I feel like I am never going to be done.



I know! I keep booking stuff and feeling happy, and then I write a list of what I need to do and it is SO long. Lots of tiny things I never even thought about before planning a wedding!

After booking the florist, I'm going to call it quits for a couple of months. Okay, I'm going to try . I need a break, it was too overwhelming at times. No one ever answered my question about their flowers and the weather
