October Brides!
So I total feel like a Murphy's Law bride lately. Everytime we turn around one of our cars breaks and not just like something stupid like major. I had some serious bridesmaid drama over the weekend where I still am not talking to one and not even sure is she is coming to the wedding now. I caught a cold and feel like **** but have 0 days left to take off at work due to the wedding in a few weeks and our honeymoon. It has been insanity at work also and a coworker has not been doing her job preventing me from doing mine. I have been slacking on getting stuff done for the actual wedding cause of everything else going on. Now all the weather sites are saying it is going to be cold windy and rainy the day before and the day of my wedding. Is it just me being a jinx or something?

Ugh girl I feel you. I got a flat 2 days ago on our way to get our marriage license and I took it to pep boys, turns out i needed 2 new tires and my inspection was due so that was a nice $300. I used a credit card I paid off because I need as much cash as I can for the day of the wedding and I'll pay it off after the wedding.
I also kicked a girl out of my wedding party because she was like non-existant in my life. I don't regret it at all.
I've been on accuweather tracking the extended forecast and it says thunderstorms for my wedding, but that's october 10th.. my bridesmaid/best friend who is a meteorologist for Fox 5 said don't even look at it because it's not accurate.
Don't worry about it, no matter what it's not about the wedding, it's about your marriage, and it's going to be beautiful no matter what!!
