Flowers, Dress, and Tuxes

I’m sorry that it has been so long! I have been JAMMED full of Wedding stuff! I actually started having nightmares about my dress arriving late.

My mother and I were able to get my dress ordered two saturdays ago. It should be coming in on the 10th or March. So, the “big dog” is over with. When we were walking out of David’s Bridal I was so relieved! It did end up costing quite a bit more then we had planned. This was because we had found a sale on the dress that I wanted, but the sale was just for the larger sizes. How LAME is that?! The BIGGER dresses are less expensive when it take MORE material to make it! UGH! I hate marketing loopholes!

Luke believes that he has found the Tuxedos that he would like him and his Groomsmen to wear. I am not allowed to see he tux, as well as, he is not allow to see my dress. I think it is fair that way.

The flowers have not been paid for but they have been chosen. I can not wait for everyone to see the amazing bouquet I am getting. I have decided not to preserve the flowers though. The biggest reason is that the Star Gazer Lilies that I will be using will turn Purple.... They will not match my colors if they do. I think that I am going to take really good photos and then recreate it in fake flowers. The preserved flowers look like fake flowers anyways. Then I can have my Dad make me a shadow box frame and I know everything will fit. Also, if the box ever get hurt it will not destroy the flowers inside.

There are a few things that I need help deciding on;

How to wear my hair.

What to get my Bridesmaids

Heels vs Flats

and where to have the Dinner (the night before, for immediate family)
