Almost Mrs. Webb or Bridal Brain
 Invitations. RSVPs. How big should the dance floor be? Will a sandwich and a half be enough for everyone? Will people drink more bourbon or beer? What color linens should we reserve? Would it be cheaper just to buy them? Has anyone ever supplied their entire reception through e-bay? Why is my mother going crazy? I had no idea my aunt was OCD. Does anyone know Porky and Minnie Tinnel? They are coming and they sent us a china set. Do we have to have flowers on the tables at the rehearsal dinner? What if not everyone rents a car, should we just go ahead and reserve an extra bus for guests? Do we need more local goodies for the welcome bags? Who came up with welcome bags? Will people be disappointed that the hotel does not have a pool? I guess I should hire some babysitters to keep an eye on the children. Did I write Dr. and Mrs. Gregory a thank you note? Will we really use crystal double old fashions? My arms are not going to get any more toned than they are now, might as well eat the ice cream. Does this dress make my back bulge? Are all the groomsmen available for the rehearsal? Does it matter if they aren't? Can our band learn the Coldplay song for the ceremony? Will my Mom and Dad's new wife at least get a long that day? I wish my grandpa could be there? I wish John's Mom could have made it for this? We'll miss her so much. She'll be there in spirit though. I'm so thrown by the fact that my Dad's first wife is coming. She sent us some of our silver, too. I think I need to talk to her that day. I'd like to get to know her actually. How many Krispy Kreme donuts will we need? I need to call my cousin and see if he will say a blessing. I hope John called Lammy and asked him to read the poem. Will people mind that they have to carry their chairs from the ceremony to the reception area? It's not that far. Pray for sunshine, pray for sunshine, pray for sunshine. I'm so excited that we have seven flower girls. They will look adorable. I love John. What a sweetheart. I have never been happier. I'm so glad to be marrying him. I bet I cry. But maybe I won't. I'd like to say a prayer. I'd like everyone to hold hands with the person next to them and then I'd like to say a prayer. We used to do that at church. I guess we didn't hold hands but everyone would greet their neighbor. I loved that part. I think I'll add that to the ceremony. I'm so lucky. I'm proud to become a part of John's family. My Mom is so happy to be gaining a son in law. Oh my goodness, I'm almost Mrs. Webb.
