The wedding is on Saturday, and myriad things remain undone. But, I’m officially stepping out of the fray at the end of the day today. No more last minute crafts; no more last minute errands. If it’s not done by 9pm today, we’re going forward without it!
If I would have changed anything about this process, I think I would have
1. Hired a wedding coordinator — why get an ulcer over vendors who don’t call back? Pay a coordinator for that.
2. Bought my dress online — 30% off is 30% off.
3. Made my own veil — $675 for a piece of netting?
4. Registered at a national store — Michael C. Fina is fine for NYC, but their online system is bunk.
5. Looked into J.Crew for bridesmaids’ dresses — easy ordering, easy returns, no sour faced bridal emporium employees!
6. Ordered more vegetarian options for the reception — as of now, they’re eating mashed potatoes and grilled eggplant.
7. Asked more people for help — and possibly been less of a craft control freak.
Okay, off to run errands!
i was working on my wedding upto midnight the night before the wedding :@
grilled eggplant sounds yummy 
Your vegetarian options sound better than the ones we’re being offered: Who wants to eat a baked potato for dinner? JUST a baked potato? I’m going to have to find a way around that. Good luck!!
I am so impressed that you have time to blog at all– you’re a star! I hope things calm down for you and you have time to enjoy everything soon!
Made your own veil! I tried that but broke the darn hair comb too many times! I found a website and bought mine for 35 bucks! Hopefully it turns out ok.
Oh those vegetarian options sound very adequate–as a veggie, I can tell you that at sooooo many weddings and events I’ve had nothing to eat besides a dinner roll and dessert. The eggplant sounds delicious!
it’s the home stretch!!! good luck and don’t forget to have fun. It goes by so fast.
Godspeed.

Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.
