Am i going crazy?


This Friday there will only be six more weeks left for planning our wedding….!! I feel like I’m starting to go crazy! Last week I think there was something wrong with everything that I was planning,well trying to plan! Dates were being changed, pictures weren't right, announcements were printed on the wrong paper..  I’m to the point where I feel like I have to do everything to make sure there are no mistakes… OCD... Just a little bit! ah ha.... please tell me this is normal! It will be here before I know it, I still have much to do… right now I’m working on finding a wish tree... I’m looking for Manzanita branches, I’ve looked online, don’t care much for buying things I can physically touch… Anyways that’s my main focus right now! 

i really like this one! when people come in they can sign our guest book and write you a "wish" hence the name of the tree... the directions can say...
We invite you to send a special wish to the
Bride and Groom
as they begin their life together 
and hang it on their wish tree.
     Need some inspiration? 
    words of wishes 
    marriage advice 
    memories of your wedding 
    draw a picture
    Have fun and don't forget to sign your name!

    OR
    These cards will be
    for our wedding book
    a modern twist
    on the standard look.


    As we begin our Journey
    As the brand new Mr. and Mrs.Ridley
    We could surely use 
    Your good Wishes.

    Jot down a Memory,
    A reminder of the day.
    Draw a doodle or picture

    If your not sure what to say....


    Share with us your Wisdom
    About Marriage, Love, and Life,
    The secret to being a good Husband
    Or a thoughtful, loving Wife.


    Please don't forget
    It would be such a shame
    to hang your card on the tree
    Without signing your Name.

    i think they are both cute and informal.....

    Center Pieces

    i finally got my large center pieces out of the way!  Still working on what is going to go in the middle of the tables besides candles.. thinking of a flower ball,, but a rectangle, it seems that they don't make rectangular plastic liners.. so if anyone knows where i could get some let me know! oh anyone have a lemon tree..? i need about 150 lemons, who knew they were 87 cents each! Here is a sample center piece my mom and i did:) they are about 41/2 feet tall!
     Were getting ready to send out our announcements, hoping by next week! time has gone by fast! Still so much to do, kinda makes me crazy...On the flip side my sisters and mom are Preparing for the bridal shower.. what should i wear.. cute huh.. ??
