I know what you mean! Im not sure if I every had any creative juices, well the invites turned out good, but that's it!
So, I have decided to delegate. Fi says I will be a great manager one day! I hired a wedding designer to finish up all of my loose ends, haha. Oops. But, it is not expensive in the scheme of things and I just don't have the time! I know everyone is busy, but not everyone flys accross country every week Mon-Friday, right?!. I am doing laundry, hanging out with family, spending quality time with FI... that is what I need to be doing. Well, that and figuring out how the heck I am going to bring everything here!

Well Christene, you picked a great time to join us since you have 1 month, 1 week, and 1 day before your big day!

How ready is everybody?

 

I'm not as ready as I thought I was! LOL

 

I still have to figure out what hair style I want (I dyed my hair last weekend and just had it cut today); find my 'must take' photo's and compile a list; figure out when/where to get my mani/pedi; find a nice bra for the dress; find a new swimsuit; find water shoes for the shore excursions... and the list goes on.

 

Can anyone share their 'must take' photos? I am so lost in this task.

 

Anyone have plans for Christmas? Ours is going to be low-key; also, my cousin is throwing my wedding shower after Christmas - actually, the week before we leave!

I am in the middle of creating my "must have" list. I am hoping to have it done by the end of the this weekend & I will post then!

My photographer said that she would send me a checklist 4 weeks before... so the week after Christmas I was planning on tackling that one. I have been saving some pics though. If I get them organized I'll post them here.

It is freezing here! Can't wait to be in Mexico~

I scanned a copy I had from my planner and posted it. It is for a very traditional wedding so I crossed out what I didn't want. We are only have a MOH and BM so I dont need all the other shots of wedding party. My scanner was being an PIA so it is cut off but you should get the gist of it. I also added:

 

-my wedding dress

-bouquet with my nana's locket

-My FI and I are just exchanging cards so I want a picture of us reading them

-signing the paperwork

-steel drum band

-champagne toast

-bride being given away

-group photo of all our guests

-a thankyou picture

-gazebo

-a shot of all of us at the table

Here is my list of photos...it is obviously customized to our family & attendants, but it will give you a starting point anyway!! Let me know if there is anything you think I missed!!!

I'm also going to send along a few actual pictures for examples.
