Signing off!

Hey guys!! Well...I am signing off now for the last time as a Miss!! Next time I write to you I'll be a married woman. The past week has been a whirlwind....there is always something to be done, and never enough hours in the day. I still have a few things to take care of this morning before our bridal party and my parents gets into town, but as far as I'm concerned at 3:00 today....when I go to my mani/pedi appointment...it is officially wedding weekend. That is the point in which I will sit back and whatever happens...well happens.

I really hope I can get a picture up on Sunday before I leave for ITALY! However, I have prepared posts for the next two weeks outlining some of the details that went into planning the wedding. They were done pretty quickly and are not the greatest, but will give you a general idea of some of the elements involved in my day that I couldn't share with you beforehand!

Tonight we have the rehearsal followed by the rehearsal dinner. Then tomorrow...hair and makeup begins at 9am!! Phew! Then 3:00 ceremony, 6:00 cocktail hour and 7:30 reception!!

My "day of" basket is all ready to go: This includes flip flops, my "very sexy bride" hoodie, my emergency kit, my underlings and garter(s), my new lipstick, all my jewlery and my perfume!


I will be back to recap sometime the week of June 7th, to all of you that have weddings between now and then...good luck! I can't wait to catch up on everything once I return!

BYE!

Yey you're a married woman now!!! :)

Aw sorry I missed this! I'm jealous you were so organized and had all of these posts ready while you were on your honeymoon! Something I definitely did not think to do! I was so stressed :) I'm so happy for you though. I am trying to get all caught up on your blog now.

Hope you're enjoying your honeymoon and that your wedding was everything you dreamed it could be! I bet you're anxious to receive your pictures! I still haven't received mine and it's been a little over a month.. talk about anxious! :) Hope all is well and I'm going to get caught up now...

p.s. super cute idea to have everything in a basket! I just threw everything inside of a bag. It worked :)
