it's finally here.....geoff and sunny's wedding day!!
after a very busy week of running around meeting vendors, dress fittings, tux fittings, meeting helpers, trips to the airport to pick ppl up, it's come down to this.....the last few hours before they walk down the aisle and say "I DO!"
i'm very excited to be a bridesmaid in their wedding party, and i'm extremely honoured that i was entrusted to be the wedding coordinator over the past many months, as they finalized details from toronto. i've had mixed thoughts throughout this entire process. on the one hand, i love organizing events and coordinating logistics and getting hands-on, but on the other, i feel like it's a lot of pressure to meet other ppl's expectations and it felt like i was planning my own wedding all over again. that's both a good and bad thing :P
the "early" stage was probably the easiest, just keeping track of correspondence and payments, meeting the vendors sunny and geoff had chosen and just keeping in touch w/everyone on a regular basis. the "middle" stage was more involved.....my bridesmaid responsibility kicked in and the las vegas weekend was coordinated along with the vancouver dinner/movie and bridal shower. more payments were due, my dress fittings were coordinated. then came the home stretch.....sunny arrived in vancouver, and it was go, go, go from that point on. we did have a couple relaxing days to just shop on robson (albeit for my shoes on the wedding day....who knew i had to wear new shoes?), had quickie facials at skoah (the skoah-glowah, baby!), and the week finished with our manis and pedis.
but as of now, i've relinquished all my organizer responsibilities and passed everything onto priscilla, and she's going to run the show tomorrow. i've packed my bag for tomorrow, along with our "emergency kit" for the limo. i hope i haven't forgotten anything!
see ya'll at the church :-) good night!
