We're all busy little bees, full of strings, making honey
day and night, aren't we honey?" – Bette Davis
With 63 days to go (eeeek!), things have been very busy. In the
last few weeks I have had 3 bridal teas, luncheons and brunches and each one
has been filled with love and anticipation for the wedding. We have also
sent out our invites, hired wedding planner Melissa Samborksi, from One Fine
Day Events, seen our sample centrepieces, chosen our menu and started thinking
about our hotel gift bags. We have been busy to say the least. And
believe it or not, I also have a full time job.
I originally wrote that we were going ahead with our plans without a
planner but have recently had a change in heart. After meeting with
Melissa, I realize that she will be undertaking all of the little details that
most people don’t know even go into that day. She has guaranteed us that on our
wedding day she will take care of every detail you could think of and nothing
will fall on my, or my father’s, shoulders. There are so many unknowns on
your big day and as organized and prepared as I am, I happy to know that I
will have a professional by my side making sure my visions are executed the
exact way I dreamt them to. I was so happy to connect with Melissa and
trust that she will add so much to this process.
Once the invites were sent out, everything felt real. To me, it
means that we are in the home stretch. When I got a phone call last Friday that
my best friend and grandmother received theirs, I was overjoyed. It has
been so special to hear from different people and hear their excitement leading
up to our big day. As of yesterday, we had already received 10 reply
cards and couldn’t be more excited.
Next up is our menu tasting (can’t wait!!), my first dress fitting,
choosing our tables, booking our honeymoon, getting the marriage license, dance
lessons and much, much more.
I’m counting down the days, and hoping I get everything done!
Also, hoping Mr. X had a weekend to remember with his boys!
Yours truly,
A
