I like to pretend that I was one of those girls that had my whole wedding planned out so that when I got engaged I would know exactly what I wanted! Well, turns out that a girl can dream, but that dream probably isn’t going to become reality, at least not too easily.
We are less than 8 months away from our wedding and
I feel like I haven’t accomplished anything at all. When I add things to my
list though, it seems like we are making progress. We have a date, venue, DJ,
Photographer, Photobooth, wedding party, party bus, wedding dress,
readings…..yeah that’s about it. There are so many other things to figure out
yet! Centerpieces/decorations, bridesmaid dresses and tuxes, FLOWERS!, songs, invitations,
finishing our gift registries, CAKE!, and all sorts of other things I had no
idea needed to be done, ha! I know I will feel much better when we have dresses
and tuxes picked out, that’s for sure!
Mostly I’m excited to BE MARRIED. Yes, being engaged
is a great time in my life and I have enjoyed every minute of it, but I’m
ready! I didn’t think a yearlong engagement would be so bad, but when you’re as
excited as I am, it kind of is! That being said, I am so glad I have the amount
of time that I do to plan everything because I can only do so much before I am
overwhelmed and need to take a break from it all. I can’t imagine trying to
plan a wedding in 6 months, or even less! I feel like I would completely lose
my mind and probably not make the best decisions about things.
Having a wedding party and families that are spread
out is making things a bit difficult too, but soon enough we will be closer to
my family and maybe things will be easier. I know having help close by will
probably ease my stress. At any rate, I know October will be here before we
know it, and I cannot wait to see how everything comes together!
