1 Month to Go…and Licensed to Wed!
Only one month to go until our wedding day! I don’t even know what to say…we thought the last 18 months would take forever to go by, but with everything going on, the time flew by so quickly!
With one month to go, we decided it would be a good day to get our marriage license. So we filled out the application, took an oath, handed over $75, and voila! We are now licensed to marry! How…official!
We’ve spent the last few weeks doing quite a bit of wedding preparation. We went cake tasting (yummy!), had a meeting with our wedding coordinator, booked 2 of 3 of our Italian hotels, picked out our ceremony music, ordered our ceremony programs…oh, and finally picked out centerpieces. Phew! Surprisingly, the centerpieces were the most difficult part of this whole process. I was crazed and, in turn, made Frank crazy. Glad we finally got this part taken care of! I know Frank is beyond relieved.
Last week, my mom came up to go to one of my wedding dress fittings. I got to try on my dress again, and the seamstress showed her how to bustle it up. Fun stuff! We also went to get my Chinese wedding gown made. My mom bought the fabric in Hong Kong the last time she was there and we brought it to a local seamstress (thanks to Katie for the reference!) so we could talk about the style and get me measured. I get to pick it up next week! I’m so excited to see it!
Next up on the to-do list: booking our last hotel, getting Frank’s wedding ring sized and engraved, and picking out all of our wedding reception music.
There’s probably other stuff that I’m forgetting about, but I’ll remember at the most random of times and add it to my list! Hopefully…
