    1. Work Out - Kicking asses and taking names! I've had a ton of compliments from people noticing I've lost weight and crazy visible body changes!! It's keeping me on top of my game!
    ChristaLee, that's awesome!! Congrats on all of your success; makes the pain and sweat worth it, doesn't it?! cheer2.gif

    Yay yay yay yay yay!!! I just got my BD photos and they are out of this world! I'm sure for those of you who have yours already, you can relate to the shock of seeing yourself like that.
    Good for you Wendy!! I can't wait to see some; I'm sure you look awesome! Your FI is going to love that gift smile159.gif

  3. Hey! I think your best bet is to think of the people you HAVE to have at your wedding--the friends and family that you couldn't imagine getting married without, and asking them. My FI and I only finalized everything 6 months beforehand, and we had been engaged 3 months before that. We checked with our family and closest friends, and they all swore they would be there no matter what. We have a group of about 25 booked, which is probably smaller than if we had given more time, but we had to do what is best for us. So if a DW in 6 months works best for you, just be prepared that not everyone might make it (but that is the case in any DW) Hope this helps some!

    I got my proof pix for my real touch flowers:
    Amy, they are gorgeous!!

    Taylor, awesome job on getting so much stuff done--I need to start kicking it into high gear!!

    I understand what everyone else is going through. I had someone last night joke that they will need to take out a mortgage on their house in order to attend my wedding--I know he was just playing around, but it just makes me feel guilty, like I shouldn't have done a DW. But I keep reminding myself this is what I have wanted my whole life, and the people who come are super-excited about it.

    I'm not sleeping great either me and FI have been at each others throats over the weekend and whilst things are generally ok, I think the stress of the wedding is getting to us both....wondered if maybe a common thing this close to the wedding?
    SOOOO glad to know I'm not the only one! I have started having wedding nightmares. The other night, I had forgotten to get my dress altered and it slid down during the ceremony, and last night, we forgot to book a reception place so it was at a greasy hamburger place smile27.gif

    Katie, I totally understand what you're going through! My FI and I have been bickering a lot more recently. The stress of everything I think has finally gotten to both of us. Right now, all we need is to fly down to Mexico and lay on the warm beach with a cold drink in hand!
