I love making things for the wedding, but the problem with a wedding is... there is a LOT to make. You don't just make ONE invitation and you're done with it. You make 200 more.

You don't make one panel, you've got 8 more to balance the room.

One escort card is not enough for all of the guests, etc.

I've been sewing and painting for the past 2 weeks. The house is in shambles! Luckily, Donny put his OCDness away and is understanding that it would be ridiculous and time-consuming for me to put everything away every night only to take it all out again after work each day.

He does have a couple of projects of his own. He is making our card box (his single creative contribution) and he is in charge of folding the napkins. He's been taking care of the logistical stuff with the venue, which to my slight disappointment, has needed to be hand-held.

After I finish panels, I'll be finishing up the pillows and attacking the dinner menus/programs.

Our Co-ed shower is this weekend and the girls have been fantastic planning everything. I am looking forward to spending more quality time with the bunch.

P.S. Last night, we had a REALLY COOL date that is wedding-related. I can't spill the beans quite yet, but I AM SO EXCITED!
