Description:I realized today that alot of big changes will be happening, before the milk even goes bad!
Inside the envelope that says "How I'm feeling 7 days before getting married", there is a letter that says:
August 21, 2004
7 days. 1 week.
Right now I'm feeling a million different things, excited, giddy, nervous, stressed, emotional.. I can't seem to turn my head off at night to sleep!
I seem to have become obsessed with the weather forecasts on the internet and cursing the ones that say it will rain next Saturday. I know I have no power over the weather, which is seriously tough for a control freak!
I can't wait to see Brad in his tux and get to wear my dress - THE perfect dress. I'm looking forward to the moment when he first sees me. Just thinking about it gives me butterflies.
While I am really, really looking forward to our wedding, I have to say I won't be one of those who is sad when the whole process is over. It's been a lot of work, tiring and stressful at times. I know on the day it will all be worth it but there are times I've seriously kicked myself for not grabbing Brad and running off to Vegas!
In the end, I just can't wait to start the new chapter in our lives and be married to the man I am utterly and completely head over heels in love with. 5 years together - here's to 100 more. Baby, I can't wait to be your wife.

Well... by the I'm posting this comment you milk has already gone bad and you're probably already on your honeymoon! I love the layout -- a totally cool idea. LOL! Sometimes when I buy milk I notice the date and wonder how it could last that long, then I realize that it's only a week away --- sometimes time flies! Congrats on the wedding!
This is probably one of the best ideas I have seen!!! what a great idea to really keep that "pre-wedding" feeling. Now just remember to drag is page out every time you two disagree or you get frusterated with him. lol
You are so lucky to be a scrapbooker BEFORE the wedding! How I wish I had been able to do a layout like this (but I didn't scrap in 1985!) Awesome color combo, great use of the pp, and incredible journaling. I wish you your dream day on Saturday!
This is so cool! I think you should submit this-it is so original! I wish I had jotted down my thoughts before I got married-it would have been neat to read them 8 years later! Really nice page! TFS

Your journaling is wonderful, as is this LO! You will be a beautiful bride and I know you will have a wonderful wedding! Wow... amazing LO and idea!
