Wedding Blog
Like many of y’all I have a little countdown to W day on my Google homepage (Mr. Lemonade has one on his too!). I don’t spend much time on the actual page anymore though, since I use my Crackberry for everything from reading blog posts in Reader, to sending email, to conversing on GChat.
100 days?!?! How the hell did this happen?!
You bet your sweet bouquet that upon recovery I fired of a few slightly panicky emails to our rock star DOC and other wedding VIPs.
100 days?! This means I only have 100 days to finish the ever-growing list of DIY madness, to have Jackie cut down, and to procure the Monarchs (or something similar). I have less than four months to find and order linens, neutralize swelling family drama, and make sure our guests book rooms in the damn hotel block I reserved and not some other random place.
Deep breath…
You know what though? It also means that there are only 100 short days until we greet our family and friends who will be pouring into the Great State from all 4 corners. Only 100 days until we get to indulge in the most amazing fiesta we’ve ever thrown. It means that after ten incredible years we have less than four months to go until Mr. Lemonade and I are joined for eternity in Holy matrimony in the eyes of our Lord and the Great State of Texas.
Forget the stress of the table numbers and photography and everything else – I can’t wait ‘til April!
All of a sudden 100 days seems like an eternity…
How prepared were you at T minus 100 days? Locked and loaded? Panicked and behind?

No advice from me, as I’m 35 days from hitting the big 1-0-0. Just wanted to say YAY! and here’s hoping it goes by quickly and stress free!
I had the same exact response. It’s funny how we manage to check in on the countdown on the milestone days. I randomly saw it at 100 days — and had a mini-freakout that went exactly as you wrote above — and then again at 50 days! Which was a few days ago, so it’s getting kind of scary, now.
All that to say — I wasn’t entirely prepared at 100 days. There were still many big things to accomplish. So no worries. It really is a lot of time!
This April will be one year until the big day…so I know that I have to start getting things together and finding a photography and talking to a dj and finding a florist, etc. I need to set a timeline for myself! BTW I like your Google background…do you know the name of it?
Wow, Miss Lemonade, we’re date twins! I knew I would start to feel the pressure when the New Year rolled around, but did I freak out when I realized yesterday was the 100-day mark. I got many of the major vendors secured early in the process. I took a break from the wedding planning in the fall, so now I need to get back on track. The main thing I’m concerned about is getting my bridesmaids and groomsmen in to get fitted for their attire.
Relax and realize that soon you and your sweetie will be husband and wife!
Cientos dias = “hundreds days”
Cien dias = “One hundred days”
Congrats on 100 days! I remember hitting a hundred and the panic setting it. I felt organized, but pushed to get the invites done because I knew that would be the one thing that had to be done by a certain time period. At 75 days is when i actual became short of breath for a few minutes. I couldn’t believe we were so close. Today is 64 days and I am once again calm and collected!
love the Texas pride! We are less than 40 days to go, and we’re excited to go get our license next Friday!!! (I think it’s stupid that it has to be w/in 30 days, since I wanted to go over the break, but oh well, I’m so behind on projects, anyway, hehe)
you can do it!! Plus I love your Tory Burch google wallpaper- I have the same!
100 days is still 3 months. That’s a whole entire summer. Plenty of time!
As of today, we have 105 days, and wow… I’m a little panic-y now. Intellectually, I know we’re in a good place - almost everything is taken care of, but emotionally, I’m not convinced. And this also means that we have a lot of big final payments coming up, so my stress levels aren’t exactly at their lowest.
@AC: My thoughts exactly. I was so debating writing it. Thanks for beating me to it. Really, thanks.
