It's been a stressful couple of days to say the least. I'd like to also apologize for being a terrible blogland participant this week. I've had a couple of minutes here and there to check email and scan through my reader, but I don't foresee having a lot of opportunity to spend a lot of time reading or commenting. I promise that as soon as all of this madness is over I will be back to my regularly scheduled blog stalking.
Anyway, there have been a long chain of wedding related events that have gone wrong, and things are now back on the upswing, but last night it felt like the end of the world. Of course, in the midst of my inaugural wedding meltdown I completely realized that it was totally ridiculous to be so upset about the fact that Office Depot completely screwed up the printing and cutting of our programs, and even though I did indeed forget my birth certificate at home, it is being overnight and should be here by tomorrow afternoon. So everything should work out, but it's been a long road to get here.
Today we made multiple trips to Office Depot to fix and then re-fix the programs, went for my final dress fitting (it's gorgeous, oh my God, I forgot how much I love it!!), and made a couple of shopping trips to get some bridal party gifts and buy supplies for my emergency wedding kit. Tonight I just have to cut the martini menu, the scavenger hunt cards for the table cameras, and the cards that guests will sign instead of a guest book. After that I'll organize the bridal party gifts and then it will at long last be bedtime.
I've been waiting for bedtime since I dragged my weary body out of bed this morning. It's been such a very, very long time coming...
My goodness, girlie! Get some sleep, you deserve it!

Of course I know next to nothing about this, but I would think any issue with the wedding dress would have been the biggest problem, so I'm glad that part is all good! As for the other stuff, it's gotta be majorly stressful, but I know you'll be totally capable of fixing and handling any problems that may arise! Hang in there!

Hang in there - you seem so much more organized than I'll ever dream of being, and I'm sure everything will work out wonderfully. I'm so excited for you!

Awww, aren't you precious, worrying about being a good blogger. You've got bigger fish to fry, girl! Whenever you get stressed, just think about how beautiful your dress looks and how much you love it.
Oh, and I guess how much you love that guy you're marrying, too. ;-)

How you even have time to get online and blog when you have all that going on, is beyond me! But I wanted to wish you the best and I hope yours and Colby's day is truly special. The title of your blog will not be accurate on the 23rd!

Holy crap. Thank you, again, for reminding me that I don't miss all that planning as much as I thought I would.
It'll all be worth it, I promise. The day will be spectacular, martini menus or no. Just don't forget to suck it all in, it goes SO FAST.

You are amazing! Although, I hope this whole "hair on fire" thing doesn't mess up your 'do on the Big Day! ;-)
I'm so happy and excited for you!
big hugs!!!
