Anybody else feel like they're getting short on wedding time?

I feel like I still have a million things to do and I just can't seem to get it all done! I wanted to do my own table numbers, start the cardbox, schedule the rehearsal dinner, figure out the bachelorette party, decide on limos, I feel like I am not going to get it done on time....

Aww, I know. I am stressing over all the same stuff. i wanted to do menus, programs, cardbox, unity candle, all that stuff...I decided today that if I DIY I won't get it done. I'm going to splurge and buy some so I don't miss out. There are so many great vendors that I can just buy rather than make. Sadly, life hasn't allowed me to do all I wanted to the way I wanted it BUT...my wedding will be great. And yours will be too. Do what you can but know those little details don't define the day. Your love and your marriage to FH do!

I agree. I don't think that the little things, like making your own placecards, will make or break your wedding. I can't imagine, in 4 years or even 4 months, you would say 'You know, the wedding would have been soooo much better if the cardbox was prettier and my placecards would have been different.'

Don't sweat the small stuff! You will drive yourself nuts and not be able to enjoy yourself

Totally can't wait for the HM....tho the real one isn't until May.

One of my friends LOVES and swears by the straightening. I thought about doing it when my hair was longer but now its too short.

My parents live in Dix Hills, but i'm in Holtsville....i still have to decide which picture from our engagement shoot i want to order from the photographer for the wedding. I'l help you if you help me! It happened 6 months ago and I HATE almost all of them.

I used to babysit in Dix Hills, they lived just north of the expressway and just south of Wolf Hill Road. Do you have your epics in your album? I will take a look and give you my professional *bridal* opinion!!

Re: Anybody else feel like they're getting short on wedding time?

Re: Anybody else feel like they're getting short on wedding time?

You know what they say we are all our own worst critic!

Ever since cutting my hair i've totally regretted it. It was for a good cause (locks of love) but i'm just not used to it so short...the last time it was was more than 10 years ago...i needed a change but about a foot of hair was drastic!

I zoomed in with my camera and loaded them into the computer...we're thinking about using this one.

Well, we do have some savings, so we are unfortunately going to have to dip into that....and I am working overtime. Taking on tutorings and other side jobs. What else can you do? We don't want to be in debt. What are you doing to get extra money?
