Can you even believe it? As of tomorrow, we will be down to SINGLE DIGITS. I have been on a rollercoaster of emotions, just panicked last week. This week, as I accomplish more and free up more time to spent with the amazing man I will marry, I am beginning to calm down and get a better handle on myself. I had my mom come to visit this Sunday (I am an out of town bride – 4 hours!) and we practiced getting my dress on and bustling it. SO EXCITED!!!
What things are you looking forward to most about your wedding? I can’t wait to wear my orange shoes (I’ve been practicing at work) and to finally be in my dress! Fiance will be so surprised! I am also pretty pumped for our entrance – we finally decided on You Shook Me by AC/DC (totally the opposite of what people will expect since bridal party is walking into Chris Brown, Forever…but fits us well!)

So exciting!!!! I love your shoes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I cant wait for him to see me in my dress! By far the biggest purchase I have made in the last 5 years with out his input so I cant wait to see what he thinks.
Everything is coming so fast now. I cant wait for there to be no more planning and just live it out and then set off for the honeymoon!!!!
9 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cannot wait! It is such an exciting time right now being so close!
I am definitely looking forward to rocking my dress, Mr. WonderTwin surprising his parents with his shoe choice (there’s a story there), and just finally being married to each other. My last day of work before the wedding is Friday! Then off until November!
We still haven’t planned the honeymoon, though, so we do have 1 spot of stress left.

I am so excited to be with my girls. They live all over the place, and just to see everyone. Also- to get all dolled up!
Moving this coming weekend, so trying to hurry and get this packing thing over so I can focus on the wedding. Tuesday is my last day at work forever….agh! Scary but so ready to find a job I love!

@chittychittybanebane: Jealous! Leaving my current job and moving into our own place are two things I had really hoped we could do before the wedding. But Mr. WonderTwin is still looking for FT work so we’re still living with a roommate.
My girls are also all over the place! Hooray for the girls!

@WonderTwin: yea, we bought our house a few months ago and have been in renovating mode. Completely tore up everything! We just hired a contractor to finish it all before we come home, because we think it would be worth coming home from Jamaica with a complete kitchen and bath! We are excited…been long distance since the day we met…ready to have our own place!
boo on the roommate..but it does help save money and it will all be worth it in the end!

@chittychittybanebane: oh la la…a renovated bathroom and kitchen sounds lovely… we are still waiting to buy a home because the wedding took up all of our savings/time! You will LOVE coming home to each other every day, it is the best feeling to know that someone’s waiting for you & vice versa.

@Masala: Look at you on top of everything!! I have some boxes left to check, but they are last minute stuff… did I mail out my itinerary, did the groomsmen pick up tuxes, etc. It feels nice to see that list get smaller and smaller 🙂
