It's been a few months since Justin asked me to marry him in Cape Cod, but it feels like time has flown by. The date was Thursday, 8/28/08. We chose Saturday 9/19/09 to stick with the number "thing" and 13 months felt like a really long time to plan a wedding. As we've learned, with nine months left to plan, time freakin' flies. We've got the location, the caterer, the dj and the dress. I've been ripping pages out of magazines left and right, which I'm sure will prove to be very annoying to my hairdresser, florist and everyone else who has to deal with me.
I'm delighted to announce that I have found a Groomzilla in the making. It's both a blessing and a curse. A perfect example of this is that he volunteered to help select invitations. We started online. He wasn't thrilled. Then I went to the local stationary store and signed out two of those enormous invitation books. 200 invitatins later, he wasn't impressed. Four days, 1000 invitations and 9 samples mailed to us, we found one we liked, yet he doesn't seem excited about the selection. Blessing: that he wants to do this together. Curse: he's fussier than I expected.
