Oh Wedding Planner, where art thou?

I signed onto our wedding website this afternoon, and the first thing I see is 19 Days Until the Big Day.  Holy smokes!  It really is approaching fast!!  I can hardly believe it!  In addition to cleaning and working, I spent part of the afternoon getting wedding "things" in order.  The last time I spent a Sunday working on this activity, I realized that I hadn't booked an officiant for the wedding.  LOL (but I wasn't laughing at the time!)  That was in July, and we've taken care of it since.  Now today, we figured out that we never sent in the contract for the acoustic guitarist!  Seriously?!?!?!  We can laugh at this, hopefully, because I did send in the deposit in April, AND we are listed on his "Calendar of Events" on the website.  

All I can say is "I SHOULD HAVE HIRED WEDDING PLANNER!!!!!"  Why was I so cheap???? I thought since the wedding small, that I could get by without one...and I am.  But I should have realized that no matter how big or small a wedding is, it still has the same main components...and they're all in Florida.  All in all, though, we've been doing pretty good.  Thank goodness that Chad is a groom who likes to be involved!  We've split the vendors and each dealt with half.  It's worked well so far though.  I just hope that I'm not forgetting something!

So these days we're just tying up all of the wedding "loose ends"...jewelry, menus, place cards, welcome cards/itineraries, etc.  These are the things that I could have use a professionals help with.  We've found some great vendors on-line though.  It's been like Christmas around here with all the shipments we've been getting each day!  Fun!!!  This week we received jewelry, menus, placecards...and several shipments of clothes that, of course, I NEED for the wedding or honeymoon.  ;)

I also received my wedding dress back from the alteration lady...and it fits PERFECT.  She did such a great job!  I must thank my hair stylist, Sarah, for sending me to her!!!  It's difficult to find someone that you trust, especially in a new area, with a job that important.

Phew!  I need a beer after all of this!  Happy Sunday!  Cheers!!
