39 days to go!!!! EEEK!

Ok, so the stress has been on! Getting close to the 30-day mark and it's time to pick up the pace! I am LATE on invitations! They would've been out last week, but we ran into a problem. I bought the invites on sale at Hobby Lobby over a month ago and the plan was to print and send. Too bad it's not that easy! The invites would NOT go through the printer! The ones that did sprayed ink everywhere because they are not flat paper. Soooo..after my mom stepping up and taking over, she got them switched out and printed up! This week the goal is to have them out by friday. I am finalizing the guest list as we speak, (you know, using all the proper wording and such!).

A few weeks ago my dress came in and Britt, my mom and I all went over for the first fitting. I tried it on with my handmade bouquet and it looked (and fit) great! Yesterday I went back to get the alterations and bustle ready. My sister and I ran around all day yesterday! After the fitting we were at TJ Maxx to finally end my long look for shower dresses! I have been looking for weeks both in stores and online and have had no look. I wanted dresses under 20, but that just wasn't happening. Finally I found some 30 and below, so I took them! Now all I need (regular clothing-wise) is a nice pair of heels for my showers (and life), a bachelorette dress (white and hot!), and white heels to double as shower shoes and wedding shoes (and of course life shoes!)

Tomorrow I am going with Jamie and Addison to find a flower girl dress for little Addi. Hopefully it won't be too hard!

Friday is cake finalizing day and thank God that I have everything ready for that! Last weekend Britt, my mom, Emily and I all went shopping in Murfreesboro (and me and britt shopped online) for all kinds of wedding stuff! I have almost all of my flowers and decor. Just missing a few things here and there.

What's next? Slideshow and music! ooooo and can't forget the flowers!

This weekend me, Britt, Annie, Christina and Emily are getting away for a Florida relaxation girl's trip! Butttt..I'm going to have to bring wedding stuff because there is still so much to do! Pray for sun because this is my last chance at a tan before the big day! :-)

Rehearsal Dinner..check

So today I met with Brian's mom at the Puffy Muffin in Brentwood and we met with the rehearsal dinner coordinator and the day of wedding coordinator. Both ladies were sweet! I found out that the rehearsal dinner is actually going to take place at my most favorite winery in the world!!! It's located about 10 minutes from where the wedding will actually be, and I don't think Susan knew that it was my favorite, so it was exciting for all of us! WOO!

I've got some new ideas to add to my collection and decor ideas, so that is exciting too.

What's more exciting? I finished a bouquet last night! YAY! I think my whole fam was surprised to actually say they liked it. Everyone had their doubts and thought I was crazy (and I was starting to head that way too), but after seeing it all come together, I know it was the right decision all along! It cost me less than $8 to make a bouquet..and real/fake would be WAY more than that..I also noticed that handmade bouquets similar to this sell for hundreds! May have to try that out after the wedding with my left over fabric!

Well..that's all for now! Until then, we are making flowers and cleaning wine bottles! Keep collecting!
