Not so calm anymore :)

I have been stressed this weekend with the last minute wedding details, moving into our apartment, and getting everything settled at work this last week. I am not longer freakishly calm and I have to admit I had a major stress breakdown earlier today! I'm hoping thats the first and last breakdown before the wedding. Ugh. I feel much better now though and am ready for bed! Just thought I would share that I FINALLY printed our programs! It took about 3 hours but they look great. All I have to do now is assemble them! Some big things left to do sometime this week: - Pay balance to almost all vendors! - Print table numbers and escort cards - Send Kenny Mondo final song selections - Final meeting with priest - Buy FI's wedding band - Wrap bridal party gifts - Stuff and prepare favor boxes - Buy honeymoon clothing I feel like that list is way too long for my liking, but what can ya do!

    Easy for me to say, but try not to stress too much. You have been meticulously planning for so long that I'm sure everything will be beautiful!

    Oh my gosh, this is so exciting! It's perfectly normal to feel this way, I'm sure! Just give yourself achievable daily goals, such as: Today I will print out table numbers; tomorrow the girls will come over and we will assemble the programs, etc..... Congrats girl!

    I am sure everything will get done on time. Just try to enjoy these days leading up to the Wedding. Trust me, it all goes by pretty fast.

    Make a reasonable schedule for things to get done and delegate what you can (maybe wrapping of gifts, preparing favor boxes,etc.) Relax, girl. Do not wear yourself out before the big day. As I have said before, you seem super organized. I know everything will turn out beautifully =)

    12 day is plenty of time!! You'll be fine. I am a HUGE online shopper, I would order a bunch of clothes online and just return what you dont like - its a big time saver. and now you lve so close to the Aventura mall it is even easier. Nordstroms is the easiest place to return internet purchases to. Very customer service oriented over there. I wish I was home to help you!

    I am having mini freakouts and I still have alot on my list to do. At least you're down to the minor stuff (which you'll get done).

    This happened to me last week. I think this time is the most stressful because you know all that needs to get done but it simply isn't done yet and that fact in itself is stressful. You'll get most done this week, then next week is smooth sailing! One thing you can make easier is honeymoon shopping - do it online! Victoria's secret is having an awesome sale right now on summer clothes from bathing suits to linen pants. Delegate program assembly and favor box stuffing to bridesmaids and moms! That's what they're there for :) GL!!

    Wow you're so close! It looks like a lot in list form but you'll definitely get it all done! How exciting!!!

    Thanks girls!  I have recruited my mom and two BMs to help with the programs and favor boxes, so that will get done in one night. I just have to get some of the other stuff this week in the midst of working.  I am taking three weeks off and I have so much to do before I leave.  This is the most stressful thing for me.  I want to be married already! Oh and I was going to do online shopping at VS but VS doesn't let you return to the store and they make you pay to return, so I am just going to try to hit up the mall one day.  Hopefully!
