#305

It's November, nearly 10 days in already.  Goodness, Christmas will be here before I know it, and I'm definitly not ready.  It's right about time to start figuring out that stuff, but in the mean time many more things have fallen into place with the wedding preperations. 


I've picked a dress, and though I'd love more than anything to post it here I'm terrified that FH will stumble upon the pic.  I will post some slightly similar pics so that you can get the idea.  It's very much a 1930's Glam style dress, with a modern twist of course. 




This one's from Vera Wang :)

This also means (to me at least) that I can get away with no flowers.  Like any girl I love flowers, they're pretty and smell delightful, but they're very expensive, especially when you throw in the word Wedding.  So feather's it is, and I'm so very excited.

Something kinda like this but with reds and purples.  I'm really excited about putting these and the bouts together because i think they're gonna turn out just gorgeous.  And then finally the centerpieces have completely changed.  I have no idea what I'm going to do with all my fluffy balls I was going to turn into flowers, maybe they'll become something with the favors.  Martha Stewart gave me an amazing idea from one of her Halloween decorations. 
 
So I'm going to make something similar to the table top ones.  Painted black with gliter all over them.  I'm also very excited about these.  I think they're just perfect for the theme and are going to be super cheap to make.  
 
Also we have our engagement party this weekend.  Which is super weird for me.  My mom is making a super big deal out of it, and I'm not even sure why she decided we're having one, there wasn't one for my brother as far as I know.  I think they're being weird cause I live out of state from all of them, and they feel like they're missing out on stuff, but I don't know what she could be missing out on, we went dress shopping together, and I wouldn't have involved her in the location or any or these other decisions I'm making even if I was at home.  
 
 
I feel like we've made good headway on the big stuff though.  The food at the place will be easy, so we need a photographer, a cake, officiant, bridesmaid dresses, rings, well really there's lots more to do, but I feel like the big stressful things are good and set.
