I told you so...

I hate to say it but I really wanna say it to some of the people who are going to make our wedding happen....I told you so! Of all the people who said we could just wait on it and there is no rush to take care of things in the spring when the wedding is not until the summer - they are all realizing now that summer is their busy season and they are running out of time! Ha!

Again, may I say how lucky they are that I have become a much more laid back person than I once was... :)

On that note, two bits of good news. (See, finally, as it is now the month of June, people are willing to work with us, so lots got done on this magical day of June 2.)

One, KB finally FINALLY met with the woman about our reception. This was just getting us more and more frazzled this weekend, as KB tried to stop in on Saturday to talk to her, but a tour bus of people had just arrived so he decided that wasn't the best time. On Sunday, we stopped in at what we thought was early on Sunday morning, but the one server was in-over-her-head busy and the woman who we needed to meet with would be "in shortly." We left our phone numbers for her to call us when we could come in and meet any time during that day. KB then proceeded to call her three times during the day and no answer. She finally calls us at 10pm as we are driving back into Riga. I quick made an appointment for KB with her this morning - and it worked!!!! So the good news is that the reception is happening! Also, they did not try to do some kind of a crazy price increase on us as happened to our friends I & PP - who were quoted 4 Ls a piece on chair cover rentals and then just before the wedding they tried to say 20 Ls a piece!

The second bit of very good news is that I will not be needing to wear a potato sack to this wedding. As I had not yet tried on the dress, I was really beginning to have anxiety at random points during my days as to how I would end up looking. Anxiety to the point of calling KB just to ask "Will you still marry me if I'm ugly that day?" His best answer was "Yes, pelite, I would marry you if you were wearing a potato sack that day." The potato sack was really starting to become an option in my mind. However, since today's dress fitting, I am happy to announce that I will not be wearing a potato sack and I might even look pretty damn good that day.

T minus 26 days.....the planning finally begins! :)
