5 more days!!! Who else is getting married this weekend?

I'm calm, but excited. Weather is looking questionable, but that's out of my hands.

So ready to get this show on the road!!

    Congrats!! My best friend is getting married this Saturday also, great date! :O)

    What, if any, last minute things are you working on?

    Are you taking a HM right away?

    Well, all vendors are paid for except the limo bus who I'll pay day of.

    - Need to wrap bridal party gifts
    - Pick up a last minute gift for our 2 year old ring bearer (and I'm stumped on what)
    - Ordered a seating chart from an Etsy seller so I need to make contact with her for an ETA
    - Waiting on a friend to finish printing programs for me.
    - Getting roots touched up Wednesday
    - Nails on Friday

    HM is going to wait til end of  October. We had a smaller wedding budget so since we're done paying for that now, we can focus on budgeting for the HM. Can't wait!

    I am! I really can't believe that the wedding is almost here (having been engaged for 20 months). I wouldn't worry about the weather at this point- I have spent enough time worrying about weather for tennis matches to know that the weather man is only making educated guesses.

    I agree. Plus it's Chicago, chances are it'll change throughout the day, too. Damn Mother Nature! <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-wink.gif" border="0" alt="Wink" title="Wink" />

    aww thanks :) oh my one most important piece of advice if it DOES rain...bring an old towel/sheet with you to spread on the ground when getting in and out of your limo/bus or whatever. Maybe I'm OCD, but it was nice not having to worry my dress was all muddy in pictures.

    I'm getting married on Saturday too!  Today is my last day of work (thank God!).  I really have everything done for the most part.  I am kind of nervous about the weather, but I think they are saying that because the weather is going to change a lot this weekend, and change can, not always though, bring storms.  Fingers crossed!

    I think I'm most scared of my hair freaking out and pulling a Chaka Khan as it tends to do in heat & humidity. LOL!!

    Cross all crossables!
