Mani-Pedi Ready

The wedding is officially SEVEN days away. That means that in one week (give or take a few hours), I will be a "Mrs."

Exciting! Scary! Both! But in order to keep the big day from being too scary, I just have to make sure I'm prepared. That means perfecting our first dance choreography (see next post) and taking care of any final items that need to be done before the wedding. That means finishing the favors, printing the programs, and nailing my wedding-day nails look.

I wish I could take credit for my new French tips, but I don't know the first thing about nail polish. My fiance's mom treated me to a mani-pedi (the second one I've ever had in my life and my first one with gels!) at The Nail Shoppe LV in town.

I'm ready for ring shots!

So now it's just a matter of fixing our little mistakes. Don't look at my feet. Don't forget to smile. Keep a straight line with shoulders. Glide when I walk. It's like learning to be a princess! Which is kind of what a wedding should be, isn't it? Here's some photos from a Thanksgiving practice (shout out to fiance's awesome sister for coming to help us on a ho...

Controlled Chaos?

I felt like June and July were fairly smooth. I jumped on top of the planning process, made contacts, kept notes organized, and made some crucial decisions. Then August rolled around and I found myself having to re-visit some areas and re-evaluate some choices. While having the opportunity to improve  certain aspects of my wedding before they are finalized is ultimately beneficial, the stress of now second guessing myself has made this month a little more bumpy--not so much in terms of the wedding planning itself but in terms of my attitude toward the wedding planning. As much as I enjoy organizing, crafting, creating, and celebrating, it might not be the best idea to put an introverted, indecisive, perfectionist in charge of a wedding. Especially when you want to make everyone happy (including yourself) and everyone has an opinion. I don't mean this in a bad way--others' opinions allow me to see decisions from a different point of view and include things I'd never...
