Do you ladies have a detailed schedule of how your day should go?
I'm really big on being organized and on time, however, I don't want to come across as someone who is a control freak if I have a schedule that I want EVERYONE who is helping with the wedding to stick to.
I'm having hard time remembering every little detail, too. I have so much going on right now so I'm stressing. I keep thinking I'm forgetting something!!!! Ack!
