2 weeks or 14 days or <323 hours

May 30th, 2008

Wow, I can’t believe time has flown by like it has. It doesn’t feel like that it was a year and a half ago that I was searching on the Christmas tree for something sweet and identifying all of the candy look-alike ornaments except the one I was supposed to. Nor does any of this feel real. I don’t know if it just hasn’t settled in. I still feel like the little girl saying someday I’ll be married. But that someday is coming up soon. A lot of friends and family have asked if I’m getting nervous or anxious, or even if I’m getting cold feet. I can’t say that I am; I suppose I’m just odd like that.

On other news wedding related:

  • Half of the ribbon tied to the bubbles, bought the other half of the ribbon.
  • Getting the finalized music list so we can finish designing the programs.
  • Have an awesome idea of how to give the programs and fans (thanks Dustin for the help).
  • Everything’s booked. Everyone’s measured. Everything fits (we assume the tuxes will, won’t know until 2 days before).
  • Packets have been prepared for out of town guests, just need to be mailed.

I think we’re just about done with everything that we need to be.

One month left

Ok, so the wedding is in ONE month! Wow! I can’t believe it’s almost here. In the meantime, today is also our RSVP deadline date and we only received about 58% of them back. I guess we’ll be making lots of phone calls this week to find out who is coming and who is not.

A side note about the RSVPs. It is interesting to note who knows what the “M_____” is for and who ignores it. For anyone who doesn’t know, the M is the beginning of Mr. or Mrs. or Miss or Ms. And if you invited a guest you should list their name there too so that place cards can be assigned. Just for future knowledge on anyone else’s RSVPs.

Anyway, just a short and sweet post about the disbelief of how soon Chase and I will be married. And how rude our society has come to not understand that if an RSVP is requested you should send it back in a timely manner with an acceptance or declination.
