[dc]W[/dc]ith our wedding a week and change away, saying Stephanie and I are busy is an understatement. Because, we ain’t just busy: stressed, tired, cranky, irritable, and emotional, the list goes on—I don’t know how Stephanie puts up with me.
Operation Wedding A Go Go is in full swing, which means I have to ease up on the blogging for the next week and change. Although I said the same thing last week and ended up with three blog posts and a comic (four posts, if you count my weekly update on danieljhogan.com).
Don’t worry, the comics will continue. I already started next week’s, and I have one in mind for the day after the wedding. This could be my only blog post this week though (yes, which might mean no Friday Six this week. Or next week).
Wedding Planning Final Countdown
The big thing on my Wedding Honey Do List is, start and finish illustrating our wedding programs. Yes, I will draw some silly pictures for the programs we’ll hand out at the wedding ceremony. The difficult part is over though: I have an idea and a style in mind. Now I just have to draw. And draw. And draw.
I caught a break this time and Stephanie said black and white would be fine with her. Whew (coloring our wedding invitations took longer than I expected).
I figured now is a good a time as any to collect and recap my other Wedding Planning Adventures posts. Everyone loves list blog posts, right?
Wedding Planning Adventures Top 10 Stories (And Comics)
- I Think My Mother is Trying to Tell Me Something – A prologue of sorts.
- Engaged – Where it all started! How I popped the question to Stephanie.
- She Shot Down My Idea For a Back to the Future Wedding – ::sigh:: The title says it all.
- Wedding Planning Adventures: All the Maps – Stephanie took me to MSU Surplus to buy a plethora of maps (similar to a plethora of pinatas).
- Wedding Planning Adventures: The Bridal Show – Oh. My. Ever been to a bridal show? One word: CRAZY
- Catfunding – A comic about Stephanie’s idea to raise wedding planning money.
- The Best Best Man Gift Ever: A Viking Drinking Horn – While not about our wedding exactly, it does have my thoughts on wedding party gifts and influenced the choices I made (and will make) for our gifts.
- Wedding Planning Adventures: Your Ad Here – My idea to sell advertising space on my suit to raise funds for our wedding reception.
- 4th of July Photoshop Hilarity – Fun times while working on wedding shower thank you cards in Photoshop.
- Sick Burn, Grandma – Speaking of wedding showers, I got totally served by my Grandma at Stephanie’s personal shower.
There is still more I need to write about, including our various wedding showers. We’re up to about 13 at this point, I think. It is pretty crazy. Then there is the music situation. We might have to improvise, maybe with something like this sound block/bison horn deal.
I kid of course. I don’t have an iPhone.
After the wedding, I’ll have posts with my illustrations for the save the dates, invitations, wedding shower thank yous, and the programs. Until then, I’ll have new posts when I can. Now, time to figure out our wedding readings—I’m sure I can find appropriate Prince or Danzig lyrics for the special day.
