Here are some of the engagement photos from the session Nick and I did last week:

Stressed...to the max!!
That is how I feel right now. There are only two more days until the wedding day, and I am freaking out. Nick and I have so much to do still: favors, menus, finalizing the music playlists...so much for last Friday's deadline. On top of all of that, I have master's classes work that I am trying to finish up. I like a crunch, but this is almost too much. You aren't supposed to wake up sick to your stomach every day the week of your wedding, are you?
Tonight is going to be a long one...I can already tell.

Bachelorette Party
So last Friday night we went out for my bachelorette party. I had planned for us all to go see one of my favorite bands, Rooney, play at the House of Blues on Sunset. We had an absolutely fabulous time, and what made it even more fabulous was the fact that Jeffrey Jones, who played Mr. Rooney in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," actually introduced them. It was classic.
One of my friends managed to get us tickets to the Foundation Room afterwards, so we went upstairs. My sister had bought us posters so we could meet Rooney, but me (being the doofus I am), just had to get a picture with them. I had the valet take me back to my car to get my camera. However, the nasty security guard at the HOB then announced that he would be kicking people with cameras out. So my sis and I left and met my friends back up in the Foundation Room. We stayed up there so long that by the time we left it was to late to get into the Standard. I was bummed a bit because I had wanted to go dancing. And I was wearing my best "Carrie Bradshaw" dress. However, we did catch someone on the way out that saved the night: Robert Schwartzman, lead singer of Rooney. He was on the phone, and I felt like an ass interrupting. But he stopped to take a photo with me. He was such a doll!
I had the best night. My little sister truly made me happy and didn't let me down. And my friend Kristine demonstrated what a true friend is. And Sarah...she came down after having been in an accident!

Emotional Disaster...
That image pretty much sums up how I feel at this point about the wedding. I just want to run. Everything has gotten to be too much. I used to laugh at brides freaking out or seriously contemplate their mental stability. "How could someone panic over something so seemingly trivial? It's just a wedding!"
I totally understand now.
There is still SO much left to do on top of all of the work I need to finish up for my master's classes. I hate that we have summer classes. The timing is just wrong. Thank goodness I am not teaching summer school this year...I'd probably be in a catatonic state.
My make-up trial run went horribly wrong yesterday. I looked like a clown. Thus, I'm off to get more make-up tomorrow so I can attempt to do mine for the wedding. I get so upset thinking about it still...she even took my own mascara!!
Oh well, we're off to shoot our engagement photos tonight. Hopefully, they won't turn out too dreadful. I think it's hilarious that we are doing them this late to begin with.
Ciao now!

Less than a month...?
What...the...heck?!
How did it get to the point where I am less than a moth away from my wedding? I have so many projects to do, and so little time. But that is me, Ms. Procrastinator. And I love the crunch...though I have given myself a deadline: everything has to be done by July 25th. I know that quite a few people don't believe I can get it done, but I know I can.
Anyhoo, I wish I had started this blog a bit earlier. I love the idea of being able to post my ideas for the wedding here. It might have helped me keep track of things a bit better. ::sigh:: Wishful thinking and I.
Tomorrow....I am set to start a project. A project a day I say shall get accomplished. Don't believe me? Watch me.
BTW, who likes this idea for our arch? I don't want it directed all phoo-phooey with flowers. What do you say?
