Well my last bridesmaid got her dress altered yesterday. The last three dresses will be done a week from today. Hooray!! No freaking out about dresses anymore. We are working on our wedding programs tomorrow, they are all hand made so they will take awhile to make. And there's only 350 of them... We still have to meet with and pay or DJ, finalize all of the flowers, get our honeymoon papers, and wrap the gifts for our wedding party. Which reminds me, I'm still waiting for one more....I'm pretty sure it was suppose to come with the other ones, last week, so I better make a phone call on that. After all that is done, I just need to stay calm, and busy. Thats the worst party, waiting. Maybe I should have left more stuff for the last minute so I wouldn't be sitting around too much the last week. I'm sure I'll be able to find something to do. Shopping, packing for the honeymoon, repacking for the honeymoon, Josh's laundry. Yeah I'll keep busy.

Three weeks to go
Wow I haven't written on here in a long time. But I have a very legitamate excuse, I'm getting married in three weeks!! I can't believe how fast its coming up. Things are finally starting to get checked of the huge list. We got our cake, marriage license, the favors are done, molly and melinda's dresses finally came in today!!! Now we have Maria and Anna's to wait for, hopefully they will be in Monday. I have my last bridal shower tomorrow with Josh's family. I think it will be a good time. Christine is so nice to have offered to give me a shower.
Lets see, what else... Well we moved in to our new apartment. It looked sooo small when we first moved in. But now that we have all of our furniture in place and dished out tons of money for lamps, curtains, bookshelves, rugs, and a table, it doesn't seem so bad. Once we get married I would love to have visitors!!! Most of my family hasn't even see it yet. A few saw it when we moved it, we had so much help that day, it was so nice!
I am just trying to stay calm and sane for the the next three weeks. There isn't too much to do. We meet with the caterers on Monday, to decide on our menu and tell them how many people are coming. However, we are still missing RSVPs from about 100 people. Thats a lot. That's $1300 for food, and if we end up paying for all of that food and they don't show up I will be an angry bride. I probably won't have time to care on my wedding day but you can bet when I get back from my honeymoon I will make a point to figure out who was there that didn't RSVP. So if that is you- GET YOUR RSVP IN THE MAIL!!!!
Our rings are done next week, our honeymoon tickets will be coming soon, as soon as the preists RSVP we can do our programs. These will take awhile. I think I might be making a trip to Duluth to get some help with them. For all of you who volunteered thinking I wouldn't actually come up to Duluth to get help, think again. You're not getting out of this one.
Josh is working on writing vows, hopefully he won't put this off until the night before.... Well I already told him I have total veto power, I get to see the final copy to add my own opinion. If worst comes to worst, we will just stick with the traditional ones.
Well I suppose I should get back to something related to the wedding. Or maybe I'll just take the night off. Wouldn't that be a nice change of pace.
