Wedding Early Oct brides shout-out - what''s left?

[Krissie]

Hey fellow October brides - just wanted to see how you''re all doing. Anything big that still needs to be tackled?

I think I''m pretty much done with everything in my control, other than checking up on the zillions of things I delegated. Had my final fitting today - still a few things to be done on the dress, and the bustle may or may not work when my bridesmaids attempt it, but we''ll see!

Still to do: fill out escort cards and put the finishing touches on the centerpieces!

To be fair, our wedding''s in less than 4 days... there are a lot of things that have been crossed off the list over the last week and a half! I still feel like I''m forgetting things, though...

I am just getting used to saying outloud to people, "I am getting married next week." hehe!

Lets see.. fill out place cards, choose which vase for centerpieces, get FI to wrap his best mans gift, get ceremony programs printed, get a hair cut, meet with the petsitter..I think thats about it for now, my wedding is about 4 hours from here so I cant do too much else until I head out there, which will be the 9th.

I hope everyone else is doing well! Actually writing down whats left makes me feel like my list is pretty managable.

Not that the stress ends, though! I am MOH for my sisters wedding Dec. 6!

I don''t know how you are doing all this DIY yourself -- I would totally be screwing things up due to stress. Major props to you, lady! You are going to be an absolutely stunning bride, and you are going to have the BEST honeymoon - I am so jealous!!
