I'm still going to do my best to put unique, loving detail into the wedding design, but whatever doesn't get done doesn't get done. And I'm cool with that. :)<br /><br />xo,<br />mMelissa at bubbyandbean.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529482206467186418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408906677306311135.post-86902727800700284892011-08-29T15:31:14.318-05:002011-08-29T15:31:14.318-05:00We got married so young, that I had very little i...We got married so young, that I had very little idea what to even do. My wife did a lot of the planning by herself, and I happily helped where I could. It is a lot of prep and a lot of work for a day that goes by so quickly, but I will say that in 8 years when you look at the album and say, "oh yeah i remember making that" It will all be sooooo worth the effort you put in.J.Crabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07188400399317102528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408906677306311135.post-10274346221330449962011-08-29T12:23:21.494-05:002011-08-29T12:23:21.494-05:00You're a brave soul in taking on so many thing...You're a brave soul in taking on so many things!

I'm glad you took a breather and I bet that gives more motivation to get the rest done. I hope Bubby dog is doing better too. It sucks to see your fur babies have seizures, I had to as well and it's the worst feeling in the whole world!!Ginahttp://www.ginapincushion.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6408906677306311135.post-47507020580046984112011-08-29T09:35:04.397-05:002011-08-29T09:35:04.397-05:00I'm glad you're feeling less stressed!

Of course, the planning still fell to me and even though it was small (in relation to most) it as very stressful and I still remember that time as being pretty miserable...NOT how you want to think about your wedding.

They don't care how perfect everything is. <br /><br />I hope Bubby is feeling better!
