I am beyond exhausted. Usually at this time I have already gone on vacation but I have it postponed it until the honeymoon...and it definitly it is wearing me out. I haven't take time off to do nothing since January. I think I am long over due. hehehe

almost a month left for me...

Bklyngrl - are you still finalizing wedding stuff or can you relax now?

tonite's my mom's bday dinner,
DJ finalizing tomorrow nite in Staten Island,
Florist finalizing on Thursday nite in Bklyn,
dress fitting Friday night (back on LI)

I'm really nervous that everything goes well with the dress and makeup. Next week i'm taking 1/2 day off to pick up my gown and drop off seating at reception hall... so i hope to have a couple of days of nothing next week

Re: Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Everything is being finalized with vendors, with 26 days to go

Can't believe it!! I Think I'm finally at a point where I just want it already..but I think that will change when it is finally August

I have to finish buying some gifts, and order programs...but that's really it

How are you other ladies?

PLEASE do the no rain dance for our weekend . . . outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour - if i need to cram 190 people into the indoor chapel room - i will die. maybe i'll just have everyone stand outside anyway with umbrellas ?

Did you get all the tips and stuff together for the vendors?

Do you have all the stuff semi together for the reception hall?

Can't think of anything else at the moment....hopefully that is all you have left.
