Welcome back to the Bunny Bridal Countdown, hosted by Mrs. Bunny!

When we last left our intrepid heroine, she was one week away from her wedding and had the night of her life bowling a turkey at her bachelorette party.

The week before our wedding was absolute insanity. I won’t give you the play by play because that would take forever, but let’s just say it involved moving both Mr. B and I out of our apartments, designing a newspaper/program from scratch, resolving an issue with our musicians, who had suddenly refused to play the wedding, and attempting to complete about 5 million DIY projects that were only half finished. On top of all of the above, we both worked Monday and Tuesday, racing against the newspaper deadline to file our copy for the next two weeks before we left for our honeymoon.

Fortunately, I had my best friend, Bethany, in town from Japan and MOH Sister Bunny to help me every step of the way.

I also had this little fella:

This was my book — my bible, my master to-do list. Want to see how much work we did in the last few days before the wedding?

That’s Bethany’s handwriting, by the way. If it looks like total insanity, that’s because it was. Here’s what was on the list:

• fix bangs
• Biore pore perfect
• fingernails
• toenails - touch up
• eyebrows - get done?
• test-run-makeup
• Assemble center piece items
• create playlist CDs
• laundry
• fix hair flower
• paper chains
• bathroom baskets
• gather platters
• assemble guestbook
• necklaces - photos
• choc. chip cookies
• find topper
• scan photo
• OOT bags
• assemble free items
• RW&B bracelets
• Jo-ann fabrics - tie boxes
• Olive Garden
• Mr. Bunny’s ring engraving
• pick up programs
• buy parent cards
• new social security card
• marriage license

In the last 4-5 days before the wedding, we got all of these done! And I couldn’t have done it without my BFFs.
