We are in the midst of wedding planning craziness.
It’s not so bad this time.
We booked a photographer yesterday, and she is wonderful. She’s going to shoot an engagement session for us at a park in a few weeks, and I’m so excited that I had dreams about it all night last night. (After I spent an hour on the computer looking at fun dresses for the shoot.)
Today, we meet with a florist.
Yesterday, I tried on the first round of wedding dresses. It’s a bit surreal, stepping into a wedding dress. It’s one thing to see them on models in photos… entirely different to see how the actually do transform you. I fell in love with the first dress I tried on, but since I’ve only looked at one dress shop, I wasn’t ready to commit to it yet. (Allure Bridals 8550… can’t link to it because their site is silly, but you could look it up if you’re bored.) Then the photographer told me yesterday that she can’t count the number of times brides have told her that despite trying on a thousand dresses, they eventually went back to the first dress at the first shop.
Everything gets carried away so quickly… our small, inexpensive wedding has grown to several tens of thousands of dollars and 130 people… and yet, I don’t mind. Not really, anyway.
202 days to go.
Did you go with Allure 8550? That is the gown I choose
