75 DAYS TO GO!!! CALLING 10/7 BRIDES

So, I think I am kind of at a pausing point. Most of what is left are paying final payments. I had my hair trial last Thursday and it went really well. It took I think about an hour before I finally said okay this look is IT. My stylist was a champ the whole time. I did not mean to be difficult but...

So, I think I am kind of at a pausing point. Most of what is left are paying final payments. I had my hair trial last Thursday and it went really well. It took I think about an hour before I finally said okay this look is IT. My stylist was a champ the whole time. I did not mean to be difficult but there was something off and I kept having her change this and that until it was exactly how I wanted it. That is so out of character for me. I am usually the type that says ok it's fine even when it is not. haha! My makeup trial was scheduled for the same day but mua child was sick and she asked if we could reschedule in a couple of weeks. Next month the guys go to purchase their clothes and I am buying my husband's ring. I am just SO READY for the day to get here. I can not wait to be married. I have started making spreadsheets for everything, lol. I made one for the photographer, director/DOC, planner, myself! I feel so organized. Who knew I could be this organized??

    If I take off the whole week, I'm afraid it will be running around doing all the touristy crud I hate doing here in LA (mainly do to traffic). I know one of those days I want a message and just want to sleeeeeppppp!!

    Today has been an exciting day in my house. My veil arrived and matches my skirt perfectly! I was convinced I would have to return it. My future step daughter/jr bridesmaid and I made confetti for the invitations. We will be sealing them this week and mailing on Monday or Tuesday!

    @Rebecca - Yes, please! I'm sorry it took so long for me to respond. I left work just as you posted that! I would love some recommendations to pass along to FSIL!

    As far as my stress level-it is at an all time high! My Bridal Shower is this Saturday and i am so excited! I have my first dress fitting next week, and it seems that every weekend between now and October are completely booked up! It is going to come up so fast!

    Invitations should be out this week. The ones going to Ireland are being brought over by my fiance's coworkers when they return to Ireland to save us money. DJ is booked, just need to pick songs. Need to meet with reception venue to pick out food. My aunt said she'd make our cakes, so need to talk to her. Bought most of the decorations for reception. Feel good, but stills stressed.

    @Kate - I may have to take that Friday and get my nails done. I don't know when I will have time. I know everyone is going to want everything from me since I haven't seen my family who is coming for my wedding in like 2+ years??

    @Betsy - Bunratty Meadows outside of Limerick is amazing. Dorina and her husband have build an amazing B&B and it is local to a lot of cool stuff. The best way to do Ireland is drive. Getting lost was my favorite part. If you are going to Northern Ireland, let me get the name of my friend Elaine's B&B.

    I am kinda in a weird planning space too.

    I should be doing a little more research on music. Need jewelry, still. LOL. RSVP's are slow to come back. I thought since we were DW, that they'd come back quickly.

    We leave on Thursday morning. I am only planning a half day on Wednesday, since I'll be out the whole week after as well.

    @Rebecca - Thank you!! I will pass these along soon! I intended to pass them along today but FMIL called this morning to tell me that FH's Aunt had passed away. It was really super sudden. This weekend's baby shower for cousin has been put off a few weeks, so I don't think I'll probably get around to telling FSIL about the B&B's today. But thank you!!

    We have a lot of people coming from Ireland so we are taking from the Wednesday before off and then the whole week after for a mini moon to Myrtle Beach.

    @Betsy - aww that is terrible to hear! I am so sorry! If you need any additional places, let me know. My parents travel there so often, they have all the good stuff.
