We need some thankin' on these boards today!!!

Original post by JessicaM.

I know that we all come from different situations and have families able to do different things, but the most important thing is to be thankful for any and ALL help that is provided.

Can we each name at least one person that has come through for us during wedding planning in a nonfinancial way that really helped see us through?

I have to say my mom, tho she's helped me financially, she's also helped me in so many ways all throughout my life that I feel I need to acknowledge her!!

Def FH, only with his support and encouragement am I able to do half of the things that I accomplish.

And of course, you ladies, who keep me in line about what's really important and has contributed more to my wedding than any of you will ever realize!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!

I want to thank everyone on here for all the times you've calmed me down, gave me great advice, honest opinions, and gotten excited w/ me over any accomplishments I've posted!
Also, my BM's (who won't even see this!) They are so awsome, supportive, and fun!
And, thanks to Ron for being a genius and creating LIW!

I would have to say I would thank all the LIW ladies...tons of great advice. But most definetly my cousin/MOH--she has been the best! She is finishing up law school and is so busy herself, yet she always willing to help, she looked all over for the BM dress and she even got my a irish wedding traditions book for my bday--shes the best!

I consider myelf to be extremely blessed by the old and new friends in my life, my family, my future family, and of course, FH (love ya Chach).

Conigs25 - my friend for life. literally. So happy to be sharing and planning this all w/ her. We grew up together, so it only makes sense that we get to do this too!!

KL805 - my cousin, who introduced me to LIW, and who is always super enthusiastic and interested in my wedding. And of course, for her time with printing eparty invites & STDs.

My MOHs - for also pretending to be interested , and just for being my gals.

Lauren09 - my work TB. For getting my butt in gear (officiants, I know!)

MOM- she is the best mother and friend a woman could ask for. My biggest cheerleader, ultimate support and of course, best shopping buddy a gal could ever want or need. I hope I am half the mother she is one day.

FH- my rock and support. His hugs and words are enough to cure the stress and anxiety any day of the week. Aagain, he is the best friend and parnter a girl could ever wish for...and he's mine.

My brother for standing in for my father as he walks me down the aisle.

My sisters for their organization and assistance putting this together while Mom is otherwise detained.

FH for his adorable smile that gets me through everything and for his kisses that make me tingle!

My best friend has really gone above and beyond for me. She was always there to calm me down and help put things in perspective. She worked really hard with my sister to plan my shower. She made my OOT cards and direction cards for my invites and also made my programs for me without hesitation. When my car had to be fixed 2 days before the wedding, she was my chauffeur. She was incredible!

My older sister and MOH, who was always there to support me and help me see that even though we can't pick our family, we should be happy for those we have. My sister really worked hard the day of the wedding to keep things as stress free as possible for me. I am truly grateful for that and hope I can do that for her as well as she did on her wedding day, July 3.

My LIW friends (and all of you) for listening to me and helping me with so many things. I am so fortunate to have met so many good friends on this site.

Most of all, my wonderful husband. He has been so patient and understanding throughout this whole process. He came to every appointment and really took an active role. Most of all, he loved me despite all of my faults/neurotic episodes. He is the most wonderful man and I am so lucky to be married to him!
