My Last Post...

This is beyond surreal.  Without the DW knotties, my wedding would be NOTHING like I hope it will be.  I would have no veil, no menus, no table cards, place cards, welcome letters, oot bags, photo share cards, stds, invites etc...

I can't even begin to say how much I am looking forward to this, how much our friends and family are looking forward to this.  It is a much need vacation for FI and I, for the dogs and of course it will be our wedding, a day to remember, cherish and celebrate.

Advice... do what YOU want, not what others want and don't be afraid to try things.  Really celebrate the process and enjoy it.  Also, I know a lot of people say don't do too much early on, but I am soooo glad I did.  It saved me when I procrastinated and spent months doing NOTHING.

To all the ladies before me... There are way to many to name, but you guys are the absolute best and i mean BEST.  You've supported, listening, give advice, ideas, shared with me, made me laugh and I really truly wish ya'll could make it to our wedding.

To my fellow May brides... um, where did the freakin time go?  I swear I lost a year.  Girls, we are here... live it UP!!!

To those after me... best wishes, lots of luck and I hope you guys learn and are able to walk away with as much as I have because of the DW knotties/nesties.

Without Lisa I would have horrible invites, without Fanny..i'd be without a veil... without Tracy, I wouldn't have a fabulous TTD, Shelli, Mary, Cristina, Rose, Samanatha, Tammy, Izzy, Meghann (all like 100 of your), Sarah, Krissie, Lisa(s), Katie, Tracy, Natalie(s), Jenny, Marelina, and everyone I've fogotten... THANK YOU.  I owe you guys so much, and I can't wait to share pictures and tell ya'll about it.

Although FI and I might kill each other trying to get the car packed tonight, I am so lucky to have found such a great guy.  He is good to me, my family, my friends... to our dogs and one day will hopefully be the father of my children.  It is going to be a long, crazy life, but I'm ready for the ride...as long as he lets me drive...hahaha

Love you ladies lots, i'll be sneaking in i'm sure, but otherwise I'll be back and I'll be married :).

    I wish you all the best on your wedding day, I know it will be everything you dreamed of.  Have a safe trip and I will look forward to hearing all about it when you get back as a MRS.!!
  • CONGRATS! I am so happy for you. And what a relief to get the closing done before your wedding. Now, you can just relax and have a great time. Don't sweat the small stuff, and just take time to really take everything in. I'll see you on the flip side!

  • GREAT LP Cristina!!  I can't believe it's finally your time!  You have been such an active knottie and nestie that it's awesome that you will finally be "official" on the other side!  :)  Before coming to the DW board I had never even heard of OBX, now I know that it is one beautiful place, soon to be home of one of the best weddings!  I hope the weather is gorgeous and that you have a wonderful time.   Congratulations, enjoy every last second, and I can't wait to see you back as a MRS!

  • I'm late, but Congrats! I'm so excited for you Cristina!
  • Cristina, I can't believe your time is already here.  I've been following your travels on FB and I'm so glad you guys arrived in NC safe (and sane).  It won't do either of you any good to kill DFI before the big day.  Smile  I hope you have a fabulous time in the OBX.  I know your wedding day will turn out spectacular and I can't wait to hear all about it.  Have fun and we'll see you on the flip.
