What am I missing?
Sounds like you've thought of everything! I cannot wait to "share" in your special day!! :0)
ReplyDeleteListen to you - so organized! :) I am sure it feels like you are leaving something out (man, I always felt that way) but if it's important then it will come to you! :)
ReplyDeleteI don't remember if this was on the list or not, but have you already picked out the readings and songs/music for the ceremony? That was one of my favorite parts!!! I'd love to know what you chose!
And I don't see your e-mail address posted anywhere, but mine is posted on my blog - would you mind shooting me an e-mail so I have yours when you get the chance? Thanks girly! :)
