Like a Kid on Christmas Eve...
With five days to go, everyone is asking if I'm excited... Tomorrow is my last day of work for three and a half weeks. The weather forecast for this weekend looks AMAZING (Alexis sent me the weather update this morning and said "Don't think you can get any better :)". We'll be celebrating with 111 of our closest friends and family. I will be marrying my best friend and joining a wonderful family. Oh, and this time next week, we'll be on a plane to Hawaii. I seriously feel like a kid on Christmas Eve! Can't wait for this weekend!!

Operation Chick-LeNoir Baltimore Style
With 2 weeks before the wedding, we decided that it was time for another bachelorette party, this time Baltimore-style! Last Saturday was a pretty miserable day weather-wise, but by dinner time, Hanna had passed and the girls and I headed out for dinner and drinks at Power Plant! We had a great time! I have included some pictures below...

A Few Random Things
16 days until the wedding, but who is counting!? The last few weeks have been quite busy! I had my final dress fitting last night, and I absolutely LOVE my dress! All of the guys have been fitted for their tuxes and all of the girls have their bridesmaid dresses. We might actually pull this wedding off!
One of the things that the bridesmaids did for me at my shower was ask all the guests to write down their dreams and wishes for Ryan and me on a pink card. We ended up receiving 19 cards, so starting on the 19th day before the wedding, we will (or already have) been reading one card a day. The dreams and wishes that we've read so far have been so nice, and we really appreciate everyone taking the time to do this!!
On a different note, a question was asked about the photographers at the wedding, and I wanted to share the same information with our guests (or the ones who read the blog). The question was whether it would be ok to ask the photographers to take pictures at the reception. What I mean by this is special request pictures that you might want of you and your family, of you and your new friends that you meet at the reception, of the people sitting at your table, really just about anything. The answer to this is Yes, of course - please ask the photographers to take any pictures that you would like. There are 2 reasons for this: 1) I absolutely LOVE pictures and the more pictures the photographers take, the more this benefits us; and 2) We are paying the photographers enough money to basically own stock in their company so we want them to earn their fees by taking as many pictures as possible. The pictures that the photographers take will be posted on their website after the wedding and will be available for you all to see and order directly from them if you want. Once we have ordered our album, Ryan and I will get the digital rights to all of the pictures taken, so if you are not in a hurry to get any pictures that you might want printed, we would be more than happy to email you pictures that you like.
