Somebody Calm My Nerves

Why is this day so slow on the boards? You people are supposed to be helping me keep sane this final week! LOLOL

Anyone have any last minute advice? Things not to leave Boston without? Advice for transporting the darn dress?

    I've seen you post but never noticed, for some reason, you're in Boston. I lived there (& south in Quincy, then north in Cambridge) for 10+ years & miss it!

    The last week I was the calmest, I think...I DID fear forgetting things & I am NOT a naturally organized person- lol- so I made extra effort to make a list, get my things grouped together as early as possible, etc.

    At the hotel getting ready I coudn't find my JEWELRY & thought, "I am going to have to wear NOTHING...or the costume/non-wedding stuff I wore with my tee shirt yesterday?!"  Momentarliy panicked.

    I think in case of something random happening like an earring post or a bracelet clasp breaking, grab something you woulnd't be DEVASTATED having to substitute in a wort case scenario (if you care enough; I cared! lol).

    Little emergency kit like safety pins, crazy glue, bobby pins?...

    Perfume was important to me, too. lol. Again, if you care, pack your perfume away now! :)

    When I am planning for anything like a trip or even the wedding, I think of what I might need, I try to visualize myself getting ready.  I literally walk through every step in my head and think of the items I am using or might needs just in case.  Take some time, just think about it and i'm sure it will come to you. 

    P.S. Don't forget the rings :)

    Haha.  I actually live about 1 mile from Fenway - but am a HUGE Yankees fan. Identity crisis on my end :( Haha.  
    I began packing yesterday  - and definitely having a lot of the "What am I forgetting?!?" Moments

    Try to lay your dress as flat as possible and leave it unzipped a little just to keep it fresh, I am told that if it is completely closed for long periods of time that it can get a smell to it.  

    You are going to be just fine, plus I'm not far from you and I don't leave until Friday so if you need anything last minute just email me.  I am happy to help!
