My 'to-do' list for wedding stuff seemed simple enough. I mean, how much more can there be in these last four months - we've done the big stuff: booked the venue, band, photographer, got my dress, etc. We're almost done, right? Wrong. There are a ton of loose ends to tie up: wedding and reception music, hotel gift bags, rehearsal invites, getting my dress altered, finding shoes. These are my dream shoes...probably not going to happen!
Other fun things we've done : updated registry, I had my first shower (girls luncheon at Aixois) and we picked out wedding rings.
Last weekend was very interesting - we had our day-long, required "marriage preparation" class at St. Andrews. We really lucked out and only had it with one other couple and it lasted from 9 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. - totally bearable. It was more of a therapy session than anything - the other couple has some major family baggage or the bride at least made it seem that way. I would say we have a few family issues, but ours were pretty minor, compared to theirs!
We also met with the wedding coordinator a few weeks ago to map out everything down to the details - where do we want the cake, will the guys be dressed when they arrive at the club, who will sit in which pew - things like that. This wedding is starting to feel real!!
We have a few showers lined up and those will be fun to celebrate! Next up, the bachelorette party in Austin with the girls in my wedding party!
