Spin off to Mini Meltdown
Figuring that I might be confronted with these emotions on the big day, I decided to call some of my vendors today to check in on things (which in hindsight wasn't the best thing to do.
Tuxedos: They don't have all the guys measurements. The one missing is FH's responsibility to phone in. He's had the email from the GM for 3 weeks.
Dresses: The drama with BM dresses continues. The dress that was ordered in the wrong size doesn't really fit BM. The alterations were so bad the BM had the salon completely undo everything except for shortening the straps so they don't slip off her shoulders, but everything else they did was apparantly HORRIBLE!! She is short waisted and they tried to take the dress up unsuccessfully and let out the waist to try and compensate. The waist was already 4 inches too big, while the chest area which couldn't be let out was 1 inch too small. She made them take the waist back in and let out some gathering they tried to do to compensate for whatever.
Video: I confirmed who my videographer would be day of (it was one of two owners). Confimed details regarding start time etc.
Limos: Eddie at Serenity! One of the reasons I hired Eddie was b/c I was convinced he would make me laugh the day of if I was stressed. I left a message with his awesome secretary this morning that I was a stressed bride and wanted to talk to him. As I thought, he made me laugh for the first time today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday I met with the DJ and did must play/do not play lists and finalized ceremony music. Programs will be finished as soon as I can get them through the copy machine at work. Then comes the task of folding them and tying ribbon.
Tonight I meet with the photographer.
Can I breathe now????????????
