Aaaccckkkk! Exactly 30 days to go and I want to shoot myself!

Well girls, I have 1 month to go and I am definatly feeling the pressure and hate almost everyone in both of our families!! Let's see... I got into an argument with my father last Friday and walked out on him( it's so much fun having step-families...enough said! )

Of course we didn't want to have any kids there except the flower girls and ring bearer and we now have 12 kids coming!!! One who rudely put 3 on her response card when it was suppose to be only 2 (there's one in every bunch!). We tried to have FMIL call them and tell them NO but she didn't really fight for us because she didn't want to get into a huge arugement with her sister over her sister's daughter's kid coming so now I have another little brat coming

I have been so nervous I won't fit into my dress and everyone keeps telling me not to worry that you lose weight at the end. I now know why... I have hardly been eating anything the past 3 days and have lost 4 lbs so far from being aggrevated and always running around doing something for the wedding.

Oh I could go on and on but I will spare you the rest of it...thank you for letting me VENT!!! I can't wait for it all to be over already!!!!

Calm down! I am October 12th as well and you wouldn't believe what I have left to do! Just take it one day at a time

OOOOO Honey I feel your pain!!!! LOL I am going CRAZY!!!!!!! I seriously dont believe that im gonna fit into my dress, and my family is INSANE!!!! MY FMIL now wants to have 2 freaking songs in a row to dance to w/ my FH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHo the heck wants to see you dance ten minutes?!?!?!?! UGH!!!! My mom still hasnt gotten her dress in- it will be in a week and a half before the wedding!!!! She tells me today she really hopes she likes the color!!!! She better like the color!!!!!!!

What do you have left to do??

Ladies I am so sorry to hear this!!!! Hugs to you

whenever I hop on BHB the chaos comes SPEEDING BACK!!!!

You WILL get to that day. You WILL fit into the dress. NOBODY will notice that your FH's silly family wants to hold a private dance party....

It is so stressful. My advice. Make sure to take some time - at least one day - to not rush it. The rest of this month you'll be counting down the hours..rushing through September and then when you are a NW, the BTB's will ask 'what did you do the two weeks before to stay calm and organized'? And you won't remember a THING!!!! That always makes me sad. I don't remember the 'last October' as a single little girl.

Take a day. Go to the church or location - even drive up the driveway and park there with your wedding planner/binder. Organize all your notes. Make a list. Just tune out all the family stuff and nuttiness, look at your engagement ring all on it's own for just a little bit longer, and imagine the moment when that band gets slipped on your finger. The preparation is such a special time. You WILL stress for the most part. So disappear for a few hours - enjoy a minute of it!

I too am 10/12 & can't believe how long my to do list is!! Praying I'll get it all done . . without hurting somebody in the process cuz folks are working my VERY LAST nerve!

Well, it just keeps getting better...I just found out that my mom and stepdad have pnemonia(sp?) and they live in Phoenix so now I am freaking out because my SIL told me they can't fly if they still have it. Also my mom hasn't even gone for her first fitting on her dress yet and she is suppose to be here in a little over 3 weeks!!

My stepmom's dress isn't even in yet because she only ordered it less than 2 months ago. She HAD to wait till the last freakin minute to order it.

My MOH can't get her act together to organize my bachlorette night and the BM's are starting to drive me crazy!!!! These are grown women with children who have all gone through this before you think they handle everything themselves!!


On a good note, I started to organize what is suppose to go where (church box, reception hall box, etc), wrap most of the RD gifts ( 5 rolls of wrapping paper later), dresses up the cake box a bit ( just added some silk flowers and some berries), also made the candle centerpieces for the RD. Also I think I have the table seating down after changing it about 20 times. We also finally went for our engagement shoot (took us long enough)

Still have to make the RD invites, call the favor lady to add about 6 more favors and drop off the Baci candies, get our documents from travel agent, make an appt. with dj and pay 2nd payment, go for first fitting (next wed), send the rest of the guest names to Candy Reflections for candy seat cards, finish making bathroom baskets and rose petal baskets, if I have time I would like to make hotel baskets ( don't know if that is going to happen ).....I'm sure there is a million other things but I just can't think right now. How is everyone doing??? What do you have left?? Maybe it will make me remember what else I am suppose to be doing.

Thanks Jenny 11.9....what you said really helped

We'll all be here for you!
