countdown

I am totally in countdown mode. I wish that I didn’t have any work to actually do and I could just think about wedding stuff.

I am now checking the 10 day forecast on weather.com about four times/day to see what the weather will be like.

My rain plan is the K of C, and that is fine, except that I can’t imagine the wedding pictures against the carpet covered walls. Ugh. Pray for sunshine (the forecast today is better! Keep on coming sunshine!

oh. cost cutters

Not only am I getting my wedding hair done at cost cutters, but I just called to make a prep appt for Friday and move the appt back to 10am for Sunday. And the girl on the phone is going to be the one doing my hair, so right at the end of the conversation she says: “Now, you don’t want cornrows do you? because I don’t know how to do cornrows.”

 

What kind of a place am I getting married where this is a legitimate question?

call for song requests

I need to submit to the DJ the songs I want played. I already have the big ones, but I am also providing a list of songs that we love that we would just like played somewhere in the rotation.

If you have a song that is very special to you I would be happy to add it in.

 

Sarah… it can be Lil’ Kim if that is special to you. J

Dress

As you probably heard, to get the dress I was in love with I had to order two sizes smaller than I really should have. That was April.
Except for taking the month of June off for my sabbatical, I have been working really hard to lose weight. I have lost over 35 lbs.
Yesterday was the moment of truth, would it fit?

Great news, it did fit! Whew. The backup plan was not pretty - picking a dress off a rack at David's Bridal and abandoning my beautiful expensive one.

So, David's Bridal isn't necessary, but I am still a little chunky for the dress - another 10 lbs and it will look a lot better. So, the super intense diet and excercise routine continues...

program - nearly done!

this weekend I worked on the program for the ceremony - all I need is Rick's reading choice and it is done!
