Got to Share!!

I just got the pictures of my tins for my bridesmaids and our favor bags. The bags will be filled with halloween candy since its near halloween. The bridesmaids tins are filled with fun girly stuff! (sorry cant tell you exactly since they may be reading!)

I also got my wooden roses in the mail today and cant wait to start in on those!

23 Days to Go!! WOW

So with 23 days to go we are totally getting down to what we need to do!! Whoohoo, I am almost done with my to do list. Got the music all picked out and working on my timeline with the wedding planner. We only had one little bump in the road, I got a wonderful decal off etsy for the Aisle runner. Well after 4 hours of attaching it to the runner I noticed my name is spelled wrong! UGH!! So I contacted the seller and hopes she will send a new one, I was smart and added it near the top of the runner so I can easily cut it off since I have a 100ft runner. Now I am on the hunt for tape that will hold the runner down on the carpet.

25 Days and Couting Down!

Whew with 25 days to go I have so much to still do and buy! We are still in the process of paying off the venue and food. With my mothers help since we just cant afford it and was so close to calling off the wedding.

I am finally at the point to give up and stop trying to find a freakin aisle runner and use the one I bought awhile ago. Even with it not being what I thought it was, so this afternoon I am going to spend time on the aisle runner and get our monogram on it.

I only have a few things left to pay for this week, those being the personal bridesmaids tins stuffed with fun stuff from avon. The favor bags which are personalized, and my flower girls cone shaped flower baskets also personalized. Waiting for the wooden roses to come in the mail and then will work on those.

Then we got a week where nothing is being bought and we then have to purchase our flowers from Costco! Wow now that will be the big thing and we will be 2 weeks away from the wedding at that time. I can hardly wait!

We had the dress fitting, and got a few pictures. This was the first time my mom saw my dress! I was blown away at how well it actually fit and looked after it was altered. So these are pictures of the dress, train and close up of the corset.

Shopping Today

Well we went today and got a few more items for the wedding. With 29 days to go its coming up fast and I am finally happy to say my To Do list is getting smaller and smaller!! Haha we still have some more to get tomorrow when we are out and about. I got a great DIY program stuff that I will have to work on in the next few weeks also.

I picked up my dress yesterday and its fits! haha I may have to add a few pounds to make sure I can actually fit in the top. Otherwise I have to wear the fake boobies! We also picked up my other bridesmaids dress. Very cute and the right shade of red.

I will post pictures of the dress after I get them from my mom, she came with me and almost cried!! ahhh!!

Wedding Day Hair

So yesterday since I had nothing to do. I decided to play around with my hair and figure out the perfect wedding do! I found one that I really like and goes perfectly with my flower.

Its a side bun low on the neckline, with a white flower pinned off to the side. I was going to let my hair down but I am not a big fan so I am going with what I like. The bottom picture shows me in the earrings and veil.

4 Weeks 1 Day Till The BIG Day!

Here I sit with 31 days till my wedding, the list keeps getting longer and longer. I feel like there is no way around it! haha!! I have tried everything in my power to keep this short and sweet yet it just doesn't. All these great idea's pop into my head and I end up changing things or even adding things. Yet the list is actually small not really that long! All the big stuff is done, now we are on to smaller things like favors, suits, socks ect. You know all the small things you forget about till the last minute!

At least we are that far ahead, I have been in wedding planning mode for 3 months. Got stuck once all the invites were out and couldn't figure out what we were going to need. Now that we are in the 4 week mode its getting exciting.

Check out my next blog for what I got to still do! As in buying! Below is what I have to make.
