One More Month

Posted by Shannon Burke on September 11, 2009 9:20 am

Today is September 10th and this means one very important thing – I will be married to Dan one month from today. Last Saturday, as Dan and I continued to unpack boxes and wrestle with empty totes in our new apartment, I looked up and said, “Do you know what today is?” He thought for a moment and confessed he had no idea. It was one year from the day that he proposed to me. In the chaos of our move, we neglected to acknowledge this fact. I guess this is par for the course as the past year has been packed with appointments and preoccupations, but it is really amazing to me how quickly the time has passed. So much has been accomplished; yet, there seems to be so much more to do.

As I finished organizing our computer desk, I let my mind wander. Was it really already one year ago that I was eating lunch with Dan, my aunt, and my mom downtown after seeing the first of our reception possibilities? It seems impossible, but I know it is the truth. I began to run through the things that have been checked off of my list: reception, ceremony, dress, honeymoon, flowers, photos, music, cake, and so on. Every decision was planned and thought through, from the most major to the smallest detail. Soon, all of these plans will come together and I will be able to see how everything turns out. I get butterflies in my stomach just thinking about it.

To be perfectly honest, planning a wedding is not something I would enjoy doing again. I give those who do this for a living a lot of credit. My experience has been filled with many highs and some significant lows, most notably the stress that I encountered because of the status of the Statler Towers. I am glad I made the choice to move, but I am still very happy for those whose weddings will be at the Statler. I am sure they will be wonderful.

Dan and I know that we have to make one final list before the wedding. This will include all of the small things that have yet to be handled: cake toppers, music playlists, final measurements, etc. Then… it will be complete. And, while I am extremely excited for this big day, I am also quite nervous about all of the things that could go wrong. I am confident in my vendors – but you just never know. I’d love to hear from other brides about how they have handled or plan on handling wedding day nerves!
