*finally another post! WOO! 88 days to go!!*

Oh lord. It has been almost 3 months since I have posted in this blog! And LESS than 3 months until we are married! AHHHHHH

88 days!! whaaat?? haha

Ok, so I'm just going to jump right into what's new:

Invitation madness. They are ALMOST done. This Saturday will be the last of it! And then they will FINALLY be mailed out! I know they're not late going out or anything.. it just seems like we have been working on them for forever already. And we have. lol.

the whole shebang

Pammie hard at work!

150! We spent 4 hours just cutting the pocketfolds that day. lol.

They are so gorgeous now and ALMOST done. I will take more pics of the finished product this weekend! I kept meaning to take pics of them step by step but oh well. I love the font we chose also. It's so nerdy. I hope a few people get it. >:D

Bailey got me pearls for Christmas! They will be part of my wedding day ensemble <3

The last two bridesmaids have their dresses & shoes now!

I also finally ordered the girls' petticoats! I decided on Etsy seller: dynamitejetboutique

Here are some progress pics she sent me:

And I got an email from her tonite saying that they are finished!! She's posting pics later & I can't waaaait to see!!

p.s. She is AMAZING to work with. She has been so freaking helpful. And before I had officially decided on working with her I asked her for some swatches and THIS is what she sent me:

SO freaking thorough & helpful!! I mean, holy crap! She has seriously been amazing to work with so far. I can't say enough good things about her! <3

I still don't have my wedding band yet but these are two that I was THINKING about using..

the studded looking one obv.

or:

or maybe something more traditional! I just don't knowwwww!!

AND OH HEY! My baby sister also got engaged a few weeks ago!!

YAYYYY!!! So it looks like I'll be jumping headfirst into MORE wedding planning as soon as ours is over and done with! haha

Ok, I think that's all I've got for right now. There will be a hair & makeup post coming SOON. And I seriously need some input & opinions <3>

*wedding overdrive*

I am feeling so overwhelmed lately.

What's new?

April ordered a size smaller in her dress and got it in the mail the other day. It looks great so I think she's going to go with that one! :] It fits a little better in the boobage area and it's not as long! She also ordered her purple petticoat yesterday! So I cant wait to see it all together!! :D

I talked to Mama yesterday and she expressed some concern over having the reception at her house because if people are drinking they would need to stay somewhere nearby obviously... which is a problem because there is NOTHING near my mom's house in the way of hotels. Nothing. Nada.
So now we are looking at possibly renting something in Richmond Hill for the reception. I just hope we find something that will go along with what we want! *crosses fingers* [and somewhere that will still let us get crunk hahaha]

Also, I saw this yesterday in one of my wedding communities and I fell in LOVE. So I sent it to my mom and asked her if my stepdad could make it.. and it looks pretty promising! Sooooo I'm excited because we will be making one of these!!!
So cute. I already have ideas in my head of how I want it to look! <3

Today I made a list of the DIY things that we need to get started on:

-invitations [soon! we are waiting on the samples that Pammie ordered!]
-photo booth wall
-bouquet charms
-time capsule
-card box
-bridesmaid's hairpieces
-bride / bridesmaid emergency kits

I know I'm forgetting some things.. like I said, overwhelmed. I feel like my brain is FULL!

I'm anxiously awaiting my wedding contract in the mail and I am DYING for it to get here. haha. I finally heard from our wedding coordinator yesterday!

I've been collecting addresses also, the sooner the better. And I cant WAIT to get my invites out! :D
