About Mrs. Waffle

How did this get here so quickly?! It feels like just the other day I was calling my nearest and dearest people and exclaiming, “I’m engaaaaaaaaaaaaaged! AHHHHHHHHHHH!”

Now we’re a month away? Really? REALLY?

There’s a fair amount of items lingering on the to do list, but I thought, instead of being bogged down in all there is left to do, it would be fun to take a glance at all of the things we’ve accomplished so far.

We got engaged atop the Griffith Observatory in LA…

and went on a venue hunt where we discovered the beautiful Hummingbird House.

We picked delicious family style, BBQ catering with Royal Fig…

and, after a sugar induced coma, chose Blue Note Bakery to supply our dessert bar.

Being chosen to be a bee was another super exciting event!

We made decisions on all the pretty details such as centerpiece decor, a cake topper, escort cards/favors, flowers and even picked out a dress, shoes and a suit. Save the dates were mailed around the globe…

…and not long after, invitations were sent too.

As happens to every bride at one point, I hit the wall and had a little meltdown…

…but with Mr Waffle and amazing friends by my side, I was able to pick it up and keep on going.

We’ve just got a few small projects to finish, vows to write and music to choose. I have loved this whole journey so far (even the yucky, crying parts) and think this final month is gonna be a fantastic last leg of the race to the altar!

Do you have about one month left until your own wedding? How are you feeling right now?

We’re getting married the week before…and I’m a duck. calm on the exterior, paddling furiously underneath- except my ‘paddling’ consists of breaking out in hives (almost daily) and being extremely fretful that everything we’ve NOT done will turn into a wedding disastrophe.

ugghhhhh. but that’s one of the reasons I love Mister. He’s the complimentary ‘go-with-the-flow’ to my 31 flavors of neuroses.

I love this post! Posts like this should become a WeddingBee “one month away” tradition, to tie things together and bring newbees up to date!

And on a side note, I adore your illustrations! I so look forward to them. Do you by any chance color them with Chartpak markers? The coloring reminds me of those.

I missed your post on the Save-The-Dates but oh they are SO cute!! D’aww, I would totally actually use the strings to ‘tie the knot’ on the invite, tee hee.

And I agree with @dolphindoll: that these posts are great for others to catch up, and make a cute recap!
