Yesterday was the official day off to sort out wedding stuff day. Boy and me were ready to go at 9am for our first caterer (3 caterers, 3 marquee people to meet) and I felt smug with my compartmentalised wedding file, decorative notepad and colour co-ordinated metallic pens.
Within a few minutes of our first meeting tho, I realised that – despite my Monica-from-Friends attitude – I hadn’t thought about lots of things. As the day progressed, I realised I had much, much more to consider than what hairdo to have and how long my speech should last (yes, I am doing a speech. Microphone, Me and Drink – it’s gonna happen!).
So here’s what I said ‘No’ to yesterday:
- Have you considered security for the marquee?
- You say you’d like ivory, sage green and a touch of pink. Do you know if you want dusky pink, baby pink, cerise or pale pink?
- Linings for the marquee. Do you know if you want colour co-ordinated pelmets?
- Do you have refrigeration for wine?
- Have you sorted out ice?
- Do you know if you want wooden flooring, carpet, or event flooring?
- What kinds of meat do you want on the carvery, do you know?
- Have you considered the type of napkin you’d like – colour, linen, high quality disposable?
Do I still think I am Hyper-Organised-Sorted-Bridezilla?
No.
Ha… ya think there are only four shades of pink? Be afraid… be very afraid!!!
