I remember thinking over a year ago, when Mr. Ballet Flat slipped this ring on my finger, that our wedding couldn’t come soon enough! I remember gazing at a countdown that read over 400 days, then 200 days, then, oh my gosh, 99 days! A few days ago, the countdown read 9 days! Wow… where did the time go?

When I started writing for Weddingbee, I remember reading recaps and thinking, ‘My time for these will NEVER come. I’m just planning forever, it seems.’ However, I think it’s time for me to eat my words.
Everything is THIS WEEK! The bachelorette party, the rehearsal dinner, the wedding… it’s ALL about to happen!
It hasn’t hit me hard yet. I feel so relaxed about it all, which is strange.
There are things I should be panicking about. Our programs aren’t finished (my procrastination), my illness turned into a sinus infection that is taking its good time healing, and it’s possible that a (extra-/sub-/who knows what it will be) tropical system will develop (there goes my weather geek side) and pour rain down on our big day and Disney World road trip! Geez… and, the packing. Woo! I hate packing!
However, I like to think that no matter what, it’s gonna be a lot of fun and we will finally be MARRIED!
Has time flown for you in your planning? If you are close to the big day, has it really hit yet that you are about to be married? 
Good luck to you, Miss Ballet Flat! I remember that feeling well. Enjoy every minute and try not to let anything stress you out, because afterwards, it won’t have mattered anyway.
So many Bee weddings this weekend - wow!
Yea!! I can’t wait to see pictures of your upcoming wedding miss ballet flat! I know exactly what you mean though. I have been engaged for 15 months and am getting married in a little over 4 months….I remember thinking that time was going to drag on and it would take forever. But now that we’re under the 6 month mark, I’m getting really nervous about everything there is to get done! It’s so true, that time flies!!
Yes, I’ve totally felt like the day will NEVER get here! We’ll have been engaged for 14 months by the time the big day rolls around, but less than two months to go!
I’m SO excited for you, BF. Yay for wedding week!!!! 
Yes. It really hit me at about two weeks. Now it’s coming up this weekend and I’m just floored — I don’t know what to do! I think everything is settled, but I can’t be sure…
I totally agree…all the sudden it is coming so fast. I’ll have my fingers crossed that you have good weather along with the other bees getting married this weekend.
yes, things seemed to all fly by the week before because I had so much fun! I had an outdoor party and didn’t really want a tent but the worrying about the weather didn’t stop until we actually broke down and got a tent. It was the right thing to do since I live on the east coast and it hasn’t been dry for any amount of time recently. Hope everything goes perfectly!
Best of luck with the weather and enjoy yourself no matter what happens! You’ll do fine on the programs and packing Congrats!!
We are 173 days out (not that I am stocking my Google countdown or anything..) and even that number FREAKS ME OUT!
I can’t wait to see your recaps though (yeah I’m jumping to recaps already) I have enjoyed seeing all your planning, and can’t wait to see how it all pulls together! And I will have my fingers crossed for you for the weather!
We still have plenty time before the wedding, but these months after the proposal have really flown by!
Congrats! Reading your post about your wedding week just gave me butterflies even though my wedding is still 5 mos away!
Time is definitely flying…love the clock, btw!! I can’t believe I have less than 3 months and I remember that there was like 400 days not too long ago! I know it will be beautiful for you, rain or shine.
Best of luck and best wishes! And don’t worry about the whatever-it-is near Cuba–I have faith that weddingbee readers can no-rain-dance it away!
Hugs, and can’t wait to see the recaps!
Good Luck BF! I’m doing a no rain dance over here and sending it your way
YAY for your Wedding Week!!!
My wedding is the 30th of this month and I am going crazy! I am all worried and worked up. Time flew by after taking way too long and now wedding is around the corner. Whatever you need to do it will get done and your day will be fabulous no matter what Miss BF!!
Sending a pre-congratulations your way Miss BF!!!!!! I know exactly what you mean…our wedding is in about 3 months and I remember when we first got engaged over a year ago how long I was going to have to wait to be the Mrs….now it’s coming up in a few months and I get more and more excited each day!
Congratulations Miss BF! I got married just over 3 weeks ago and the last month before the wedding flew by and the week of was a blur. I was feeling unprepared, but everything came together in the end. Enjoy your day. I am sending good weather wishes your way!
congrats!!!! i’m at 45 days now and i think the big OMG hasn’t hit me yet.
super excited for your wedding week–glad it’s finally here!
I can’t believe I only have 4.5 weeks to go!

My idea of a great date night is dinner and clearance shopping with Mr. Ballet Flat! I currently live below sea level in the suburbs near New Orleans, where I make maps all day, everyday for my job. I'm slowly becoming more and more obsessed with anything New Orleans related for our wedding, and I can't wait for the big day!
