Is everyone else as bad as I am?

But in a good way?  I have saved a little bit of everything that is going into this wedding that I can put in a scrap book.  I have bridal shower invite, wedding invite, thank you tags I've used, and even saved a napkin among other things.  If it fits in a scrap book, it's going in there.  I'm a sentimental pack rat and save things that I think are important to me.  I have kept every meaningful card/lettert  that I have ever gotten (except from exes I got rid of that stuff). 
After the wedding I am even having my flowers turned into beads for keepsakes.
My hope is that one day I will have a daughter or even son to share these things with.  My mom only has a few things from her wedding day that she has kept and I wish she had more for me to see and even pass down to me.  So I have decided to keep a little of everything.  I know there will be photos but I want the actual thing as well.

So anyone else as sentimental as I am?

    I had hoped to be!
    Back when FH and I first got engaged (December 2010) I bought a scrapbook that I had intended to fill throughout our engagement... not just with wedding things, but with mementos of all that happened throughout the next 15 months... trips, moves, birthdays, etc... to date, I have done none of that!  I've kept things from those events and have tons of pics, so maybe after the wedding when all the crazy is done with I'll put it all together.

    That's how I've been too.  I haven't put anything together yet, but I've kept everything so when everything settles down and I have no wedding to plan anymore, I can work on the scrap book.

    I've been doing this too! I don't have a scrap book yet but I've been saving everything in a box for now and will work on it after the wedding and after I'm done getting our house together. It will give me something to do since I'll probably feel a little lost not having a wedding to plan anymore lol.

    That's actually a really good idea! I haven't set anything aside yet, but I'm going to when I get home tonight!!

    I know we'll have the wedding album, but I would like to remember all the little details that went into the planning so that I can hopefully share them with our kids someday.

    I haven't done any of that at all. Then again I am not crafty and don't scrapbook. My SIL does and she is great at it, so I am going to see if she will make me one if I buy her everything she needs. I am sure we can get our hands on the extra invites if need be. If not that will be ok I am sure she will have other ideas. I wish I was crafty enough to do these kinds of things.

    Oh, I've kept pieces of EVERYTHING. My plan is to do scrapbook everything over the summer when I have time off. :) It's also the purpose of our well wish cards. We opted out of the traditional guestbook and are doing the well wish cards instead. We also have a photobooth that takes double pictures of everything. So, I plan to take the well wish cards and photos and put them into another scrapbook.
