Today was truly the first time I felt like I was running out of time. I needed to get CRACKING on my to-do list.
Before leaving to run errands, I had a snack. My fav! Yogurt + about 3/4 cup of Grape Nuts.
Then I got my eyebrows waxed, bought some fake eyelashes for myself and my bridal party (have you ever tried those? they are amaaaazing), picked up some necessities at Wal-Mart and the grocery store, and went to the gym.
I did a speedy 30 minutes on the elliptical. It’s getting to the point where any workout is a good workout! According to my HRM, I burned about 160 calories, so it was a decent workout.
Then, I organized all my wedding materials, which I’ll be passing off to my day-of-wedding coordinator tomorrow.
Programs…
Signature Drink signs…
Taxi info for the bar…
Candles…
Candle Holders…
More candles…
Even MORE candles…
Even MORE candle holders (do you sense a theme?!?!)
Placecards….
Table numbers…
Favors (blurry, I know!)…
Guest books (1 little one per table)…
AND MORE!! (I just realized how I blew the budget, LOL)
I had so much stuff that I knew I needed to organize it in a way that my coordinator could actually make sense out of. I bought three large tupperware containers and carefully packed my items…
And then I created handy guides to tell my vendors where to put each item (complete with photographs):
Ta-da! If you didn’t know I was a Type A organizational freakazoid before, you do now!! 🙂
At some point, I took a lunch break while juggling phone calls from my vendors.
I made Anne’s Organic White Cheddar Mac and Cheese. Delish! It is so tangy and yummy when you replace the milk with NF plain yogurt.
I also had some broccoli on the side.
I ate about 1/2 the box.
Back to work!!
Oh, and in regards to the conversation this morning on Fat Talk, if you haven’t seen this video yet, please watch it and share with your friends and family! I cry every time I watch this video… It is so powerful!
Fake eyelashes are the shiiit I use any excuse to glue them on my eyelids 😀 You are a wedding MANIAC!! Good luck, you are so on top of it and it’s gonna be so gorgeous!!
