Someone please calm this bride down!

I've had a STRESSFUL week and I think I did it to myself. I made the mistake of sitting down and starting (I say starting because I started the list, realized how much I had to do, started crying and stopped with the list) a list of things that still need to be done for the wedding.

While I'm so excited about everything that IS done, I'm panicking about the loose ends that need to be tied up, in what order, and who is going to loosen up my time to allow me to do all of these little things!

What IS done... All vendors are booked except caterer (waiting on a proposal which should be to me by the end of the week, met with them last night and OH MY GOSH are they great), Men's wardrobe, and rentals (tables, linens, a few odds and ends). So I'm doing pretty good but the loose ends are TERRIFYING ME!

I have to finalize the invitations, shop for the ivory and black paper for the invitations, print the invitations, cut the sheets, build them and get them out. Mind you there are two seperate invites, one for those invited to the WEDDING and one for those invited to the RECEPTION only. Keeping that all straight is keeping me up at night!

I have to figure out what we are going to do in the ceremony space to keep it from looking like a box. I have a want list but how to implement all of that is mind boggling!

We have to develop a ceremony. Keith and I have one idea that we have a rough idea with and need some tweaking, I just sent an email to our pastor to see if he can come up with anything. I may open it up for discussion here too.

We have to build the programs, the favors, the cd's that go inside the programs and all kinds of other little projects. I hope my girlfriends don't hate me by the time this is all done as I'm going to be begging them for help!

I actually passed off my first project onto my long time friend Leah, she's got the creative touch for it and I'm hoping she accepts the project! I'm working on an idea for my "guestbook" I don't want the traditional, sign here please book, I want a table with white paper for people to make their own snowflake, sign it, write a note on it, what have you and afterwards we'll adhere it to black sheets that we'll make into a keepsake book. I'll blog more on this one later. I'm working on some prototypes.

Also, I'm up for suggestions here, I'm looking for a good way to serve hot drinks. I want to serve hot cider and peppermint hot chocolate, that won't injure anyone but looks great (minor focal point possible?)

anyone with any ideas feel free. I'm up for any help.
