Re: October brides: What have you done/what is left to do?

All I have left is: Flowers-Know exactly what i want just have to book 3/13 Invitations-need to order Favors-need to order BP gifts Parent gifts OOT baskets Purchase: Unity and memory candles, hurricane glass, personalized bag to break glass Yarmulkes programs and some reception stuff but I have a feeling they are going to be given to me as gifts(ie:flutes, cake cutter etc.

OMG YES!!! I don't know what is coming over me.... last night we were watching American Wedding (American Pie 3rd Sequel) and I was BAWLING like a big baby!!! I NEVER thought I'd get like that. FH was laughing hysterically at me and I said, better that I get it over with and out of my system now so I don't look like this slobbering mess on our wedding day!!

Re: October brides: What have you done/what is left to do?
hey jimmys bride. I'm a 'jimmy's bride too' you're also not alot in the 'weepy dept' all I did the first few weeks of planning was cry...at everything. One time, I was actually at a photographers studio and starting bawling at his slide presentation everything is so exciting and I think it just takes awhile for it to sink in that what you've waited for your whole life is finally here. good luck
