AW: Dress Ordered and Other Updates

I just called Pearl's Place and placed my dress order!  She said it should arrive in 3 months, but I'm guessing that's a worst-case-scenario estimate.  FYI - the dress in the Alfred Angelo store was $1400 and I'm getting the same dress from Pearl's Place for $800! 

In case you need a reminder:



I am starting to feel a bit overwhelmed looking at my ticker (less than 5 months to go??  REALLY??). 

I need to lock down a caterer ASAP.  I got an amazing quote from a local restaurant and hope to schedule a meeting with them at our venue this week.

Also, I have a 4th (yes, you read that right - FOURTH) job interview with the same company tomorrow and am really hoping this is the last one and that they make me an offer. 

Vibes for the correct dress showing up at my doorstep in 3 months or less, finding an awesome caterer, and landing this job would be greatly appreciated!  Laughing

  • Great score on the dress!  Its getting to be crunch time, you can do it and good luck on your interview.  I am sure the right dress will show up on your doorstep!
  • That's a great deal for that dress, and of course it will show up to your door on time. As for the interview, um wow, four?!?! I hope this is the last one as that would drive me crazy.
