Holy Moly! We are now at less than 2 months until the big day.
Big things:
The Must Play List for the Reception...Hit me with your ideas guys. Matt and I's big problem is the music we listen to is NOT music you can get your dance party on with....3 hours of Mumford and Sons sounds great to me...but I realize they are pretty difficult to get down to.
The Must Shoot List for Photography...
Have you seen a photo that blew your mind? I want it.
Crafting is a part of my daily regimen at this point. Hot glue and I spend more time together than I do with Matt. The good news is I can see the light at the end of the craft tunnel, at least what I can finish up here. Once I get back to NC there will be a mad dash to the finish....
eeek
I need to burn off some stress....yoga? Bob? Both....all's I know is this FatBride is STRESSED I'm thinking it's a Bob-Rodney mashup kind of night....or maybe I'll Netflix a new workout video. Let's see. "Dance off the Inches: "Tummytone Party Zone"? "Crunch Bootcamp Workout" described as rigorous military style? Sounds painful...maybe Kickbox....
WAIT!!!!
"The Situation Workout" hosted by Jersey Shore's Mike "The Situation"Sorrentino!?!?!? I wonder how much fist pumping it takes to get "The Sitch's Ab Secret"??? How do you understand what he is saying between the accent and lack of vocabulary skills? How many times does he refer to himself as 'The Situation'???? SO many reasons to watch this!
I'm thinkin I will end up sitting and watching him be a douche rather than working out. Crunch Boot Camp it is...
or some underwear dancing....ok definitely some underwear dancing to shake and shimmy this stress out.
kinda like this: http://youtu.be/JfEpfqAR8sQ

Sorry about that
Folks. I am so SO SOOOOO sorry for being a deadbeat blogger and not being awesome lately, but wedding planning takes up ALOT of time....I have been so busy planning, crafting, making my own invites, calligraphy-ing those invites, licking the envelopes of those invites, double stamping those invites and finally GETTING THOSE INVITES OUT OF MY HOUSE!!!
They almost ruined my life, the invites. Matt was so angry at formatting and printing he would go on daily cussing rants to the device that was pissing him off. My hand was cramping from all the calligraphy. My back developed a hunch from leaning over the coffee table for hours and hours paper cutting, glueing and tying tiny raffeta bows. Finally, after 2 weeks, including 4 days of rather intensive Invitation Hell...WE MADE IT! And we STILL LOVE EACH OTHER!!! Matt did not throw the computer out the window, I did not loose a digit from the paper cutter, and we are able to talk about the printer now without inserting an explicative before it's name.
SUCCESS!
After THAT adventure, I went back to what I know...pinwheels! Which are now pretty close to being complete. I still have several projects to work on, bunting, chalkboards, and other DIY's but I feel like I am in pretty good shape going into the 3 busiest weeks of my professional life, pulling off two 4-day theater festivals back to back and opening a play in PVD the following week....all the month before the wedding....what an idiot I am.
The only positive, I will be so busy I won't be able to eat my feelings of stress. Which scares me a little because my wedding dress is perfect. PERFECT. I went to get the alterations, and I needed none. I have never felt as beautiful as I felt standing in the mirror room with two old ladies hovering around my butt for 45 minutes trying to figure out the best bustle option (a single point on both layers of the dress in case you were interested). As I was standing there, and they put the sash around my waist I had my moment of "OMIGOD I'm getting MARRIED!" Which I really did scream in the middle of the alterations department.
My "I'm Sorry Sucking at Blogging"? A new playlist: A tribute to a wonderful summer!
Enjoy and I will try and be a better brideblogger!
