I's Married Now
My wedding week

SO ladies of WBC this is going to be a very long post, maybe I should separate into two, anywho here goes...

My post a day went right down the drain because ladies your time and attention will be pulled EVERYWHERE! I foolishly thought I would be able to work up until the day of my wedding and that put me behind so far it wasn't even funny so my first advice, TAKE TIME OFF!

My journey of wedding-dom started out just fine the weekend prior to our wedding was spent cleaning and cleaning and cleaning because we were having guest over starting Tuesday 8/17 a bus of 20 at that and guess where their first stop was going to be our home. Picture this. 3 bedroom ranch, one bathroom, 10 guests plus our 4. BUT it was fine. That Tuesday I went to work (never should have done that), came home to clean and thats when I realized we had no food so around 7pm I went to the grocery store, got a call that the folks were in our driveway so I had to rush home and try to cook something for them because I am such a gracious host, LOL.

11pm I am exhausted and I have work the next day...

Wednesday 8/18....Drama begins...

The cleaners call me while I am at work and they tell me "Ms.Williams, your dress is going to be so perfect and clean and everything will be just fine, the only thing is that your dress will not be here until Wednesday 8/25." (My wedding was 8/20). WTF Mr. Cleaner guy! so after crying my eyes out and calling everyone and their mama we get some kind of solution, my dress is 45minutes past Niagara Falls, CANADA and I can either have it shipped overnight and it may be her by Friday or I can go get it..Guess what...ROAD TRIP...

I am just going to say if I had a gun I would have killed the cleaners, we drove 2 hours there, had to wait an 1.5 hours because the guy in Rochester was saying I hadn't paid (which I hadn't I refused to), so after the cops being called and some crcodile tears in Canada my dress was released and the rest of my wedding seemed to fall into place.

Next post will be about my actual wedding day and some vendor reviews, just in case there are folks in the area who are still looking.

P.S. I thought I wouldn't feel different, yet I do and it is such a wonderful feeling of joy.
