Um…what happened to the last two months?

It feels like we went to sleep and woke up 3 months from the big day!

I’m stressed.

Well, not really.

I’ve actually been really laid back and calm about the whole thing these last few weeks. I’m feeling confident because all of our big vendors are booked and we’re on target in terms of our budget. I took a mental break during the holidays, and that was nice.

Now that the sparkle of Christmas and New Year’s is fading, the reality of our wedding—about 90 days away—is settling in. My immediate thought was definitely “Oh sh*t! Time to haul ass!” I didn’t realize how close we’d be after the holidays.

I’ve counted them out, and there’s 12 weekends between now and then, and about um, about 40 projects. Yes! 40! A lot of those are small things like buying the bridal party gifts, but there are some biggies too, like the escort card display…

To get it all done, I’ve decided it’s time I ask for help.

I’ve spent the last year and a half trying to do this on my own and it hasn’t gotten me anywhere (hello! 40 projects)! My first order of business is to call meetings. The first one being with Mr. B because it’s impeccable we’re on the same page.

My other meetings effective immediately are with my maid of honor and mom to debrief them on all the leftover projects. We’re outlining every day of the next few weeks and going to plan out each project and event…it’s going to be a busy time…

I’m actually really excited. This is the fun part. Even though the tasks seem a bit daunting, it’s finally time to do the stuff I’ve been day dreaming about and planning for the last year and a half. I’m also really excited about the wedding, moving in with Mr. B; and of course, our honeymoon.

It feels like we’ve just started in on that last few miles of a big race!

Ready, set, go…

Are you on a mad dash before your wedding, too?
