8 days to go!

Get in as much You time as possible.

The wishing well and the cake will be fine - ask for a picture from the suppliers of them before they are sent, so that you can at least see what they look like. You are very well organised just ensure that you have some 'me' time set aside for friday evening.

Hotel packing will not take up much of your time, put in a few emergency provisions - such as safety clips, stain removal wipes, deodrant, a pair of flat shoes, blister plasters and so on so if you have any little crisis you can simply excuse yourself and go up to your room to sort it out, also remind your OH to pack his walking shoes...My OH forgot his day shoes and ended up spending first day travelling on Honeymoon walking around being foot nipped in his wedding shoes, so our first port of call was a shoe shop.

Thanks Grace@PEP. I expect I will end up packing OH overnight bag anyway! :-)

Yes, its going to take a little while to 'come down' from all the wedding planning I think - as I feel like I have nothing to do!

Take time out that week and it will be less difficult, plan a coffee with family members, things you always feel you would like to do but never get around to as you are working. A lunch out with girlfriends, a date night in with the other half and make the wedding an extended celebration of who you love, and who is close to you. That way you will not feel so much at an anti-climax following the wedding planning part.

I felt the same, though it came later for me, around 4-5 days before the wedding we were off work and expecting to be running round in a bit of a panic but we had everything sorted. You should pamper yourself, and as others have said, spend some time together and enjoy the calm before the storm.

Yay! I was exactly the same, its lovely to be organised and calm!

Congratulations on the Job too! Great news!
