This is my journey...
 
I am going crazy! Happy crazy, but still crazy!

We finally set a new wedding date! We are getting married Saturday, Nov. 30, 2013 at 3 pm! I am beyond excited!!!! (You could probably tell by the excessive use of exclamation points... Lol!)

This means that I have 5 months, 2 weeks, 5 days, 19 hours, 45 minutes, and (as of ths exact moment) 37 seconds until I am walking down that aisle. That is 25 weeks. 173 days. 4,149 hours. 248,925 minutes. 14,935,420 seconds!

There is so much that needs to be done, and so little time to do it! I'm worried that we won't be able to finish everything. I need to finalize the guest list, order save-the-dates, address and send out the save-the-dates, order invitations (that don't cost an arm and a leg!), get them out and wait for response cards, finalize guest count, make a seating chart. I need to find a large (40 x 60 or bigger) tent to rent, with a floor in case of rain. I need a photographer (again, one that is affordable!) We have to decide if we want to stick with BBQ style food for the reception, and if so, what all to serve. I need to finalize the bridesmaid dresses, and go try on my dress again. I also need a veil and possibly a capelet.... Question: Will a capelet for my arms and shoulders work with a cathedral length veil? It will probably be cold, and I am not a fan of my arms, so I would like to have them covered. And, it's Snow White themed, so a little capelet would be adorable. But will a veil work, or will that be too much going on? I really want my veil! I need to figure out shoes and accessories, as well as undergarments for me. I need to get the dress altered. We need to decide what color suits we want for the men. The girls will be wearing yellow dresses and carrying blue flowers. The boys will have blue ties, and a yellow buttonire. So, grey or black suits? I personally like grey better, but don't know if it will match. Chris and I also need to re-register for everything, since when we cancelled our March 23rd wedding, our registries ended up expiring. I'm also fairly certain that this list is incomplete, and that there are lots of things that I am forgetting at the moment.

I also want to lose at least 50 pounds by the wedding. I want to look like a princess on my wedding day, and feel 100% beautiful. I'm starting to worry a bit that it might not turn out that way.

Whew! I feel better now that I got all that out. Anybody have any suggestions/advice/opinions? Feel free to leave me a comment!

Lots of love,
Kylie

Hello Kylie,
Congratulations. I wish you and your future husband all the happiness. Your ideas for your wedding sound absolutely fabulous. The Snow White theme you said you chose sounds so cute. I am a huge Disney fan myself.
