Wowzers!

18 months ago I never could imagine my wedding day being so close.  Now here we are 1 month away.  I absolutely cannot believe it.  I am still a lot calmer than I thought I would be.  We have some invitations that still need to be done, so what.  We still do not have programs, and if they do not get done this weekend, we just won't have programs.  So may people drive themselves crazy over elaborate "perfect" weddings and dwell on the little details until they cannot even enjoy the day.  I made a vow to Scotty and myself long ago that I would not let this wedding become more important than us.  In this very moment I can proudly say that I feel that I have lived up to my vow.  Now have I gotten a little obsessive and freaked out from time to time? Of course.  But at the end of the day when I walk down that aisle Scotty will be there and we will leave as husband and wife.  Will our vows become obsolete if the color of the chair ties do not perfectly match the table toppers?  Didn't think so.  It baffles me at how much perspective people lose on such a big day.  I have seen a wedding that cost less than $700 with two people madly in love.  We have all seen the tragic ending to the $10million Kardashian Fiasco.  On December 17th as everyone pulls away I don't care if everyone liked how we did things, or if they preferred our decorating styles.  If the food and music choices were odd.  If our sequence didn't make sense.  I want them to walk away thinking... HMM those two really love each other and this day was absolutely about them.
