(Slightly less than) a year to go

We're down to the wire. You know the one, where all the magazines and websites start giving you a timeline of what you need to accomplish to make your big day a successful event.
It's a little sressful thinking that we actually have less than a year left to plan (only by two weeks, but still..). Sometimes it seems like nothing is ever going to come together, and other times it seems like it will all just fall into place. Or maybe that's just my wishful thinking. lol.
While visiting my sister last week, we got 8 of the candle holders wrapped in cloth and glued. We still have to add the ribbon, but that's not something I'm too worried about. Thats the easy part. We still have to decide how many tables we are going to need so I can figure out how many candle holders we are going to need, and then make sure that we have enough fabric to cover all of them!
I think thats the hardest part of plannign a DIY wedding. All of the decorations you make yourself. I mean, you enlist the wedding party and any friends that are willing to help to help tackle certain tasks, but the bride still does a lot of the work... and while trying to get decorations figured out and finished, there are a bunch of other things to worry about as well! I will definatly admit that I would love to have a wedding planner right about now. That way, everything in mine and Matt's vison gets accomplished and we have to do minimal work to get there. Only problem is that relaxation comes at a price, and we most definatly can't afford that price. We're just trying to figure out how we're going to afford the price of a simple wedding that we mostly put together outselves. lol. All in all, it seems to be coming together though. Maybe not as efficently as I would like, but coming together anyway.
Besides, how can I complain too much? I have my perfect dress. lol
Well, I'm going to try to get some sleep tonight.
So until next time, have a great day, week, and possibly month!
