I am just 10 days away from my wedding and I’m finally starting to get a little nervous!

Although I must admit I haven't really been going by a legit "to-do" list like most brides, I think I've been doing pretty well keeping everything organized and getting things done.
The time is coming for me to start my seating chart and while I was planning to do it the old school way of laying out my RSVP cards on a table and mapping it out, my fiance (he's way...
