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!

Re: Official July 2006 Thread
i am so confused about the hair and make up thing. im in bklyn and i dont know much about who or where i should go. any suggestions? i didnt buy any jewelry or shoes. i guess i was looking at the big things, and completely forgot about the zillions of little things left.

My FI wants it down and straight...Personally I want it to be up and with the weather so far I am think I am convincing him of the benefits of it being up
