The Road to Becoming a Fleury...

The future Mr. and Mrs. Nicholas Adriel Fleury (aren't we cute?!)

So, I've been a bridesmaid four times over now. I love being a bridesmaid... getting my hair done, walking up and down the aisle, helping the bride with whatever she needs, dancing like crazy at the reception...

Well now the tables have turned. This past weekend I finished my last stint has a bridesmaid. Now it is my turn to be the bride.

I have been engaged nearly a month now and since then I've learned that planning a wedding is possibly the most stressful thing I will ever do in my life. There's figuring out the budget, getting a guest list, finding a reception hall... AHHHH!!!
I think about the moment when I walk down to aisle to Nick and we become husband and wife.
But there is sooooooo much to do in order to get to that moment...
My three best friends, Laura, Jen and Janine have all advised me to elope. They all hated the planning process too. I thought it was only me...
But do I take their advice? Do I ever take anyone's advice? NO!

So the road to becoming a Fleury although I am going to be speeding down it (we're doing it in 7 months!) is going to be long, bumpy and have some tricky turns.
But I just try to keep in mind what the most important thing is... I'M BECOMING A FLEURY!!!
