No worries...you are definitely not behind. You actually have a lot done. Great for you!! And you have a lot more done than I do...Now I'm feeling like I'M really behind!! Ahhh!

So I'm going home for Christmas tomorrow and have my first fitting... I'm a little nervous and excited at the same time. I finally bought my shoes. I'm hoping to finalize my invitation choices, register, check out a sample of my bouquet that my florist is whipping up for me, and meet with the minister. Hopefully by the time I get back in a week I'll be able to check all those things off my list.

Things are moving for me too ladies !

 

This week-end we're off to our site visit... we'll pick up the menu, decide on the drinks options, the sunday options (brunch or BBQ ?), meet with the photographer. Unfortunately the wedding planner that I would like to hire is not threr - she went back to Switzerland for Christmas so I won't meet with her. We will also check out the honeymoon options

 

E-vites are gone, website is done - in French and English - although not finished there's enough for people to plan their trip... I got my band, his band, my dress got in (early) so first fitting will probably be... soon. Got my shoes, the BMs dresses are picked (but not yet ordered, size discussion as they cannot try them on...), the bouquets are being made...

 

Now I have to take care of the groom, the groomsman and bestwoman, the flowergirl, and... er... booking our flights !!! Formal invites, OOT bags, prenup, cameras, fans, music and playlists, program, centerpieces, cake. What do I forget ? I'm not good at this...

I finally booked our photographer and AHR location. And I started designing our AHR invites. There's still so much left to do though!

OMG I'm so excited.

 

Let me give you girls some background story first!

 

So when we first where engaged, the FI had a ring designed for me. I love my Ering, but I really wanted matching bands. So through the past few years we couldn't find anything that we both liked.

 

Fast forward to this past May, in St Thomas. We found beautiful matching wedding bands that we got an unbelievable deal on. So at this point I decided that I wasn't going to wear my Ering after the wedding, I would just wear a wedding band.

 

Fast forward a little more down the road. I decide I want to get my actual diamond reset to a setting I can wear with my wedding band.

 

All I want for Christmas is my new Ering setting. Well we went and picked it out on Sunday and I picked it up today!!! I can't stop staring at it. It's like getting engaged all over again!!!

 

I can't get a good pic with my shitty camera, once I get a good one with my moms over the holidays I'll post a pic, I'm so freaking excited!!!
