Dreaming Big

So, I'm not sure what's gotten into me. But I'm suddenly planning, wanting, and craving big things.

Harpist, organist, a full choir in robes, a candy buffet, multiple pieces of music, surprises for our parents, etc. etc. etc.

I'm making the wedding planning more complicated than it needs to be.

Why?

Go, Us!

It's been awhile since I've posted here because things have been so busy. But I thought I'd take a moment to update. While I know there's still a lot we need to do, we have accomplished great things!

I just picked up my wedding dress. It's beautiful. But I can't get a bra to work with it. Big bummer! I want a low back, plunge bra with straps. Is that too hard to ask for?!

We finally decided on a bridesmaid dress!

We found a location for the Bridal Brunch, Personal Shower, and Rehearsal Dinner.

I won't even compare with my To-Do list right now because it's massive. Ugh!!

We've got almost all the details for my first shower figured out. I just need to finalize the guest list. Oh, guest list... NOT something I like thinking about!

Oh - we also have someone who will be coordinating all the reception food (except the cake). Score!

We do officially have the ceremony location booked, the reception location booked, and the pastor who is marrying us is booked.

Woot woot!

Crash

Tonight we hit a wall. I'm frustrated. I'm really hoping I will wake up in a better mood than what I am going to bed with.

Hmmm...

We have had so much trouble agreeing on a bridesmaid dress we like. Yes, my groom wants to be involved in decisions about the wedding. I'm going to the store tomorrow to further investigate another option.

I also feel as if I should be doing dozens of other things. But I'm not. Hmmm, maybe it's time to consult the wedding checklist.

Tomorrow my matron of honor and I are going to a class that will (hopefully) give us ideas for DIY stationery (programs, invitations, response cards, etc.). Hope it's worth our time and money!
