Bride not so Beautiful

This past Sunday my MOH, Kelley and I went to Bride Beautiful to look mainly for shoes. I also am still looking for a purse, garter, and some other misc. accessories. I had heard good things about this store, and after looking on their website, was really excited to visit. I walked in, and my mouth dropped open. There were people EVERYWHERE. I don't really like crowds, and it was a madhouse. I immediately froze in the doorway with a panicked look on my face. I stepped into the store and just kind of stood there in awe of what was going on around me. I said out loud "why are there so many people here" and a random girl at the shoe table (later to be my shoe enemy) said "they are having a major sale". I immediately thought to myself "surely not this many people are getting married".
But then I remember how most brides are...most people take up to a year or longer to plan their wedding. So, these were the Spring of 2009 brides who were in there trying to find the perfect dress. I just wanted to find shoes--closed toed for the winter. Apparently I should have been shopping for those six months ago because I'm having a hard time finding any. So I went over to the shoe table and started looking around. My shoe enemy kept cutting in front of me to look at the shoes that were out for people to try on. She had brought her dress with her to try to match the color and was taking up way too much space. I gave it about five minutes, turned around and left. I've now decided that the best thing to do is to take a full day off of work and get all the remaining accessories in one outing. Hopefully the stores won't be as crowded on a week day.

Tuxedos and Rehearsal Dinner---Check!

After many different vest/tie combinations, the groomsmen attire has been picked out. I can't wait to see Warren in his tuxedo. So, groomsmen, it's time to get fitted at Men's Wearhouse. We are also putting a deposit down at Wildfire Grill for the rehearsal dinner. I'm so glad we are getting things checked off the list. Click here to see the menu:

Countdown

Dresses are ready!

Just called New Natalie's and the bridesmaid dresses will arrive this Friday (see pic above). I can't wait to pick them up and see how they look on the girls. My dress will be ready in two to three weeks, and my mom and I are going shopping for her dress tomorrow night. I'm going to try to get a few wedding related errands done this weekend. This month will get busy towards the end of the month as bridal shower and wedding invites will be going out. Wedding invitations will be in the mail in about three weeks---CRAZY!!! I'm still getting the question: Are you excited? Yes, I'm still incredibly excited about marrying Warren. We make a great team.
