Nichole's Wishes PJ 10/24/2011 ~ WP/ADH/SCP ** OUR WEDDING DAY ~ The Reception

[Nichole33]

DF's step mom made homemade Cherry Pinor Noir for us to put in our welcome boxes. We picked up the wine when we were in Michigan last month, but I finally ordered the labels. I need to have a couple brochures and leaflets printed up and cut then we can start working on putting together the welcome boxes!

I have also been busy working on the place card candles. These have been a harder project than I originally thought, but I am about half way done and finally getting the hang of it.

We ordered flameless candles to put in them. Originally the candle tip was taller than the glass, so DF removed the outside shell of the candle and we put just the light bulb and bottom part in the glass. I think they have turned out ok considering how hard they were to figure out!

I still have some menus to finish and then I need to print out the rehearsal dinner invites. We ran out of color ink last week, so I am waiting for our order to arrive!

Thanks so much! We ordered the flameless candles from batteryoperatedcandles.net. It was the least expensive place we could find them.

Thanks! It is my favorite wine that she makes! But, it tastes almost like juice, so it can catch up on you

60 days to go!!

We reached the 60 day mark!!! Wow we are finally getting so close!! [insert a mix of emotions ... nervous to get everything done ... excited for it to finally be here ... a little anxiety ... and a pinch of relief]

We got our application for the marriage license yesterday. So far the process has been really smooth. We will get it notarized this weekend and then I can check that off my do-to list

We officially listed my house for sale yesterday. I know if it just one more thing to deal with, but we would really like to be moved in somewhere by early December/late November so it just made sense to start now. So ... I get to add packing to my list of things to get done. We started a little earlier this week ... I never realized how many framed photos I had in this house until I had to start packing them all away! Taking out the personal stuff to show the house makes it look so bare!

60 days to go!!

Congrats! The time is flying by!!!

 

[lilsqueakrr]

OMG you are so so so so close! I can't imagine how you're feeling!!

Good luck with the house selling and all that jazz! I'm sending some pixie dust your way!!

 

[Sccrmnky2005]

CONGRATS ON THE 60 MARK!!! I'm EXTREMELY excited for you!!!!!

Today was met with more drama. As it turns out my off the wall BM has been cyber stalking me and decided to read my PJ. So I have taken down the pics of my dress and a few other things that I don't want posted all over the place out of malice.

It looks like she has officially dropped out of the wedding (via text message no less). My favorite parts are:

"Hey there botox bride! ...

Its amazing how many lies you've told lately. People are truly embarrassed for you

Have fun at the wedding and with your imaginary friends when its over!"

Not sure what lies I have told or who is embarrassed for me but I just want the drama to end!

 

[DoomBuggy0922]

OMG!!!! Really!?!?!? What the HECK!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry sweetie. Good riddance, I say <3

 

[lilsqueakrr]

Botox bride? Really? Seriously? Oof.

Looks like you are WAY better off without her already.

Ignore it. I'm dealing with drama on my end as well, with family. I'm just over it and don't listen at all anymore. It's for the best.

 

[tinkerbell 766]

Oh Nichole, I am truly sorry that you have to deal with this but very happy she is out of your wedding!!! You really do not need the hassle!!!

 

[pinkfairy1684]

I am really sorry that you are dealing with this crap! You don't deserve it. Sounds like someone is jealous...

 

[Sccrmnky2005]

I'm so sorry this is all happening so close to your wedding! Shows how good of a friend she wasn't.

It will be less drama you have to deal with from this point on, I just went tthrough the same thing so I can relate.

Sending you hugs!

This is so rude and uncalled for... I am glad she is not part of the wedding anymore- or I would have had to kindly ask her to leave!!

I hope the drama is coming to close and you can begin to get more excited for your big day!! Which is so close by the way!!! Good luck on your house!!! We are debating on whether to try to buy a house before November... haha
