I can't even believe it....the wedding is one week from tomorrow!! I picked up my dress today. I had to have my fiance pick me up from the dress shop b/c I didn't know how else to get the dress home. The shop is in downtown San Francisco so there is no place to park, so he had to wait outside. I think he would be too clueless to get any sense of the dress based on its size etc. Luckily he couldn't see through the thing it was in. I better watch what I eat this week b/c that thing has no room to wiggle! I also got my final printing needs yesterday....we got the table name cards, seating cards, cupcake menu, flip flop sign etc. You can't read it probably on the blog but I printed great quotes of San Francisco on the backs of all the table names. It was hard to pick just 9!! Oh and I got a sample of our centerpieces....I am in LOVE with them. I just think they are so beautiful. Can't wait to see them all set up and my bouquet as well! TICK TOCK......
