Wedding anxiety

OK, it's only 9 days away now. My wedding day is coming up far too quickly. When did it turn from being weeks away to just over a week away!? The nerves are totally kicking in now, the not sleeping properly, and then having wierd dreams once I am asleep, the staying up late checking I've not forgotten anything...
We finished honeymoon shopping a few days ago, my mum and I finished the last of our to do list jobs last week which was pinning the RSPB pin badges onto the name place cards and writing inside them what each guest has chosen to eat. I've had my final final dress fitting just yesterday in Bowness on Windermere at Julia Tasker Bridal (photo attached of The amazing Julia and I from my last fitting in her lovely shop added at the end of this post!)
Jason's collecting his and the guys hire suits at the weekend, I've got my final (part 3 of 3) hen do out in my home town of Peterborough.... It's all getting so very real now and I also failed to mention I keep checking the weather and consequently upsetting myself as I’m so worried it’ll rain when we’re meant to be having our outside ceremony. I (think) want nothing more than to be able to have our ceremony outside on their gazebo overlooking the lake and mountains but it's all depending on whether the rain holds off for me! So much sunshine for weeks and weeks leading up to it but apparently it’s all gonna change and go all grotty. But I guess I’ve got to be realistic, and also at the same time just hope that the forecast changes or the weather man is wrong! Or if it does rain, I’m still marrying my best friend in amazing settings and I’m sure my photographer Georgi Mabee will get the most incredible shots come rain or shine. I just wish I hadn’t had my heart set on that gazebo and this part wouldn’t be so nerve wrenching!
I've ordered some dairy free blondies and brownies to be delivered to my room for the morning of my wedding, I'm terrible at eating in the morning so I'm making sure I've got something to eat that won't make me feel poorly! Thank you to Babycakes bakery! I'll probably order up hash brown beans and toast too!
I also keep thinking wow this is it. (especially when I'm all tucked up in bed at night battling my insomnia) Your only time getting married have you included everything you wanted to? Is that really how you want your hair? Is there any little touches you've left out? Do you want to worry about the weather some more?

P.s I will be doing a blog post about my hen dos, (spa with my mum and Amsterdam with the girls was amazing!) the wedding and the honeymoon in July when I’m back. Then it’ll be onto moving!
Doesn’t Julia make me look tall!  She’s so cute and petite and a super lovely talented lady too! I’m gonna miss my dress fittings!
