Wedding Mishaps

Its been a real adventure planning this wedding! We have had a million and one things go wrong. To start out the problems our invitations were a mess! My mom would not decide on a person to do them. So when we finally made a decision on the person, it was the middle of July. They should have been out by then. But we got them going and all was well. Or so you would think... The invitations themselves looked really great. I was very happy with them. However, the envelopes had the wrong return address on them. Then after we made labels to go over them, and sent out the invites, Cameron's mom noticed that the church in Ohio had the wrong address. It was a nightmare! Even worse is the guy who did them didnt have them ready until the very end of July. It was awful. I would not recommend him.

Once this mess was finally taken care of, the food became a problem. I didnt want to serve food at my wedding. I just wanted dessert. So I chose cheesecake. We had just planned on getting them from Costco. Well that was a nice idea. When we went to order them, they said they were not making them anymore. I was dying. So we went a million other places and then finally returned to Costco and pleaded with the manager. Luck was on our side and they agreed to make our cheesecake!! So happy! Problem solved!

But the biggest and the worst of them all was our reception center CAUGHT ON FIRE!!!! It was honestly my worst nightmare coming true. 10 days before my wedding the reception center had a fire. Not exactly good timing!! I was in tears and a mess all day. Luckily prayers were answered and the Wight House was available on my date. We booked it! Its been a fairly easy transition over there. Not my first choice, but it will still be really pretty and nice. I am just grateful it was available. However, the only reason it was, was the couple that had it booked broke up....sad for them...good for us. But hey it worked out and it will be nice.

I am just hoping and praying that we can make it through this next week and not have any more problems. Crossing our fingers!!
