Less Than Two Weeks

edited November 2014 in Chit Chat
AHHHHHH!!! I just need to get my list off of my chest so that I can calm down today. I have nothing to do at work so I am really wanting to leave, go home, and do all of these things! But, I need to chillax because this list really isn't that daunting at all considering I have over a week. 

Things I need to do:

  • Pay all the people! caterer, dj, photographer! Remember to set aside cash for church DOC, cantor, organist
  • Decide if we are doing videography or not. Either doing $300 for the ceremony via the church or doing $600 via the photographer all day. can't decide. Church has rules about how far up the videographer can go during the ceremony so if we don't use the church that part won't be very good. decisions decisions. 
  • Buy two more decorations. Buy champagne glasses for our toasts. Buy four easels for two engagement pictures and two decorations. 
  • Order my two tiered bundt cake- they said to do this a couple of days ahead of time.
  • Get gift bags for bridal party gifts and write their personal thank yous. 
  • FREAKING FINISH AND ORDER THE PROGRAMS. mostly done, but need to update readers and add readings. Need to get done because I don't want to pay $30 for shipping. 
  • Get snacks for bridal party (cheeses, almonds, protein bars, water, red bulls, bananas, maybe muffins or something, baby carrots, veggie tray?)
  • Get my mom some mascara and powder and blush (she doesn't usually wear makeup, but seemed interested for the day of)
  • Go pick up my engagement ring from being re-dipped
  • Get Christopher Elbow chocolates for readers
It is all coming together and is happening so soon!!! GAHHHHHHHH I need to focus on other things in life!!

  • Ahhhh you're so close! You can definitely get your list complete and before you know it, your day will be here!

    that's what I keep telling FI about my FMIL. She is cray and thinks she is helping by asking me 10000 questions, which instead makes me anxious. I keep trying to explain that I'll get done what is needed and if they day of/the day before she still has questions the answer is either it was already done or it doesn't matter anymore! :)

    Oh I hear you on this! I had people (BM, FMIL, randos on the street) ask tons of questions about what I had and had not completed. At some point I just told myself they were just excited for me and stopped really listening. As bad as that sounds!

  • It's okay so far! Final payments, meeting with the DJ tonight, printing programs this week or early next week. One more dance lesson, 5-6 little gifts to buy for wedding party people, finish making the flowers.

    The biggest thing left is that we have to make our wedding favors. We're going to churn out a TON of hard candy this weekend for that.
