    How excited are you?

    I am literally shitting my pants. I cannot believe that in one month I will be getting married! And there's still so much to do.

    Are you guys stressed/nervous at all? Or are things pretty much under control?

    Haha I feel the same way - on top of wedding stuff I have finals, finding a new job, moving, and I honestly can't wait until we are married and things can be sort of normal (besides looking for a job and unpacking).

    They're all little things, but yes - and I feel as though the little things are the most stressful.

    I took a calendar and planned everything out so I'm hoping that helps but I'm worried that once my family starts arriving I will be so distracted I might fall behind :S

    And I know - it's crazy! My cousin just got married and it feels like only yesterday she posted "21 days"... It's just going to fly by!

    What are you going to do about people who have not RSVPed, are you going to call and ask if they are coming? I am trying to decide what to do

    @kfraztobe: For the people that have not RSVP'ed, I called them Last week and confirmed with them. I also had my mother call and tell them that if they don't respond by this week, I will assume they are declining. I will not fret over this!!!! LOL

    I haven't even started confronting non-RSVP'ers. Most of them are my parents friends, and I am not going to take on that stress. Once I'm done exams I'm handing my parents a list, and saying that if I don't get answers by such a date then they're not coming.

    @kfraztobe: I plan on making a 'second' RSVP date, and if they don't give me a definite answer by then, then they just aren't coming. We have a few non-replyers who are family members of FMIL, and she just keeps saying "We won't know". Well sorry, but you have to know.

    If I care about you, then I'll cut you some slack, but if I've never met you then I honestly don't care.

    This board has been really quiet! Are all the other September brides huddled in the corner wishing this will all go away? :D

    The rest of us are going crazy running in circles! Just kidding, but really, Sept 3rd has kind of snuck up really quickly! I have to do lists and am almost done crossing things off. I want the week of to be as hassle free as possible.

    As far as RSVP's go anyone who didn't RSVP on his side I sent to his Mom to call, the ones on my side to my Dad and our friends we talked to ourselves. We have responses now from almost everyone and those we don't we are considering as no's since we've tried to confirm multiple times with them now. So sorry if they show up, they will have to kill some time between ceremony and the dance- McDonald's is just down the road :)

    Hey September 3rd girls.  Well I dont know about you all but "bride brain" has kicked in for me.  My friend told me that it gets to a point where you forget things and you cant make decisions.  Speaking of forgetting, I forgot about center pieces, not entirely but I forgot to get the vases for them.  I met with my DJ the other day to go over songs... poor guy kept asking me questions and I was pretty dead. But we got answers from everyone well mostly everyone we still have a few people who are like uhh i dont know yet. Which is lame. I might not do a seating chart because of that, except for reserved tables for family. How are you all this week? any big plans?

    We're taking a 3-day honeymoon at the beach about 2 hours away, then returning home to move into our new house! Beach + honeymoon at home, sounds lame in writing but I'm super excited about it.
