17 Days!
Saturday I made a trip to JC Penny since I hadn’t received the dress from Missouri yet. Turns out whoever rang up the dress did not do it correctly. They rang it up as a regular sale as if I was in the store and not as a send. I have no idea if it was sent to me, but we were lucky enough to find another store that could do a proper send (I hope). Now I have to see if the JC Penny card I got (and was informed I didn’t actually need) ends up with a credit since I already paid it off. If the new dress doesn’t show up by Friday I’ll be going back again.
I really thought getting department store dresses would be easier than this, but I am incredibly grateful to the ladies who took time to help me for hours last time and helped me again this time despite the fact that they were extra busy with the tax-free weekend.
Yesterday we applied for our Iowa marriage license. We hadn’t realized we might need a witness to get the license until we were on the way there, but a friend came to our rescue so we didn’t have to make another trip. We get to pick it up on Friday!
Friday will hopefully also result in me wearing my full attire for the first time. Jordan’s mom is bringing down the veil and my friend will be there to do my hair, so I may as well put the ensemble together!
Aside from that, it’s been miscellaneous small things, like figuring out our ceremony program, sending out our rehearsal invites, and locking down times for everything. As the day gets closer I’m finding myself less stressed out about everything, which I hope is a good thing. (Jordan’s hoping it doesn’t mean I’m headed for a major breakdown just before the wedding or something.) I’m just more happy than stressed right now, and when I think about marrying Jordan the stress seems to melt away, at least temporarily.
