One Day To Go!!!!

Today, Harry’s family went to Santa Monica Beach. They had a really great time.

Harry and I couldn’t go as we had tons of wedding preparations to take care of...

We got up early as we had a lot to do today.. this was the last day to clean and decorate everything. We cleaned the house, cleaned the backyard, and set up the tents. At 10am when the Men’s Warehouse opened we picked up my tux. Luckily it fit great and I was able to take it home.

We came home and started to decorate. Our first idea was to wrap the altar in Starfleet colors (Blue, Red and Yellow). Well I did one side and it looked like a circus tent.. we were not happy with it so then we decided to so tulle but the while tulle and while alter didn’t really look that great so we headed back to Michael’s craft store to get some green ivy type plant to put all over the alter… well we found some that we liked but it was very expensive and we needed 14 strand’s which was going to cost way to much. We did find some red, golden and green ivy, which Harry and I both kind of liked but it was on sale so we bought it. We also picked up some more sunflowers (my favorite flower) as I felt we didn’t buy enough the first around.

We came home and started to decorate like crazy, it was getting late and we were both so tired from showing around Harry’s family the past week. We knew we had tons still to do but called it quits around 7:30pm. We did get a lot done. The alter was decorated in sunflowers, ivy and star trek figures, the patio was decorated in ivy and sunflowers, the tents were up, everyone was stored away that need to be stored away. We had to wait till tomorrow morning when the tables, table clothes and other rented material would arrive.

Harry’s family arrived from their day at the beach around 8 pm and Harry’s mom made some vegetarian food for herself, Gerda and Leonhard, while Bernd and I picked up some food for the rest of us... around 9 pm we all called in the day...

TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY!!!!!
