20 Days to Go!!

Oh my goodness! The wedding day is 3 weeks from last Friday. Wow! These last 3 months have just flown by. I think all of the planning is done and all that's left is a few loose ends with decorating. Hopefully those will be wrapped up by Wednesday of next week. I'm leaving Thursday to go take my bridal pictures in SLC. Should be fun! I still need to find someone to do my hair and makeup though. Ahhh!! I can't wait until April 14th when all this prep work is over and all we have to do is look forward to Friday, the 20th and then Saturday the 21st - Costa Rica here we come!!! :)

I went out to Las Vegas a few weekends ago to meet with the caterer and florist. I'm so excited for the food we're going to have at the reception. The Four Seasons is incredible and I'm thrilled with the choices we made. I think the guests will get lots of fun surprises that they've never seen at receptions before. It will be a night to remember and I hope that everyone who is there will feel special and pampered. I know I will.

The dress is finally coming together, and though it's not perfect, I think we've brought it to a point of being much more flattering. I need to find a sparkly necklace to add some pizzazz and the veil will help too, since it has sequins on it.

Mostly, I'm just so thankful for the peaceful heart I feel. The world is so caught up in the wedding and the showiness of it all, and that can add significant stress. When it's all said and done, I feel very lucky and thankful to be marrying a kind man with a good testimony and desire to take me to the temple. That matters over all else.
