Less than one month

Seriously....less than one month until I will be MARRIED!!! I am excited and totally overwhelmed. All the little details are starting to add up...oh and did I mention

MY DRESS IS STILL NOT HERE!

They said they shipped it yesterday...and maybe I will have it by friday. That about made me cry...not the sad feel bad for me make it happen faster kind of cry but the oh my gosh this is not happening to me and I really cannot handle one more thing...not one more kind of cry. I mean really how hard is it to get a dang dress, put it in a box and have it arrive here at the time you said it would. This was just the cherry on top of an already strange wedding details week filled with flowers and table linens and decorations and honestly I am about over the whole thing. I want to tell someone else to take over and just make it happen and I promise I will not complain about a thing, just get Ryan and I there with the license and I will be thrilled but if you ask me one more time what color the napkins should be and how many tables and what type of salad dressing I might just explode. Someone please remind me why I did not hire the coordinator? I know she would have cost about 1/3 of the budget but right now I wish she was here sitting next to me with a big grin and a cup of hot chocolate saying "everything is done and your dress is in your closet" oh...wouldn't that be lovely. Instead I am here making appt's for nails and praying as hard as I can that my dress arrives in one piece, that it fits and that I only have to have the bussle done. It may sound shallow and I can hear my pastor saying "don't you think God has better things to worry about" and to him I say NO...because right now this is the heaviest thing on my heart and I think that makes it improtant to God...and then I would stick out my tongue and him and turn and run! I may become the worst bride out there and to all of my family and friends I appologize now for anything I may do or say in the next 4 weeks that will sound completely irrational or spoiled or ossessive...I am pretty sure I will not be able to stop myself. And Ryan thank you for loving me enought to go through this with me...on that note " have you gotten the engagement pictures selected yet?".


Here I go...HELP!!!!!!!!

One deep breath....

Ahhhhh,
I have heard worse....I think that I did worse....It is all going to be just what you want when the day gets there.

You will be beautiful and I bet the dress is there even as I write.

Best wishes Katie!
 
Oh lovely Kate...I remember these feelings oh so well. And I seem to remember a wonderful bridesmaid of mine telling me that in the end all that mattered was me and mike and the pastor and God. And, your wedding does matter to God. Every detail matters to Him. Everything will be perfec;, even if it's not, you won't know about it. And afterwards you will say, "Let's do that again!!!" And everyone will roll their eyes at you...(speaking from experience- I said the same thing after having a baby)

Cannot wait to see pictures of you in your beeoooteeful dress. I will pray that every last detail comes together. My words of advice: take half a sleeping pill the night before your wedding; it will relax you enough to fall asleep, but you won't feel groggy in the morning.

Love you beautiful bride!
