I can hardly believe that I’ve got one month until I marry the most amazing woman I’ve ever met. One month? How in the heck did time fly so quick?! It seems like just yesterday we were booking our venue 15 months in advance.
We’re still setting up our new house, ironing out kinks with vendors (like FI Eagle’s hair/makeup person cancelling—seriously?!), and DIY’ing like mad. We’ve had some disappointing RSVPs, but I’m trying my hardest to not let it rain on our parade. We’re getting married! I couldn’t be more excited to have her as my WIFE and to have our own little family.

I’ve got more to do than I can imagine, but I’m trying to make it all work. I’m swamped at work, and even more swamped with wedding stuff. It’s times like these that I wish we were able to legally marry in Vegas or some other destination-wedding hotspot so the wedding wouldn’t be so much work. But I’m keeping my eye on the prize, and I know in the end that everything will come together. (Why? Because we have an amazing DOC and I trust her 100%.)
How did you spend your last month before the wedding? Were you super stressed and DIY’ing like mad as well? How did you deal with all the stress?
Everything is going to be perfect! because, in the end, you’ll be married and that’s all that matters!! 
I am at day 87 and DIY’ing like a mad woman!
Im FTFO, this morning i had heart palpatations trying to figure out music- who knew you had to have a song for freaking everything!
I have a good amount of DIY stuff to do including sewing together 150 ribbon flower thingys for our chairs, 150 seating card assignments, and i know im missing things. I try not to exude my stress and say “foos gra ba” alot! Yay for the big day!!!
Everything is going to turn out and look beautiful! I have faith in you.
Good luck sweetie, I know everything will come together beautifully!
You’re getting so soon now, enjoy the last month, it will all come together wonderfully!
I’m a stresser, so I know I’ll feel the same way! Just remember, you and FI Eagle are going to have a gorgeous day. We’re all cheering for ya!
So exciting! Wishing you all the best as you finish up. Hope you and FI Eagle find some time to just spend with each other amidst the madness.
And GOOD LUCK with a new hair / makeup person for her – canceling so late is just terrible!
I am at 1 month too, eeek! I am currently stressfree but I know that will change in a few weeks!! And that pic of the two of you is so beautiful
