11 days - 279 hours

Gah! It just keeps getting closer and there's nothing like a countdown timer to reinforce the feeling! That is a good thing, I'm looking forward to it. I just wish everything else would stop and wait for two weeks!

Had a lovely hens weekend. Nothing too wild, just some good food, good drinks and good friends. Heard all about A's bucks (or what he could remember) - I think there's meant to be rules about not sharing stories but they've never applied in this household so no reason they should start now!

Possibly even more excitingly A came home without a suit/shirt/tie but with one being altered in Melbourne and all the other bits and pieces being held ready to pick up this coming weekend! It's grey with a bluey pinstrip I think, from the dodgy mobile phone photo. Whatever, it looked great on him and his two groomsmen so ....woo hoo! Who said you needed to be organised about these things?

So, the list looks a bit better after the weekend. I still haven't done that marking though!

  • Finalize seating
  • Work out what flowers and how many to order - tick (sort of, the lady I need to order from is on hols for a couple of days but I have worked out what I need to order). Three minds are definately better than one when doing these things!
  • Get A a suit. Yes, you read that right. He still does not have a suit! - tick!
  • Buy bridesmaid gifts - any ideas people? - half tick, sale at the jewelers tomorrow. I will be there!
  • Finalize music
  • Finalize ceremony
  • Get A to organise transport for beer - tick!
  • Email a trillion people
  • Pay photographer + venue
  • Hire umbrellas (just in case)
  • Work out what is going on top of the cake - tick!
  • Do something about a guest book - half tick - have worked it out, just have to do it
  • Buy parents presents - again, any ideas?
