Wedding Diaries: Chapter 3

5 short months to go until the big day.  The wedding nightmares have commenced and panicking has begun.  The past few weeks I have been waking up in the middle of the night, thinking of all the things I have left on my plate.  For starters, we haven’t even bought our wedding bands yet…or gone to look for them for that matter.  (anxiety)

Tom has yet to look for tuxes. (panic)

We still haven’t completely finalized our guest list (…why?)

Again, the guest list is the worst thing in the world to do.  And, I’ll admit, the reason its not complete is because I am hesitating.  ARG!

Now, on a more positive note, we have scheduled the bachelorette party, along with a few showers.  My April/May will be crammed full of wedding showers, weddings (Tom’s cousin) and baby showers (sis-in-law).  So, can I really complain?  No way.  We will be getting a new addition to the family before the wedding, and that is reason enough to celebrate.  It’s no surprise that I love having babies around.  Plus, the excitement I felt when Megs told us she was preggers was some of the most joy I’ve ever felt.  So, let’s just say I’m one lucky girl to have such amazing things happening all around me.

Ok, two more things to add and then I am done with this post.  First one – Having gifted friends makes the wedding process so much more unique.  So far I have friends designing my invitations AND my jewelry. Its nice to know that what you’re spending money on is hand-made by people you trust.  Also, its very helpful to have one  VERY organized maid of honor throughout the process.

Two – Just got my garter in the mail.  Yes, its a Mizzou garter.  Deal with it.  I’m rather excited that it looks as good as I’d hoped.

Well, that’s enough for today.  More news to come as it happens.
