Busy day with wedding preparations. I tried on my dresses with my heels and found they are still way too long. No time to hem them, and no sewing machine set up here. We decided to try to find a tailor and got lucky. Ms. Ramirez of A&L Tailor Shop is doing my hems and will have them ready tomorrow. Was similarly lucky to find Elliot's Flower Shop got in all the flowers I need to make fabulous bouquets for the bridal party. Mia picked up her gown and bridal jewelry from I Do, I Do. We spent the afternoon putting together the wildly bright and colorful silk centerpieces for the Hyatt reception. Kim Leinker, Mia's nurse friend and bridesmaid, spent the day helping to wash containers, glue oasis, pour rocks and cut wire stems. She helped Mia organize and code the place cards for food dishes. Ann Fisher joined us, too. Matt transported the nineteen arrangements to the Hyatt where they were rolled in on carts by valets. I ironed the velvet capelets tonight after sewing on the Nordic pewter clasps last night into the wee hours. Mia and Andrew packed for their ski honeymoon.
