Day 309 - Party Rock was in the house last night!

The party went off wonderfully! :)
The theme, of course, was bridal fugly!
I had a fugly lace dress (old school) with homemade lace buttons that were so small and annoying it's amazing that this was legitimately someone's dress at some point! 



























One of my friend did my hair, it was supposed to be dreadful and dramatic but it ended up kind of nice just not my usual style :p

Wow can you see the size difference between the two of us here?! Oh my gentle giant! 

Terrible picture of me but I use it to show my over the top make up. I learned my lesson, when wearing a full body lace dress....don't wear metal chained beads 0_0 nearly killed myself on several occasions! Oh and David was trying to make our best man look at my ring which I had been attempting to have him notice. 

Everyone's costumes were awesome (I should know, I helped to pick them out and even sewed up a few of them ;p ) However, not everyone would want to be on a blog and so I will only show a few ;)

Our best man wore a red silk-like cowboy ... pj style top :p
Why do people insist on "eating pictures"? :p 

At one point he ended up wearing the beads apparently. Oh and taking pictures with two cameras :p
Not quite sure what we were doing here... oh yes, she was showing the multiple layers of her dress and I said, "I have multiple layers too!!! Then for whatever reason our multiple layers...erm...umm... humped each other? I'm not certain on this but take from it what you will. :p 

Also not sure what I'm doing here either.... I swear drinking was uninvolved in this party! Promise... my best guess is someone compared the color of her red hair to candy and I was implying she was tasty.... I do not remember this happening but it is my best guess


Even the beast got into play with her lovely "flower girl" ensemble. 
Beast getting ready for the party! 

Once everyone had noticed I'd received my ring back from being sized (after losing all my post-baby weight) I then showed it off to everyone. 
 Of course, as per usual in my line of work, the party was interrupted by some drunk (not my guest) who decided to jump a fence (not mine) and break his leg (also not mine :p ) and buzzed someone's apartment (not mine) and someone let him in (not me!) and as a result he became my bloody (literally bloody, bleeding) problem. Fortunately it was late in the night so we just bid our guests adieu and proceeded to get in our landlord scrubs. ;p Ignoring that, the party was so much fun. I should get engaged again so we can have another!!!
And the rest is history!

Day 297 - Stress melts away

On days like today, when work and work related stressers are piling up around me. When I am completely overwhelmed by those around me and stuff I need to get done but don't have time to do. I simply turn on my wedding playlist, close my eyes and remind myself that in 316 days I will marry my best friend and love of my life.

Within moments nothing else matters ... until I snap back to reality and realize I must wait 316 days! Drat!

With 315 days to go I have removed the password from most pages on our wedding website and it is up and operational. Although, for security reasons, some pages will remain password protected.

Once the deadline passes for RSVPs the whole page will become password protected again and the RSVP tab will be removed.

You know you're emotionally drained when a simple guestbook comment from your best man on your wedding website can bring tears to your eyes. 

Some days it feels a million years away, others it feels like it's around the corner. ♥ I wish it were tomorrow! I would marry David today, yesterday and everyday!
