TIME FLEW , 8 DAYS LEFT!!!!
Hey Ladies,
I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. I have 8 more days left until I'm a Mrs. I can't believe how fast time Flew, I just feel like yesterday when I started planning this wedding. Everything is working itself out, which I am glad of because these past week have been a little stressful. We have switch our caterer this week, at the last minute. They worked out something to be in our budget which is great, so exciting. I meet with them again today for down payment. So I really don't know what I am going to tell the old caterer, do ya'll have any suggestions for me? I wasn't under contract with the old caterer , they have just been sending me proposal and I'm happy I didn't put any money down on the old caterers. Things left to do: Pay Caterer Last pay for DJ(Rehearsal Day) Last Payment for Day Coordinators(Wedding Day) I believe thats it, but I could be forgetting something. |

22 DAYS LEFT!!!!
I am so excited, time is getting near!!!!
Hi Ladies of WBC,
WHERE MY SEPTEMBER BRIDES AT: WE HAVE 22 DAYS LEFT!!! YAY!!!!!!!! My to do list is getting shorter and shorter, these last couple of months have been stressful some, getting everything together and having everyone on the same page. I started planning early so I wouldn't be going through what I'm going through. To me it doesn't matter how early you plan, something always come up, but it's alright. The day is almost here and things are getting paid off. We are paying everything upfront because we don't want to be in debt after this wedding and after we say our I do's, we don't have to be worry about paying vendors. THINGS LEFT TO DO: Pay off DJ(Pay day of Rehearsal) Pay Day Coordinators(Day of Wedding) Pay Security(Day of) I really don't like that fact that we have to be this but this is one of their rules. Might have to purchase two extra linen table cloth Finish up favor Finish up Pomander Ball for the church Finish making Place Card for seating chart Thats all I can think of at this moment and I know I'm missing something |

WEDDING COUNTDOWN!!!!
I'M STARTING MY COUNTDOWN
I can't believe in 29 days I will be marrying my best friend, everything is coming together. We finally got our marriage license yesterday and it didn't take long at all. I'm so excited. My to do list is getting smaller and smaller. Our Guest list have grown alot and I had to tell my mom to tell people that they could come to the ceremony but not the receptions because are reception is close to the max.
If I could do my invites all over again, I would have made it clear that you are able to bring one other person because people have gotten out of hand by wanting to bring five to seven people with them, which I fell in very inconsiderate, So I had to tell them that they couldn't bring all those people. People just get carried away when it comes down to wedding. I'm just going to have people mad at me. |

FREE BRIDAL BOUQUET!!!!!!!
Hi WBC,
I am so excited that I am getting my bridal bouquet absolutely free. Thats a blessing in itself. I didn't have a flower budget because I was going to make the bridal bouquets and boutoniere myself to save some money. I first I thought she was joking about my bridal bouquet is free. So I decided to let her do my entire wedding party bouquet and bountoniere and I don't have a small wedding party including the mother(s) corsage and grandmother its a total of 17 people. So I just knew it was going to cost me and arm in a leg but guess what she is blessing my day in charging me under $300.00 to do all my bridal party bouquets/boutoniere and my toss one. I'm having calla lilies and roses. I'm so excited, I can't wait to see the finish product. |

I NEED TO VENT!!!!!
SOON TO BE MOTHER -IN- LAW!!!!
Hi Ladies of WBC,
Ok, I need to vent because this have been bothering me from sometime now and I'm trying not to go off. My soon to be mother-in-law is the most self centered person I know, everything have to be about her but if you ever met her, you wouldn't think that she is this way. It doesn't make since for her to be acting this way. My FH and I have been engaged for over a year and a half. Everything have to be on her time and she act like she always busy, which she doesn't. Ok FH is her only child and you would think that she will be supportive, but that not the case. She don't have a care in the world that we are getting married and she ask like we aren't getting married in two months. She wasn't supportive about anything in his life. Everyone tells me that she acting like this because I took her son away, time for her to get over it. Fh and I have been together for six and half years, she need to let it go. She want you to be supportive on the things she is doing, how selfish is that. Her dress for the wedding have been sitting in my closet for over a month and half, do you think if she ask about her dress or even come by in get it NO!! She don't have a care in the world. My FH really wants his mother to be supportive and it doesn't make any since for her to be acting this way. I never disrespected her or anything. My FH grandmother is helping and asking is there anything that she can do, don't you think his mom should be like anything I can help you with no, So one day I ask and she was like I have to check my schedule and I am like here we go with checking the schedule thing. She was suppose to be helping me finish up the pomander balls, guess what she's not helping. I'm like can it be about your son and his happiness just this once and not all about you. I am so ready to tell her off but I'm not trying to be disrespectable about it because I know myself , the way I feel now it wouldn't come off nicely. I just don't know what to do because its bother my FH and its starting to get under my skin, because she have to understand the world doesn't revolve around her. The other day she told my FH that he not be supportive of her bowling, are you freaking serious, your son is about to get married and you don't have a care in the world and all she can talk and think about is bowling. I really want to tell her about herself, but this have to stop. she just negative. I just want to tell her, let your son, have a moment and let this one time be about him. Sorry Ladies about this extremely long post, but I need some help ladies. What should I do? Should I tell her about herself now or should I continue biting my tongue or let my FH handle it. |
