The wait is almost up

Alexis, on September 5, 2019 at 11:44 AM Posted in Planning 0 11

Ahhhh where to start. We got engaged November 2018 and our wedding is in 9 days!! That's right NINE DAYS. It is so crazy to think that everything we planned is going to come to life in NINE days. Holy moly. So much has happened within the last 11 months.... Fiance got a lay off from work, found another job that was horrible in pay but, something is better than nothing. Then 3 months into that horrible job he FINALLY got his dream job that we had been working on. (I say we because I actually did the job application for him in April and turned in documentation of anything they needed) Hahaha. We are your true definition of a "team". Only down fall is he doesn't work in town. He is travelling ALOT. BUT his schedule is 8 days on/6 days off. So that makes up for him being gone. Thankfully his 6 days off falls on the wedding (Thank God because he is still in his probationary period and could get fired if he asks for any days off). Things have been stressful/hard/emotional. My bach party was an emotional roller coaster. I got emotional drunk- of course. Hahaha but, in just NINE days I will get to say "I do" to the love of my life and everything we have been through in 11 months will be like it didn't even happen at all. We are in such a good place right now and I have just totally been in bliss with life.

WW has been an amazing support through this process. All of my questions that WW family has helped with has been great!

Anyways, just had a moment. I hope anyone who is getting married this month, next month or hey even next year..... knows how much everything is worth it. Enjoy your day and the moment. It only happens once.

    How time flies! I am glad that things have worked out for you both, there always seems to be a lot of ups and downs along the way. I was looking at last year's calendar yesterday and saw that I had written 339 days last December and now we are at 64 days, we get married on November 9th and I can't even imagine how I will feel when we hit 9 days. CRAZY! No matter what it will be an amazing day and I look forward to seeing your pictures. Wishing you all the best.

    Hello date twins! Congrats and sending positive vibes Smiley sexy Loved reading this post, I definitely feel the same way. This year has been a roller coaster but it is about to settle down after this wedding is done.

    We have to finish up a few things (print photos for a display, wrap BM gifts, pack an overnight bag, clean rings, drop off decor, print seating chart, and attend the Bachelorette), but otherwise it should be smooth sailing. Smiley ring

    Aw yay. OMG now that I thought I was finished I still need to pay off vendors, get rings cleaned too, wrap gifts, and pack an overnight bag as well.

    Well, that was short lived... Thinking I was done Smiley xd

    Your day will be magical. Congrats and can't wait to see pics!
