Get Me To The Church On Time



I'll use any excuse for some Bowie, huh? *

Here's the thing: I am always late. Case in point: I've been meaning to write this particular blog post for about a week. See?

Also, in the past two years, I have moved twice. The first time, I cut my commute down from 1.5 hours to 45 minutes. the second time, it went down to 20 minutes. Wouldn't you know, I still get to work at about the same (not early) time?

Groomy and I, as a unit, are even later than either of us on our own. Ask our friends. We're been known to be an hour late for things. (An hour is a much more reasonable period of time than our usual lateness, so let's just pretend an hour is as late as we get. Because it's been ridiculous at times.) This is one reason why I'm glad we'll be separated until the ceremony on the wedding day. In theory, it'll cut down on the lateness factor.

It's an understatement to say I'm worried about being late for my own wedding - I know that it's one event that can't start without me! While some people may think this makes it ok to be late, I think it makes it even more unacceptably rude. So, I've already started on timelines for the big day in an effort to ensure everyone's where they need to be on time and that we have a significant time cushion for the inevitable mishap.

Thankfully for me, the wedding industry has made a cute little must-have template. Because a word document is just daft, my dear:


I have no idea how to actually make something like this happen (I think it involves Power Point), but I'm going to shop for some cardstock anyway!

*For the record, there's no church involved in our wedding. What can I say? We're heathens. It fits our bad-ass lawyerly image.
