XP: ONE MORE MONTH..........

......our wedding is a month from today! OMG, I've been on the Knot since Nov 2009, and now 21 months later the day is only a month away!

I've really become fairly calm, because everything left to do is last minute stuff. I gave everyone until August 6th for the RSVP returns, and I know I will be sending some emails or making calls to gather together several answers. So far out of 93 invited, there's 36 at the wedding, including the bridal party! But  I do know some are coming, just waiting to find out if their invited teens will be working, etc. So, seating cards, programs, affixing labels to water bottles, and the centerpieces with the flowers I'm ordering from Costco are what's left. That last one will be the final 2 days before the wedding.

I have a "walk through" at my venue on August 10th to determine floor plan and make final payments. The caterer and my DOC will be there too so everyone is on the same page.

Hard to believe it's come along so far in what feels like a nano-second, LOL.

I've made the hotel reservations along the coast of California for our delayed 14 day honeymoon drive (in a Mustang convertible) from San Fran to San Diego area in September. Still have to do some research on what we'll be seeing in each area, but I don't care, the drive alone will be worth the trip.

Come on guests, send me your RSVP's !!!!!

    I live in Southern California! I think your honeymoon driving the coast will be wonderful! If you want any idea of where to stop, let me know. I work in a hospital overlooking Newport Beach Harbor. There are some really beautiful places along the coast here! Congratulations!!

    Oh boy, I am SO happy for you!!  It's wild that the big day is almost here.  Yay!  You will have a wonderful time, I just know it.  Congratulations!

    I know you will enjoy your honeymoon road trip.  I did the same trip, except San Diego to San Fran (by myself!) a few months after college graduation and had a blast.  My only mistake is that my rental was neither (1) powerful enough, nor (2) a convertible.  You have that taken care of.  Enjoy!!

    WOW Sue, your journey was as long as mine. Enjoy this last month, I know you are a great planner and you probably won't have much pre wedding stress as everything will be done. I got on the phone and e mail and started early with people to get the RSVP's. By the RSVP date I had everyone's reply, and you can too!!!   The last minute stuff of seating charts and escort cards drove me crazy. My husband had amazing 6th sense when it came to my stress and he jumped in and made the programs at the 11th hour, designed, printed, folded, punched and tied ribbons.
    I'm excited for you! I can't wait to hear about the HM. My hubby and I want to do that trip but with one kid going to college this fall, it won't be this year, but I would LOVE to start planning it for next year.
    ENJOY!
