With summer quickly approaching.. I'm being reminded a little more that the wedding is coming up quickly! I couldn't be more excited, but all the little details have got me a little down. I keep thinking of things like escort cards.. finding ties for the boys... bridesmaids, flower girl, and ring bearer gifts... program info... and a few little surpises I have up my sleeve that I just can't reveal on the blog in case fiance decides to read it!
Big details I'm great at.. the menu, reception location, dress, hair appts... all of those things were simple and took like 2 weeks to get in order. Its the little stuff! I'm worried that I'm going to forget some detail, then the day of ... have an "Oh Shit!" moment. Fiance says "Katie, its whatevs, you're missing the big picture - we are getting MARRIED!" Bless him.. he keeps me on track.
Now don't get it twisted and think I'm going to bridezilla this wedding! I just want to make sure it is memorable for both fiance and I. Plus, I wanna make sure all our friends and family have a BLAST at our wedding.. it is supposed to be the biggest party of our lives right? And besides, I made myself a little promise that I wouldn't stress out AT ALL about this wedding. In reality, its one day! :)
I think for now, the solution will be.. making lists! And accomplishing something little each week. Did any of you married peeps feel any of this? Any tips.. or any little details you wanna fill me in on!? I love hearing about other people's weddings, ya'll can be so much more creative than me!
For now I think I'll stick to the most pressing issues... like what to wear to this wedding shower! :) Hehe.. the fun stuff! I'm thinking this :
Flutter Sleeve Romper
or..
Strapless Romper (w/a cardigan!)
I dont know. A little different than my normal style... but super cute!
In other.. WAY more exciting news... my friend Toni flies into the Twin Cities this evening to spend the weekend! I am so excited! I've got lots planned... baseball, farmers market, pedicure.. and thats just a few of the things! It will be so nice to spend some quality time with her! I'll post pics and stories later!
Katie- I used a checklist on theknot.com, however, some of the things didn't apply to me or I had already gotten them done, so I switched to just writing lists. (and still kind of followed their checklist suggestions). I ordered the BM gifts about 2 weeks before and we totally spaced on the GM gifts until either the Tuesday or Wednesday before the wedding! Whoops. But the key is not to freak out. If you forget something, you forget it. No big deal.
ReplyDeleteAnd I vote for the stapless romper. He. Romper.
