New biggest headache: Standing at Safeway with the florist, trying to decide if it's okay that the actual price they are charging is $100 more than the price they quoted; not being able to connect with the bride or her parents, because she's graduating; making the executive decision that it is okay; trying to pay with a check from said parents, but Safeway refusing it; trying to pay with my own credit card, but Safeway refusing it; finally paying with my back-up credit card; receiving a phone call from my back-up credit card company, saying they've detected unusual activity; calling my main credit card company to see why my card was declined, only to discover that they thought it was unusual for me to spend $650 at a grocery store, too, so they put a hold on my card; and eventually getting both my cards taken care of while I was supposed to be making chocolate covered strawberries.
BUT...the flowers are paid for, the strawberries are made, my credit is flowing once again, and the bride was celebrated last night at her bachelorette party. So, can I really complain?
As I was falling asleep last night, I got the first little sinking feeling in my stomach that I might not be able to pull this thing off. Still, God has been gracious to allow me to enjoy this whole process, and I think, "what other wedding planner gets to go get pedicures with the bride, and go to the bachelorette party?" It is such a privilege and a delight.
