Our wedding is in 4 months, to the day. I'm not really sure what to write next; I'm don't really know how I feel. Nervous, excited, stressed, overwhelmed, eager. Probably all of those, depending on which moment you ask.
Wedding stress seemed to peak a few weeks ago, over table runners of all things. I saw a fabric I really liked, the price a little higher than I wanted to spend, but the store didin't have sufficient quantity. The Australian distrubutor didn't have any left and the international supplier wouldn't even have any more until September. I was ridiculously disappointed and everything else Mum and I looked at seemed lesser. Although we don't have table runners yet, I decided the issue was going to wait for a month and suddenly I was feeling relaxed about the wedding. (The venue is quite stark and there are no tablecloths, so table runners are something I do want to have.) It's funny how no decision can sometimes be the right decision. Although, being wedding relaxed makes me wonder what I'm forgetting!
My finger has been bare this week, my engagement ring with a jeweller who is making us wedding rings. Mike has selected titanium, with a little detailing from the book of designs. Apart from a watch, he doesn't wear jewellery and it was odd seeing him trying rings on. I had an idea in mind for my ring which the jeweller has adapted it a little and I'm not sure, I can't picture it. The jeweller said he couldn't picture it either, so I'm keen to see on Friday what he's come up with. Sterling silver models at this stage, so amendments can be made.
I received an email from the venue that the Head Chef was finalising the food concepts to be shown to us, and that they were working up a timeline of meetings and tastings in the lead up to the wedding. We have food concepts! That makes me feel very swish. Then I think meeting and schedules and wonder exactly how complicated can it be?
