Marital Bliss is Nice ;)

Enjoying the second night of my honeymoon! I had a blast at my wedding despite all the drama behind the scenes. It took a lot out of me but I just kept leaving everything to God and I know that kept me from having a complete melt down. I was in my own world and I want to stay there forever but I know I can't. I am again this week though! ^^ I really feel complete now only because knowing I made a covenant with Jesus and my Jesus, solidified every broken part of my being. I feel safe, secure, and most of all loved completely. I pray that everyone that was there are blessed because they saw a glimpse of God's amazing love! He has done so much for Jesus and I that I will follow Him completely. I am not afraid to say it or show it anymore. There is nothing wrong with this much happiness, this much love and I deserve it. To whoever reads this who needs to hear this: this happiness can and will happen to you if you would only let Him in! There is nothing wrong with yielding and submitting yourself. It will hurt a little at first only because all the things you insist on holding on to, all the things that you think are good for you and what you want, need to be stripped down from your very core. Like a house with too much paint and wallpaper; Jesus Christ will clean you up, remodel you like brand new, with God providing everything in abundance and the Holy Spirit as the perfect tool to get the job done. May God Bless you and keep you! Everything will get better, HE PROMISES! :)

Today is the Day!

I'm still awake of course! My family really came through for me today and we accomplished so much in one day. I thank God for the wonderful people He has given me to help make our day so wonderful. As crazy as it started out, with me being clueless as to how to even begin to plan a wedding, I still managed to have just the right amount of everything at just the right time. This day is dedicated to God, my family and my friends. I know I worried occasionally and had little tiny panic attacks but I know I tried my best not to become a bridezilla!^^ I can't wait til tonite, we're gonna have a blast but I especially look forward to the honeymoon!!

Good Nite! :)

Stay Tuned for the pics!!

Rain Rain Go Away!!

Only 4 days left. What can I say but blah! It rained on Marlon and Merany's wedding but they were smart and had theirs INSIDE! It was soooo beautiful, I can only hope and pray that ours will be that wonderful. It's hard to stay positive when there is still lots to do and I am surrounded by meteoroligists. Little by little my ideas are being chipped away almost to the point where I don't care what happens anymore. I know what's important and that's all that matters. If it rains and no one shows up, I guess we'll have left over bbq til Thanksgiving. I have tents, a car port and a big porch, if that doesn't help I don't know what will!

Less Than 2 Weeks!!

I just finished writing my vows and I have to admit it was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Then again, once I get in the mood to write, everything just comes pouring out. Tomorrow we're heading to the courthouse with Marlon and Merany to get our marriage licenses. I'm glad we're going together, I think it will take the edge off for all of us! I'm praying that it all goes well for us and we can finish up all the wedding planning. This is going to be a long week thats going to go by way too fast!

Just Breath!!

Today I mailed out more invitations but I still have a few more to send out. I'm so glad theyre done with, so far that was pretty rough. I just hope we have enough guests, enough food, and enough parking! I also got to talk to some awesome chicks about my cake. I think its going to look amazing! So far so good. I know I might not get everything I wanted in a wedding but I was told to "Just breath...it will all come together. Remember what matters most it that you and Jesus are finally getting married and making this special vow before God! The rest is superficial." It is so true and I have to keep reminding myself that when things don't work out. Honestly I'm just ready to go on the honeymoon!!!

Almost Done!

Daniela and I are finally going to get these invitations knocked out tomorrow. Once they're done I will be able to breath a little easier! Hopefully Saturday, the guys are going to get what they're going to wear and I will get my dress back! I couldn't decide which picture to put in the invitations so I picked both.^^ I'm just praying they don't look too crazy but I just want them done with either way. I'm almost falling behind schedule but as long as the important stuff gets done I'm good. I so glad DT Photography was able to take our pictures at the last minute!!

One Month Away!!

The temptation to stress is imminent!! I got most of what I need except for the DJ and just a few things here & there. My funds are low and so is my energy. On the bright side, we're going to take pictures with my friend David Alex tomorrow! I'm looking forward to that. It's going to be a long day so I better get some rest!

It's Almost Crunch Time!!!

Working at the last minute is just how I roll!! I'm going to try harder to get things done this week. Especially since my mom is starting in on the nagging! ^^ I can do this!! I can do this!!

I was in Scrapbook Heaven!!!

I decided to checkout the Scrapbook Heaven on Bandera and I must say that store is AWESOME!!! I am so glad I went there for help with my invitations. Daniela and I got a lot of tips from the ladies there and had lots of fun too! The owner even went out of her way to help us cut the paper to the perfect size. We should have these invitations done in no time!!! Now I just have to make sure everything else gets squared away. FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS! One project at a time with no time to spare. I have to admit I'm getting distracted with looking forward to the big nite on Friday! I can't wait!

Week 3????

Time is flying by so quickly!!! I'm not gonna freak out!! Everything is starting to come together and its all a matter of patience now. I'm still struggling with my budget because I want to make sure I don't spend too much on one thing and not have enough for another. At least the invitations are almost done. I'm getting some much needed help from my friend Michelle and my flower dilemma should be no more. I just have to stay focused and make sure I make valuable use of my time!

One Week Down

I have less than two months to plan this wedding and I'm trying not to panic! :( I don't know what I'm doing anymore but I'm doing my best to keep myself together. I thank God so much for my friends because I would be so lost right now. On top of all this, I'm screwing up regular things that are going on in my life. Tomorrow is another day, so I'm just gonna keep praying to have faith in the people helping me and faith in myself as well. I can't give up despite whatever drama is being thrown at me!! Hopefully I can start putting pics of everything I'm working on soon! ^^

Invitation Shopping

It was a long, hot day but with the help of my very own invitation expert Daniela, we got just about everything we need to make the invitations. I'll post some pics of the sample by the end of the week. :)

Blessings Galore!!

Wow I still can't believe how wonderful the Lord is and how awesome people can be! I was getting a little worried about having enough money to pay for the stuff I needed to make this wedding happen but I should have known better. God is showing me what patience and faith can do if I just believe in Him! So now I'm going shopping with one of my favorite gurls for invitation stuff in the morning. I still have a bit more stuff to do but I am going to stay postive about this all and try my best not to freak out. I don't need to freak out because I know everything will work out. I better get to bed so I can wake up in the morning! ^^ Thanks goes out to all the people that have helped me so much to get this far!! Muah!

Nite! :)

This is gonna be fun!

So I only have 2 months to plan this wedding!! I've planned a few parties before but this wedding is going to be a big challenge. Yet, at the same time it seems to be unfolding with little effort (especially on my fiance's part^^). As if I don't have much else to do, I've decided to make a blog about it all! The whole purpose for it really is just to share my experience with anyone who finds my life some what interesting and to share the story of me and my brains (jesus). We have been through alot since the very beginning of our relationship and now we are finally getting married!! I never thought this would happen for me but I should have known since I am marrying my prince charming! I'll try my best to keep everything from now on, about my wedding, posted so that you can watch it come together and I can come back here to enjoy it all over again. :) For now I'm going to stop here and get some rest to prepare for week 1 of the 2 month adventure! Good night and God Bless!
