I'm a bad bride...
2:34 PM, Thursday, 17 May, 2007
I was feeling girly yesterday, so I bought a wedding magazine*. There was a wee little book inside it, the "Wedding Planning Workbook". It's got a timeline approaching the Big Day, with all the things that we should have already done.
Apparently at this stage, with 72 sleeps before we get hitched I should already have:
Ordered flowers.
Bought wedding rings.
Had makeup and hair trials.
Ordered Cake.
Booked photographer.
Booked music.
Booked celebrant.
Planned dream honeymoon.
Handmade unique and individual bonbonnieres.
Lost 29.8 kilos.
Had facelift.
Toned arse.
Had boob enhancement.
Had laser surgery.
Removed all hair below eyebrows with laser.
Timetabled event to the millisecond.
Organised contingency plan.
Coordinated "MotherOfBride" and "MotherOfGroom" outfits, preferably to match the flowers.
Edited all speeches.
Hmmm. So far we have booked the venue, told a few people, ordered the invitations, bought 46.3 meters of fabric for The Outfit.
Shit.
*I have now put away the wedding magazine, and I'm pretending that none of this ever happened.

Instead of wedding magazines use the Phil and Lexi technique - cruise along and know that it will all work on the day. However please make sure that you do not leave your mother with the task of organising a wedding cake 4 days before the event! (Lexi is still adamant that she could have baked and iced the cakes on the morning of the wedding) Booking a photographer 2 weeks before was also a bit nerve wracking.

Alternatively you could get Allira onto it - she makes lists and is fantastic at orgainising things.

You're right, Sabine! I need to find Allira. Or get my arse into gear. Either one!
