And Again

P.S.


Can we make it look like this?

HELP HELP HELP!


What am I going to do for centerpieces? This is the colour of the linens (I know the setting is super fug) and I want some colour and some wild flowers and some ideas. Anybody? Seriously. It's a stresser. Almost as much of a stresser as all the trees around the barn we're getting married in being cut down and finding out that David thinks the barn is jank. Six. Weeks. Before. We. Get. Married.

Showers, This Time For Me


I have been led to believe that a rather groovey bridal shower is heading my way, I hear tell of invitations and occasionally someone pops up to tell me to reserve a certain day and then I hear nothing else. Last year I broke down and bought the most lovely skirt in the whole world and would like to know if it would be suitable for me to wear to this shower (I've never been to one, I had a mental health day the day of Oldest-and-Bests and no one else has gotten married, I'm the first). So if a charming Biddy (you know who you are, Mary, High-School-Bestie, Sisters Dos, Tres and Cuatro) would like to tell me if this is suitable that would be lovely. And if a charming anyone would like to build an outfit around this skirt I would give them lots and lots and lots of hugs (or a guest-post?). K. Thanks.

Accessories, Follow-Up




Remember this? I know, YUM. It's on sale for half price. And I know I don't need a bag (I'm not going to carry it anywhere, and my dress has POCKETS, for eff's sake) but it's half price. And it's effing BEAUTIFUL.


Then there were these which I bought, and am going to try with the dress on Saturday when not one, not two but THREE of my sisters are coming with me to my dress fitting. Aren't I a lucky duck!

Flowers, Veil, Hair


I don't remember where I knicked this off the interwebs but oh oh oh I so love it, It's kind of rocking my hair inspiration in a major way right now. I've been fantasizing recently about yards of tulle my grandmother wore in a crazy headpiece, wearing it tucked up underneath a curly bun for the ceremony and then just the flower during the reception. What do we's think?

Boooo

The computer is dead dead dead, hopefully due to a dead power cord, so I am using my mother-in-laws (I will not say FMIL, it's silly) and David is apparently driving an hour to Columbia to get the laptop and cord examined by a professional (living in rural Maryland sucks a lot). In the meantime, I am incommunicado.
