So, I have a little bit of wedding stress! Nothing too crazy mind you...but there are a few things that I feel like I just need to get taken care of!
1. My Invitations- I'm not really stressed about them since I am now done with them. I just need to get a good coupon and I will order them! So- no stress, it's just always there!
2. Getting the Save the Dates out- after school I'm going to get stamps. All of my people have address', but Curt's people do not. So, that is a little nerve wracking, but it's not a huge source of stress for me.
Okay, so before you get bored with the post and me writing- it's not too big a stress...I will just jump to the part that is causing me to stress!
1. The bouquets- I'm nervous that they aren't going to be as easy as I think they will be. I need to do some major prep work for this and I have not done so! I need to figure out what flowers we will be using. How many of them we will be using. And what we need for each flower. With 7 bridesmaids, 1 tossing bouquet, and my bouquet...it's just a lot! Do flower girls get a bouquet? I feel like my niece Abby would want one, because that is just how amazing she is! I will have to wait and see on that!
2. The centerpieces. I really want to have the final product done and ready to go! But I can't make a decision on them! I mean, what is in the bottom of the vase? Christmas bulbs? Flowers? twinkle lights? I dont' know! So, here is what I'm doing with that. Over the holiday's I will try to finalize what each centerpiece looks like.
I guess my real issue is this "Not Knowing"! I mean, I can say here is what I want! And trying to figure that out does not stress me out. However, but not knowing what I want or what I'm trying to figure out is very stressful for me!
I have 3 weeks where I have nothing to do! One week, where I'm being grounded to not do anything. So, this week, I can think! I need to bring a needle to school to work on flowers. I feel like if we go with the bigger ones, we will need fewer of them! So that is a plus! I just need to know which ones I want to do. Which ones will be easy to do. You know...blah blah blah!
Then maybe over Thanksgiving, I can mess around with the centerpieces. Maybe my folks can help me take a look at them and see what they think! Then we can get that settled and I will feel much more relaxed going into month 4! Yikes! December will mark the 4 month point! That is nuts!
I have a show starting in December and then one in January. So, I would like to feel nice and calm and prepared about all of this stuff before my busy season hits again!
So, let's go over what we are doing.
