I thought I would show photos of my day. I will keep posting them on this thread. It was the best day EVER! There were a lot of things I would change, but I'm still married to my man and that truly is the only thing that matters at this point. First...we got ready.

Two more hours left on the clock then I am off to finish up everything and get hitched on Saturday!!!! Today has been a MUCH better day than yesterday (whoa boy!) and I'm really glad for it. As soon as I walked in at 7AM, I was given a card signed by seven coworkers that had a very generous amount of money in it. Which naturally led to ugly faced crying and mascara everywhere. Then a few hours later I had a delivery from some coworkers in our NY office! They also sent a card  and a gift card. I've never even met them in person!! :)  I was just so touched by the thoughtfulness of my coworkers. Butu not only that, I'm just much more calm and ready for whatever gets thrown at me. It wouldn't be a wedding if it went perfectly, now would it? ;) I'm going to be soooo busy the next couple of days and probably won't make it on WB much before the wedding. I'll definitely have to try to make time. I need my fix, ya'll!!

Happy thanksgiving everyone.  I hope yours and was better than mine.   First of all, my uncle told me tonight that I need to make room for a close family friend.  Uhh, dont' know if I can do that. I told my caterer the exact table numbers on Wednesday. Found out that one of my bridesmaids, thinks she has strep and will be going to to doctors tomorrrow to see if she has it.  Oh, now she is unsure if she can make it to the rehearsal tomorrow.  Oh, if she has strep, she doesnt want to get everyone sick so she wont' be able to go to the wedding. Oh, she is also a reader for my ceremony.  Luckily, I asked someone that I had as a back up tonight and she said she can do it. (Thank you!) I told all of my bridesmaids that I am renting a room so that we could have a sleepover the day before the wedding.  I asked everyone that I will need help assembling place cards, foldig programs, doing last minute stuff.  My sister, the girl that is now sick and one other BM said they were interested.  I have 8 bridesmaids and only 3 can do it... or only 3 offered to do it?  I'm not even telling them they have to stay for the sleep over, just to come over and help when they can. Anyway, now my sister doesn't know if she can come... the bridesmaid who is sick probably won't go.  So now I have only 1 bridesmaid that can help me.  Really? I'm about to go insane. I have to admit, my bridesmaids really haven't done anything.  I didn't have a shower. A few of my BM were planning it but it fell through.  I haven't really asked them of much besides doing the usual, like they have to pay for their dress and alterations. I planned this wedding from across the country so I couldn't delegate any tasks because most of the BM were out of the state too.  But I figured that they would all come rushing to my side when I asked for it like the week before the wedding. I am really doubting the bridesmaids that I chose.  yes, i understand that it is a holiday weekend and they are busy with their famiy but can't i ask for some type of help. 5 min, 10, 30 min... anything.  Maybe I'm pissed because I feel like a loser that only 2 of my bridesmaids were able to come out to my bachlorette party.  Yes, some had plans, some couldn't make it, most are out of town.  Even the friends that are not my bm weren't able to make it besides the one girl who is now a reader for me.  She is the one person I am so thankful for today. I have a to do list that is long considering I have the rehearsal tomorrow and the luncheon afterwards.. I need help from my bridesmaids and none are helping. I really wanted to get together with them, since some just came into town.  To relax and to get them all on the same page. I don't think that's going to happen.  I have some non-bm friends that I can ask.  But it sucks that my BM aren't helping me out when i need it. :( stressed, angry with myself, overwhelmed, depressed.

you're really having a hard time thinking about anything else but your wedding?  I'm really trying to shake this off and work on work at work...but no. *raises hand high into the air with teacher's pet flair*

Less than a week away now.  I can't believe it's so close, and I'm feeling so calm.  People are shocked when they ask me if I'm nervous, and I'm really not.  Anyone else feeling like it's surreal right now?

yamfries on "November Brides-where are you honeymooning??"

Just wanted to get an idea of where everyone is going on their honeymoon.  We have a couple of places in mind but haven't really settled on one yet.  My guy is sun-sensitive, so a beach location (with nothing but sun-bathing and water sports) might not be ideal. Our ideas so far... 1- Paris, France-might be too cold? 2-Greece- heard some of the island might be closed during Nov/Dec. Please list where you are honeymooning...would love some ideas.  Thanks.

Ok. So after months of wedding planning crazy and a few days of not being able to think about anything but the wedding, i've now hit Wedding Planning Fatigue. I've still got quite a few things to do but all my energy has gone away. I want it to magically pull itself together... oy... i can't wait to post a post-wedding update with pics :D
