Activity for April

Taking the signed marriage license down to the clerk's office today so that big ol ceremony won't be for naught. I intend to wait to change my name with the SSA and work and DMV until after the honeymoon at the end of June Yay weddings!

I've been lurking on WW, although not actively posting until more recently, for over a year, since I got engaged May of LAST year. I've learned so, so much here, and gotten plenty of ideas (card boxes, who knew!) and enjoyed having a place to vent...

Are there any here? This date has been hard for me for the last 16 years. I feel like society doesn't want us to talk about it, and therefore doesn't know how many babies are adopted out because their mothers DO love them and want the best for them....

Background: I was with my ex bf almost 5 years before he broke up with me because it "wouldn't be fair" to me because he "never wanted to get married again" which I could tell was a crap excuse. His family said it, and after being out of it for...

That's right, my wedding day! May 25, 77 and partly cloudy, chance of rain 20%. Not bad. Of course in Southern Indiana that could mean 20 degrees and a blizzard, but here's hoping

2 weeks to go, and what do we have left still? Me: This weekend, getting the final decorations we're borrowing for the ceremony and doing a trial setup at my MOH's house, where it will be. Also having our last date as a non-married couple tonight....

And lots of stuff. I really did think I was gonna skate thru with a minimum of stress. We've borrowed or been gifted almost all of our decorations and services, thank God. Anyway I posted awhile back about how we'd asked my bridesmaid's FI to be a...

Yes I probably should have been taking care of this before now, but we have to have a permit from the excise police to serve beer and wine at the reception. I have to fill out an application, have the sheriff or chief of police sign it, have the...

So yesterday I joined the cool crowd of left-handers (carpal tunnel surgery on right hand) and its hard! Anyway my last dress fitting/ alteration appt is on Saturday. My matron of honor is gonna have to get pretty intimate with me trying to get that...

All my fiance knows about today is that he gets to hang out with all the kids because I'll be gone all day working on a secret project for his wedding day gift . What I'm doing is going to see my hairdresser and getting dolled up and taking pictures...

Wedding on 5-25. So far almost no glitches. really thought we might get lucky without having any. but...My bridesmaid's fiance was asked to be a GM in the interest of symmetry (I know!) and because we like him alot. Today I found out they broke up I...

Our wedding is outside. We'll have to walk through a gravel driveway and then some grass. What do people use as aisle runners?

I'm actually a little excited about it (plus having hair and make up trial in the morning). But also nervous, because I hate people looking at me lol (I know what am I thinking being a bride). Plus the idea of a gift-giving party for me feels...
