Today I marry my best friend, Matthew Michael Denver, and we begin our lives together! At 2:00 pm I will walk down the aisle and will become Mrs. Denver from here on.
Thanks to everyone that helped and got us this far!
And to my wonderful husband, I love you more today than ever before and that love will always grow.
Love,
Ashley

Friday
1 day
It's tomorrow!
As for today, the girls and I have nail appointments at 2 (Jess, Shannon, Cris, and I at 1 for pedicures) at Metro Nails. We're going to go to the hotel and check in after that and get ready for the rehearsal at 4 30 at the chapel. After that we're going to dinner at Waterplace Restaurant at 6. Afterwards, we're going to McCormick & Schmidt's for drinks, which is in the bottom of the Biltmore.
However, the first thing that I need to do is get new shoes for Hannah since her feet grow at the rate of bamboo.
Jess, Cris, and I did the out of town bags this morning as well as the escort cards! We are all set for tomorrow!!

I have been on my feet today since 6 30 this morning! I worked from 7 to 3 30 today and then went immediately to pick up Cris from the bus station. We came back to the apartment and packed up most of the boxes for the reception. Cris, Jess, and I went to the Biltmore and delivered the boxes. We then went to pick up my dress, which I tried on again and it fits perfectly! After that we went to get pedicures, but had to schedule them for tomorrow before our manicures. Then we went to Walmart and got the rest of the supplies for the escort cards, out of town bags, and honeymoon. We picked up Matt and went to dinner at Newport Creamery and we JUST got back.
However, I am SO excited for the next two days...and the honeymoon!!

Tomorrow is my last day of work before the wedding! I'm working from 7 until 3 and then I'm off to do wedding stuff for the rest of the day! Thankfully, I'll have Jess and Cris here to help me with the rest of my to-do list, including the out of town bags!
We got a gift yesterday from CJ and Andrea that we finally opened today! It's the storage chest for our silverware! (Well, once we get the good silverware, it'll go in there.)
And good news is I'll be able to bring most of the reception stuff to the Biltmore tomorrow!! So excited to get it out of my house!

So I emailed Scott and found out that we're over $2000 short of our food minimum. We thought that we'd be able to use this for an open bar, but apparently it's ONLY for food. Now we have to add something and there's no other way we'll be able to afford an open bar. I'm rather annoyed...
I also got a text from my mom that Jos A Bank is saying there's an extra fee for the tuxes to remain there until Friday. What the hell.
Seriously, I am over all this wedding bullshit. I just want it to be here and enjoy it. UGH

So apparently we're meeting with our officiant on Wednesday. I'm really over all this, I like him but the meetings are honestly a waste of time. We'll see how this one goes.
I sent in the final payment for our photographer, Jess today! One more down!

I am close to being done packing for the honeymoon. I have to pack my shower stuff, but that has to wait until the end of the week. I also want a couple pairs of undies that are in the wash which I'll be doing later today.
I changed my dress for the rehearsal dinner last night. I haven't worn the black and white rose print one from 344 yet, so I'm going to wear that instead of the American Eagle one. I want to wear the black pumps that I got from Alloy and they wouldn't really go with the other dress.
I packed part of my overnight bag for Friday and Saturday night as well, however, I need to put in pajamas. Apparently that's my favorite thing to forget lately...like at my bachelorette.
I also relabeled the centerpieces yesterday and took out the extras that we'll no longer need. I'm going to sell most of the extra stuff (or try to) since I don't need 20 centerpieces lying around the house.
AND I addressed the wedding announcements yesterday. Now I just need to buy more stamps for them!

One Week
7 days
After much trouble and miscommunication, I have been waxed! I didn't end up doing my underarms, but I got a brazilian and the bottom of my legs. It was definitely an experience, one that I will not be repeating on my legs. The brazilian, however, might have to been done once in a while.
I'm going to really start packing for the honeymoon today. I need to get almost everything since the end of the week may be a little crazy. I'll probably start packing Matt's suitcase as well, since I know he's working until Thursday.

I'm going tomorrow to get waxed! I don't want to have to shave for the wedding or during the honeymoon, so my coworker, Raidiris, and I are going to Christiaan Salon to get everything done! Hello hairlessness!

I can't believe how close the wedding is! We're talking about plans that are happening NEXT week! So weird!
Matt's aunt and uncle bought us the tv stand that will match our (to be bought) bedroom set! It won't be available until the 16th, so we have to pick a day to have it delivered. (After the honeymoon, obviously.)
