Okay, sorry again for being a bad blogger. While I am a very routine person, this blog has still not been integrated into my day-to-day thinking. And sometimes I just don't know what is worth posting, what would be interesting, and I have a bit of angst towards the oversharing that exists on mediums like facebook...so I just don't.
Anyway, I have been so enthusiastic these last few days that I am compelled to get back into sharing mode. While the wedding has been a rather stressful undertaking for me -- all of the contracts and compromises and balancing act of thinking the wedding is a really big deal and also not a big deal (I mean, the marriage is a big deal, but not the wedding part so much in the larger scheme of things). In short - I've been a bit of a mess trying to wrap my head around it all.
That being said, I think that I am finally getting to a place of comfort where I can just enjoy things as they happen now. The venues are booked, the caterer is booked, I'm well on my way to booking the photographer, DJ and ceremony musicians, and I already bought my dress, sent out save the dates and created the wedding website. YIKES! It felt like as much work as it sounds like. hah.
But things have really fallen into place. While the wedding is more expensive than I would ever want one day to be, I have been within or under budget on every line item so far. That feels GREAT. And I'm finding that while I at first feared that the day would be weirdly foreign and uncomfortable (just by the nature of it being so unlike us to have some huge party and get dressed up, with everyone's eyes on us, etc.), I now feel that I am putting together a day that we will really take pleasure in and be able to enjoy as ourselves.
So, the excitement is back. Yay.
