Pulling a wedding together lickety-split

I'm getting married in just a few days. My parents will be here today. I have no decorations or anything planned for the wedding. I simply know where the wedding and the reception will be and that is it. I am not the greatest wedding planner. Luckily my roommates in Sandy have enlisted in this trial with me and we will be working on everything next week.

I feel like I should post something. I guess I should share feelings but I think I will just share the logistics of everything going on right now in my head.

My look--Make-up, hair, dress
So far, I have myself under control. Sage fixed my hair and now it looks natural, I look believably blonde.
Hylee has been practicing on my hair and I am thinking BIG hair. I have this dream of looking like Nanny Fine from The Nanny. I have make up. I've been practicing my make up. I have my wedding dress and everything that goes with that--shoes, jewelry, petticoat, corset. I am pretty much taken care ... although I do wish my arms would shrink and I could afford Steve Madden shoes.

His Look
He has a suit. That is about it. We don't have a wedding ring or a shirt to go under the suit. We don't even have shoes.

Their Look
Umm I have people that are coming to stand up with me, possibly. Kevin and Sage may be. We shall see. Brandon is not into ceremonies and he is not into the idea of people standing up with me.


Decorations 
Yeah, I'm figuring those out tomorrow. I have centerpieces and napkins. The center piece is just going to be a bowl of lemons, some sparkling water in a pretty bottle, plain battery-powered candles and maybe some sugar packets or bowls of sugar. I also found someone to lend me some white tablecloths.

We will be setting up the decorations on Friday, hopefully. The wedding ceremony will be set up an hour before the wedding. I am also working on a slideshow of Brandon and I.

Cleaning 
The house is immaculate and is waiting for my parents to show up today. I am proud of myself, the car practically sparkles too.


Photos
I am going to hand my camera to a friend and let them snap photos at the wedding.

Music
I will be putting together a playlist today.


Honeymoon
Can you believe that some awesome friends of ours paid for us to go the Marriott on Saturday night in Park City?!?! I am excited.

Family/Friends/Guests
Hopefully they will be there.
