OK, I definitly suck but I needed a desperate break from even thinking about wedding stuff for a few days.  Last weekend was exhausting.  I had no idea what trying on wedding dresses was going to be like, and after 3 hours and 2 seperate stores all I wanted was a nap.  I did learn a number of things about the dress I want. 

• I <3 Sweetheart neck lines
• I want Ivory, not for any reason other than it looked better than white on me
• As much as I was in love with the shorter wedding dresses they make me look like I should be going to my Sweet 16 and not my Wedding
• I'm going with A-line
• And I want something vintage looking, not really sure what yet

 

 

AlsoI tried on about a million more dresses than these 4, these just happen to be my favorites.  The first two are from David's Bridal, and the second 2 are from Alfred Angelo's.


I'll be dress shopping again on Halloween with a couple of my ladies.  I've found a few dresses I really like online that fit my new rules and  they'll hopefully be available to try on, or at least something super similar.  Then that night, for the first time in many years instead of a Halloween Party I'll be attending a fancy restaurant to celebrate a friend's birthday. 

But that's all for wedding stuff today.  I'm feeling bombarded and fatigued by other people's wants for my wedding and opinions, so I'm taking as many breaks as I possibly can. 

Other things:  We went to see Where the Wild Things Are last weekend.  And though the monsters were extraordinary, the added non-sense material did nothing but make me wish the movie was as short as the animated version I'd watch as a child.  We also finished the True Blood first season, finally, yes I know we are very behind.  I honestly think Netflix is one of the best inventions ever.  No only do they continuously send us one disc at a time to watch, but we also stream things over the internet and through the xbox.  I've been catching up on The Tudors, a showtime show about Henry VIII and his family and drama.  I love this show, I've been facinated by the Tudors since I was in about 5th grade and we learned about them in science class.  They're whole family did so many crazy things and had such an impact on the world, things that last even today.  I mean really, Henry had 6 wives, divoriced 2, beheaded 2, one died and one out lived him.  On top of that he had a ton of sex, like all the time, seperated England from the Catholic Church and had the of the best known children to ever rule over England. Ok, I'm a nerd.  But it's better than a soap opera.  Well that's plenty of me being a giant nerd today.  Happy planning to all of you.
