Wedding Whirl


It's a mere 5 days before W-day. I sent out a slew of emails at church this morning, trying to line everything and everyone up for the next week and informing them that I'll be Mother-of-the-Brideing it the rest of the week.

There are sparklers, monogramed matchbooks, wedding guest registers, toasting flutes and other stuff to round up. There are out of town guests arriving beginning the day after tomorrow. There are wedding programs and favors to be tied up with silver ribbons. There are inflatable mattresses to be blown up, airport pickups to be coordinated and...what have I missed?

I plan to enjoy every minute of it! So if there aren't very many posts this week, you'll know why.

Faithfully yours,
QG, MOB

Good Luck. I know my wedding was a 100 hour nightmare. Hope your daughters goes swimmingly.

You have a GREAT time!

Um, be sure to tell the people to hold the sparklers AWAY from their clothes. And not right up next to the brideangroom, either! I made teeny holes in my go-to-a-wedding dress one time with sparklers. But it was FUN!

Hugs to EVERYONE! Happy Wedding!

All will be well, all will be well.

Enjoy the laughter and the tears, the excitement and the (few) quiet special moments. I'm with spooky rach - take a big nap when it's all done...

....and then post and tell us all about it!

BTW, does Gretel the noble dog have a role in the big event?

Blessings and lots of fun-filled moments - during the frantic last minute preparations and also at the wedding itself. You will look stunning :) because you are!

Hi QG
The only thing you missed is sitting back with a tall refreshing glass of your favorite and looking through the baby pictures, the school pictures, the high school pictures and having a good private laugh and cry. Then enjoy every single minute of the day.
Blessings,

dum - dum - dum dum. dum - dum - dum dum.

By the way, if you say the above just right you get the meaning (the wedding march) otherwise you might think I'm just calling you a dum-dum.

Of course I would never do that :)

Congrats. I know you've been looking forward to this for a while. Enjoy every minute.
