May 2009 Brides

[Kristy!]

FMIL was MOH at her best friend's wedding last year. She totally forgot the groom's ring at home (2 1/2 hours away). Trust me, there are worse things that could happen. They just used the groom's BIL's ring. No one knew the difference.

 

Definitely expect that something will be forgotten. That's just how it works. If it makes you feel better, Carly forgot her dress! Luckily her parents were flying down the next day and brought it for her.

I leave in one week!!!!! My mom is still working on my dress. I really have everything done besides getting a bikini wax, eyebrows waxed, and a pedicure. I also wanted to go to the mall and have my makeup done, so I know how I wanna do it for the wedding. My bachloerette party is this sat. I am also getting my hair dyed and a trail wedding do this sat!!!

Over the past few months I think I've had approximately 10 dreams in which I've forgotten my dress at home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for my planning and prep ... FI and I realized this week that we have a lot to do and he's FINALLY on board with the OOT bag content purchasing ... so we're hitting the shops tonight after work to find:
- Sand ceremony vases (hoepfully at Pier 1, maybe Stokes)
- OOT bag goodies at Wal-Mart
- DIY supplies for OOT bags, dinner table

This Saturday I'm having my hair cut and colored ... and my bachlorette is on Saturday night. I can't WAIT!!

I know

In my dream we were using our everyday rings : DH wears one already, and we used my e-ring...

I'm like you, I keep having dreams that I forget my dress. In 1/2 I freak out, in the others I just buy another all calm-like very weird.

May I recommend that you hit up a dollar store for your OOT bags. They have a ton of good stuff and a lot of it is 2 for $1 so you get even more!

glad im not the only one who dreams crazy things about the wedding.. i used to dream that i didnt even buy my dress until the day of the wedding!!.. its really weird but i think its our subconscious preparing us for the wedding!

I think it will be funny to go back and see what was on my to-do list that I just say screw it, I don't care anymore. It will probably be a lot.

same here! LOL ... my second (maybe final?) fitting is tonight too.

jax, love the dress!

Yay a date twin!!! Hi!!!!!

And Jax I LOVE your dress!!! The train is gorgeous!

I'm hoping to pick up my dress next Saturday when I go for my final fitting ... JUST before I fly ... ;-) And I told my seamstress if I drop like 5 lbs in the next week and a 1/2 then she'll have like 5 days to fix it. LOL She wasn't too happy about that ...

I did sneak into the seamstress last night (shhhh) sans MOH and mother and I tried on the dress and it FINALLY fits perfectly. So, provided I don't do anything stupid (like starve myself or overeat or anything) then it should be absolutely perfect for the big day!
