Tonight we had our pre-wedding photo session with our photographer Nicky with Mint. She is fun and we are so looking forward to working with her! We're even more excited to see the pictures from tonight's shoot. I wore fake eyelashes that I put on myself. And I hadn't tried any practice runs. It was a bit scary but I didn't get anything stuck together that wasn't supposed to be there, so it all turned out ok. I was able to get some good advice from my buddy David. 20-something years ago he taught me how to apply liquid eyeliner, and now he steps me through fake eyelashes. THAT is a good friend to have! :)
It almost feels that we have more things to do now than we did - but it's just because all the decisions really have to be made! I go for my dress alterations tomorrow which means I have to make the commitment to the shoes that I purchased a few months ago. This means that during the ceremony I will likely tower over Kandi, the heels are high, but she said she's ok with that for a few hours.
We need to make the programs. And while we plan on DIYing those, and have bought some of the materials we haven't finalized a few of the things that would be going into the program so of course that has to happen first!
We need to finalize the layout of the reception space, but to do that we need to know how many tables we will need and for that everyone needs to RSVP (cough, hint, cough). And we have to finalize the layout so we can make sure we get the right rentals which we need to get pretty quickly. And of course, we need the RSVP's to get to the caterer - but everyone knows that, right? (hint, rsvp, hint)
And then there are the decisions like hair and make up, undergarments (oh my!), transportation, accessories, song lists, and all the other tiny little details that go into making the big day awesome. When exactly are we suppose to have time to do laundry? Or get the house ready for all the out of town guest?
We know it will all work itself out somewhere, but my goodness it keeps us busy!
