The same day we got engaged I already had flowers and cake ordered, I bought outfits for my flower girls, I called about marriage license and picked up the application, I found a dress. A dress that became very special to me, dress my sister in law gave me, but I had to get it altered. After about 10 phone calls I have found a lady who took the challenge to alter my dress in five days, and let me tell you she did a wonderful job. On day two I found us a minister who married us, and luckily my brother in law whose ordination ceremony was just days before that said that it would be his honor. On the third day, location was “locked in” and guests were invited and we had our first pre marriage counseling session. On day four foods was ordered and I started to get nervous. On day five I have purchased wedding band for my soon to be husband. On day six, the busiest one yet, because that’s where I was picking up my dress, and flowers. But the florist I have trusted to make my bouquets has let me down. And there I was one day before my wedding with no flowers. I didn’t want my big day to be ruined just because of that. I drove to another florist nearby and he has saved the day. He had no experience putting wedding bouquets together, whatsoever, but the flowers turned out better than I could have imagined. Day seven, the big day, I woke up super early since there was still cake that had to be picked up and our food, and all that had to be taken to the gym of our church where we had our reception. I finished everything with four hours to spare until the ceremony.
My princess day was just the way I have pictured it throughout all the years and if you exactly know what you want on that day or how you want it, since you have been planning it for years now, putting it together shouldn’t be a problem. I had a dream wedding and it only took me seven days to put it together, but let me tell you something: I wouldn’t want to do it again.
