Ok, I officially had my first freak-out moment as a bride-to-be. I was literally in tears last night in bed, worrying about none other than the wedding date and venue. Didn't take long, eh? I am such a girl sometimes.
This past weekend, I received a good tip from a running buddy to stop waiting and definitely jump head first into booking a venue, because, you know, Austin's
kind of a neat little town, and I guess October/November is
sort of a pretty time of year for a wedding.
Not really taking her too seriously, I casually emailed 5 or so venues, just to check their rates and availability for the fall. Lo and behold, wouldn't ya know, Fall Saturdays for most places are all booked! Completely! I mean, honestly, I still feel a little offended. Don't these people know I have a wedding to plan?
So of course, I automatically flip into official freak-out mode. OFOM. Let's call it OFOM, since clearly that switch is liable to get switched a few times over the next 10 months. I immediately emailed 10 more venues to get a feel for availability and am still waiting to hear back from most.
Wish me luck.
In the meantime, enjoy my little image up top, the Google photo result of "official freak-out mode."
