Done! Sort of...

Well, for our Sept. 2001 wedding, we booked the last of our vendors, on of all days...Christmas Eve!! After being disappointed with two other companies, I was starting to get discouraged, but felt a little more upbeat when Royalty said they would meet with us on Sunday, Dec. 24.

I could not believe the selection of cars they had. They didn't just have one Rolls Royce, they had a bunch! And they weren't in the shop, they were right there in the garage for us to see, except for one which was out on a job (but was the same as one in the garage).

I'm getting married in March and I'm not done by a long shot! I really better get going!!! :o) Good luck ladies, its terrific to have so much accomplished but try not to sweat it if you don't.
this week. I'm glad it's over. You will look back and say to yourself, 'What the hell was I worrying about!' The only problem with Mary Anne's is that it is one person doing hair. That can be tricky when you, the bride, take up the most time. At Paula's, my mother was done way before me. But the girl did take a very long time with my hair. Christie's said that the reason why they charge the same for trials is that they are styling your hair as if it was the wedding day! The other places don't waste their time doing it that way. So if you go to Christies for a trial I would time it just to be exact. Maybe at Christie's they have a few knock around headpieces

I always have this paranoid feeling that I have to get something I like when I see it, or it won't be there when I go back for it. I guess with the wedding I didn't want to be hit from a vendor telling me they were booked, so we've just been really diligent about getting everything together.

Unfortunately, I don't think getting the girls dresses is going to come so easily. We kept the party small, just the best man/matron of honor, plus one usher and one bride's maid. My bride's maid works with me in an office of just three workers which limits our days off together. Add to that the fact that my matron of honor lives out of state and travels standby, and it has been making it next to impossible to get them together to try dresses.
