26 days

The countdown continues but, honestly, 26 days seems like a long time and the to do list appears do-able to me, even with a 10 day jet out to Canada and all the painting/decorating of our new home thrown in there.

A lot goes into planning a wedding and I can't imagine doing it without the internet but people did. Isn't it funny, the things we can't imagine how we lived without but really are oh so recent, I wonder what wedding planning will be like when it's my daughters turn (if Andy and I ever even have daughters)

daughters is kind of a funny word if you say it over and over

So wedding planning on day 26 has gone as follows.......

cabin for me and bridesmaids for hen night...booked
groomsmen gifts...bought
jazz bands..contacted
dance floor hire......discovered is actually very expensive
pre order of flowers for pre wedding trial run....arranged
craft supplies for order of service.....purchased
chasing up people who haven't R.S.V.P'ed yet......done
pre wedding hair and makeup trials.......booked
table number card holders....purchased
goodies and toys to keep children occupied.....purchased
pretty chocolate brown wire butterflies....purchased
coffe, cake and chat with Mum.....enjoyed
grocery shopping at morrissons and negotiating that death hole of a car park....survived
place card/order of service/seating plan making....started
trying on of veil just because I can.......done....twice

all in all a pretty successful day, and it's only supper time,

Realization that my sister-in-law was actually made to shop and plan a wedding......complete!

Glad you got to spend some time with your mum over cake....I'm guessing the police siege is over then! Beth
