huge fear... I am forgetting something!

I am getting down to the wire and with a week long business trip next week, I am beginning to panic. What is something that you forgot about until last minute if you are already married, and if not, what have you remembered lately. I have a huge fear I am going to get down to wedding week and realize I am out of luck on something big. I have the majors, programs, menu cards, timelines, all final vendor meetings set, just feels like I am missing something. HELP

    DH forgot to take my clothes to the hotel to wear home the next day.  I didn't even have a bra.  Wearing his boxers and polo wasn't fun. I forgot to bring a lot of things.  Thank goodness my aunt was still at our hotel.  She got management to let her into my moms room to get our boas, and called AAA to unlock my car for the pew bows.  Relax chica.  You have been covering all of your bases.  You've done a great job.

    I don't have anything but go over your knot check list I always thought that was helpful.

    We went to a wedding last weekend and I realized that I forgot to get my dress bustled! Also, we noticed several people had incidents where they needed safety pins and a sewing kit, so don't forget those.

    Hey Kel, One thing I remembered at the last minute was cash for the honeymoon. We needed singles for tips, etc.  Also, think about anything else you might need for the HM. It's hard to think past the wedding day, but you won't have much time after the wedding to pick up all those last minute things! Good Luck! Call me if there is anything you need!

    The day of the wedding, I forgot DH's wedding present at the place where we got ready. I had to ask a groomsman to go get the present and rush it to the groom about a minute before the ceremony started.

    The best thing you can do right now is develop a list of delegates - friends or family you trust enough to do stuff that you remember at the last minute, and make sure someone has a set of keys to your house or whereever you are storing all your wedding stuff. One big thing I don't want to forget is to have someone watch my house from wedding day through HM since newlyweds can be good targets for burglaries. Hang in there! FI and I are just trying to not sweat the small stuff - if you have the big picture taken care of, you can't let the little stuff ruin your special day!
