Bridezillas

OMG...so I am watching this Whose Wedding Is It Anyways show on Style and I can't really believe it. It's about these two sisters who decide to share their wedding in order to save money for their parents, but they have totally different styles.

But that's not the OMG part...the OMG part is that one sister is the hugest b*otch. She wants everything like a damn disco and doesn't care about what her sister wants. Like she got mad because they came out of the dressing room in their dresses at the same time. And they're from Philly, so they have that obnoxious New England accent and are just whine, whine, whine...

Makes me so hapy and proud to be a normal bride. I'm sure Joe is glad.

Vegas, Here We Come!!!

I just booked our Joint Bachelor/Bachelorette Party trip! I am sooooo excited! We decided to stay at the MGM Grand because it got good reviews and it had some awesome bars/restaurants. We booked the whole thing through Expedia, even though I started out looking on Vegas.com. On Vegas.com, you have to choose your departing and returning flight together, so I couldn't find one that had good flights on both. So, Expedia lets you choose each one individually and the price was about the same anyways.

We're going a weekend early, so the 19th through the 21st in order to be there when one of his friends is there. Plus there's not much going on then anyways, even though it's the weekend after Valentine's Day. Hopefully lots of people will be able to come. I'm going to send out a mass email here in a bit to let everyone know we've finally nailed down the date and location.

Woooohooooo!!! I just need to get my liver in order so I don't get too hungover!

New Ideas

So, I've been noticeably absent from the blogging world as I've been super busy getting out of the Army and working on school stuff. But I am back now that I am just a student with lots of time to kill.

Tonight I looked through an old wedding magazine and saw a picture of some paper garland that I love. I wanna use it behind the candy bar to really make the table stand out. Here it on this bluk party supply website:



I got some in yellow and some in white, so we'll mix it up a bit... I just have to figure out how to hang it from the ceiling since they are only 12' high and I'm sure the ceiling is higher than that. I also bought some yellow tissue paper balls to use at the rehearsal dinner, or where...just in case.



It seems a bit cheesy to use paper decorations, but I saw them in Martha Stewart Wedding magazine so it must be chic!

I need to think of other things that I still have left to do and take care of them. Here's a running list:

• Print and assemble invite and response cards
• Build escort card box
• Create and print escort cards
• Create and print table number signs
• Finish photobooth and wedding signs
• Stick labels on favor bags
• Order candy
• Order alcohol (figure out what we're doing with sour mix)
• Order stuff for and assemble guest bags
• Order stuff for and assemble bridesmaid bags
• Buy other wedding party gifts
• Choose groomsmens' outfits (and groom)
• Make beauty appointments
• Scout pre-picture location and determine any requirements (cover windows, a/c, etc...)
• Make music selections (arrrrggghhhh!!!!)
• Book honeymoon
• Book Vegas for bachelor/ette party
• Make final payment on dress and pick up
• Find bridal lingerie for underneath the dress
• Make cake tasting appt and choose cake
• Finalize linen issue with caterer

The list goes on and on!! I am so glad I still have almost months to go. Woops, actually we are nearing the 5 month mark. We're at 5 1/2 right now, I guess, so time's a tickin!
