One Month Countdown!
It feels like just last week I was writing about my six month countdown. And not even that long ago that I was saying “Yes!” with my beautiful, new diamond engagement ring. But with only one month left until our big day, boy is time flying by!
I just got my official wedding timeline and checklist, and am working furiously on all the final details. And with bridal showers and bachelor parties, it’s all starting to feel real.
But in between place cards, programs, wedding bands and bridal party gifts….I’ve realized there are a few other extremely important items on my to-do list.
Mainly – that now is the time to take a minute and reflect. Appreciate all the hard work you, and likely many others, have put into planning this special day. Chances are, when it comes time for the wedding, it will go by in a whirlwind.
I was becoming so preoccupied with the endless list of tasks on my plate that I 
started to forget everything else. So what I’ve done is find a new appreciation for it all. I’m taking time to spend with my fiancé…not talking about wedding to-dos. I’m taking time to ask for help and say “thank you” for everything. And I’m taking time to concentrate on all the little details that will make our day extra special, and make our guests feel welcome and appreciated – details I didn’t realize were as important before.
As a result, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I feel happy, excited and am truly enjoying every moment again. So bring on the next four weeks…because this girl is ready for anything!
