Well, I cannot believe my time is here to write "my post". Our year engagement just flew by!
As most of you know, I'm from SI not NJ but have a bunch of vendors in NJ (most importantly, the reception). I lurked both boards months before I was engaged. I was being supersticious and wanted to wait to sign up until after I was engaged. The NYC board was pretty slow and I started to check out this board frequently. Once I joined, I felt I was openly welcomed and it was very easy to fit in. I never in a million years would have guessed that I would make such close friends in real life off of here. To be able to meet some knotties for lunch, dinner, GTGs, & chat often is a great thing.
I have received so much helpful and thoughtful advice from all of you throughout this process. I am very appreciative and hope I can help others along the way. I would like to profusely thank my BB girls - there are too many to name but you will be in my thoughts on Friday. I am so lucky to call you all friends.
I adore my fiance but these last few days, there's a part of me that wants to strangle him. I've heard that's normal butting heads with stress towards the end. We have lived with each other over a year and it's so surreal that we will finally be husband and wife. So what I have to tell you is that - regardless of how hard it gets wedding planning, the stress, sleepless nights, you name it, don't forget about the true meaning of celebrating your union and the sacrament of marriage.
I have my wax appointment very soon and RD tonight so I will try to pop on sometime this afternoon before the rehearsal.
Thank you all xo
