I am counting down the days now until I get married. Many of you know the drama planning this wedding has been. We've been through our ups & downs. I think we've endured far too many obstacles but we've survived & we're now on the last leg before we take the plunge. We got our marriage license this morning so that has me excited. I have the dress hanging over my closet at home. My shoes are ready & waiting as well as my tiara & I've yet to see my veil b/c a cousin of Mike's is making it for me. I still need to get my bridal underwear & garter but that should be relatively easy.
I have to go today & plan the final menu as well as pay the remaining balance on the wedding.
We will be serving the following food at the wedding:
New Orleans Spicy Andouille Sausage
Grilled Rosemary-Lemon Chicken
Bow Tie Pasta w/diced tomato, olive oil, basil, & fresh parmesan cheese
Green Beans Almondine
Salad w/Raspberry Vinaigrette dressing
Rolls
Open Bar
Coffee station
I finally found an outfit for my mom that both she & I can agree on. It's a black & silver satin pant suit. It's perfect. Mike's mom will be wearing a black and silver dress so they both coordinate. I still need to get gifts for my bridesmaids but I don't know what to get them. Oy. It feels like there's still so much to do & time is running out. I did get some good news. One of my flower girls lives in Georgia & we were afraid she would be unable to attend but she will be here for the wedding.
I'll update the progress since I'm getting close.
