. Holly will be here a full week before the wedding. I'm just about as planned as I can be right now. There is very little that still needs to be done. In the next month or two I need to get a ring bearer outfit and shoes, shop with mom for a Mother of the Bride dress, and schedule an appointment with a seamstress. This will be a cake walk.
Now the best thing that I have going on is the excitement that I've been feeling with the day approaching. A couple weeks ago I had the first realization that the wedding day is ACTUALLY COMING! It's not just something that I think about planning anymore. It's something that I can think about really happening and, when I imagine how the day goes, I get this feeling of... well, I don't know how to explain it but I'm sure it can be imagined. Something I've dreamed about for most of my life and it's almost here.
I know other really fun things are coming up too. I have a bridal shower and bachelorette party coming at the end of April. I'm also inviting all my bridesmaids as well as a few other girls that have offered help to come over to make some decorations, maybe address some invitations, and put together a few DIY odds and ends. I think it will be fun when I provide some drinks, music, and snacks. So many people have offered me help and I really haven't taken anyone up on it yet because I haven't had much for anyone else to do. I think it will be a good time and I'll send out a facebook invite for that soon. If you read this and are interested then let me know and I'll make sure you get that invitation.
