last minute details:

I'm trying to remember if i am forgetting anything...

I'm kind of stressing about everyone getting there and flying in on time and the tuxes being ready. I need to ship out my dress either tomorrow or the next day. I have to pay for my hair and make up. I dont know if i need to do anytjing else at all, I'm starting to freak out.

If it makes you feel any better, you're not alone! I'm right there with you.

Yesterday my mom pre paid Ana for both of our hair and make up services. It ended up being 250.00. I also shipped out my wedding dress to my grandma in Florida. I am kind of freaking out about that a little bit. It cost 60.00 because I got all the extras, 1st class, delivery confirmation, and insurance. So I am hoping it arrives without any problems or else I am going to have a major breakdown.

 

[aduck126]

MY DRESS HAS ARRIVED!

my grandma got it in the mail yesterday, yay for one less thing to worry about!

People are driving me crazy!!!

I am getting so stressed out over everyone keeping on track throughout the wedding and not getting lost during location changes. I am getting really scared because everyday I get someone sending me an email asking me "so how do I get to the magic kingdom? How do I get to epcot?" I didn't take into consideration when planning my wedding that people would seriously not have the slightest clue about disney world and it is driving me crazy.

I'm also freaking out because I have no idea how to get to the international gateway from the polynesian. Our dinner is at ohana then we have a DP. So people are asking and I haven't a clue and some people are saying that they are going to go back to their hotels to change clothes when teh dinner starts at 5 and the DP is at 7:45. There is clearly not enough time to change clothes! People are getting me really stressed out. I wish tehy would all just relax so I could too.

Don't let it stress you out. I know it can be so frustrating. Can you designate a family member to answer these types of questions?

Is the I/G where you're meeting the Epcot guide? Can they just meet you at the front? From the Poly you'll take the monorail to EP but that will drop you off by the front entrance and you would need park admission to meet them at the I/G which I'm not sure if that would be a problem for some of your guests.

You could also go to the TTK and take a bus to BWI / YC / BC and then walk to the I/G. I'm pretty sure the TTK is within walking distance of the Poly.

thanks. i dont know if disney will let them walk through the front gates if they are wearing tuxes. I hope so. My days agenda from my WC says that everyone needs to meet at the international gateway at 7:45. So I'm just telling them all to meet there to avoid the wrath of disney. Everyone will have park admission so I can just tell them to go to Epcot the normal way through the front gates and meet at the international gateway. maybe that is what i'll do. I just hope that they are allowed in all dressed up.

The best way to get to IG would be to take a bus to the Yacht/Beach club. Then all you have to do is walk back outside and walk around the lake (like 5-10 minute walk)

The problem is there is no resort to resort buses, so you'd have to get to DTD or the TTC or a park and then take a bus to Yacht Club or even Boardwalk.

I'm sorry you're stress I guess that's something I haven't thought about either, but I will definitely try to include those plans. Your dog is HUGE! but adorable, haha. I can't believe it's so close. I'm just missing you. We're leaving WDW on Tuesday night, but I'm sure the stress now will be worth it and your day will be wonderful!

wow that is awesome! so much help, thanks alot!

So the weather is looking AMAZING for the wedding day! I am soooooo relieved. As of right now it is supposed to be 68 degrees with a few clouds and only a 10% chance of rain. Flying out of Milwaukee should be a breeze as well, the forcast calls for mostly sunny skies and no snow I am really glad we changed our flight because the day we were supposed to fly out is calling for snow showers. that could have been a close one.

Thank you so much!! Too bad it's going to freezing!! But I'm glad the weather sounds like it's going to be wonderful for your day. I can always layer up!

 

[Ann117]

[aduck126]

Good luck it so close!!

thanks Ann, It is coming up super fast. I dont think that it has hit me yet.

 

[not_Joanna_eggs]

Wow Amanda you're so close! Yay for no snow when your leaving That's my biggest fear for us. My sister barely got in for Christmas before they closed the airport.

I hope your guests relax and your able to have a stress-free few days before you leave!

Today is Jon's birthday!

I made him this awesome pie.

it is chocolate cookie cheesecake.

I think he wants to go see Sherlock Holmes and then go to his favorite pizza place. Right now it is a terrible snow storm outside so we will see if that alters any of the plans.

I'm leaving tonight, actually tomorrow morning. My parents are picking me up at 5am and we are off the the airport!

My moms friends threw me a small bachlorette party yesterday and it was sooo much fun. My moms boss had it at her house and cooked us all a really nice dinner and then we had a bunch of cocktails and played some games. I also got a lot of really nice gifts as well. My mom and I got our nails done and had so much fun all day. Now I have to drive back to Milwaukee and start packing

Safe travels!! Have a fabulous time! Hope your day is wonderful!
