Bridesmaid dresses!
Emma, Janelle and I went to David's Bridal last night and looked at several dress options. This time I got to sit back and take notes for a while, rather than try dresses on. I also pretended that I worked there by running back to the racks to find sizes.
Now, originally I thought we would make it shorter dresses that were all the same color and fabric, but of different styles. This all changed, however, when we found this great dress that looked good on both girls and that I loved. So, now everyone has to wear the same thing because I'm mean. (And it's a longer dress because my dress is too formal for shorter bridesmaid dresses?!? Too many rules in wedding planning!)
Here's the kicker: it's being discontinued! So, Michelle and Megan need to get sized and place their order ASAP. Fortunately, they both said that this shouldn't be a problem. Phew. I always have to pick something difficult, don't I? Though, the second choice needed to be ordered ASAP too because it was so popular it was going to take forever to get in. Either way, we needed to act fast!
So everyone, prepare to be wowed by my lovely bridesmaids.
In other news: we got the DJ ball rolling, and hopefully that will be all set within the next two weeks!

Dress shopping
Yes, I do already have my dress at this time. And my shoes, veil, blusher veil, tiara...tiara?!?! What did I let them talk me into? I guess I'm supposed to look like a fairy princess on my wedding day, or so the fairy tales tell us...unless you're reading an original Grimms, but I digress.
On Tuesday Emma, Janelle and I are going to go look at bridesmaids dresses. This will be entertaining for me, as I won't have to be left in the dressing room in my underwear while the woman runs to go get me a different style or size. This time I get to give opinions and do little to no work myself. Excellent.
And of course, the color is peridot. I used to think it was light green, but we have to be proper here: peridot. Perry-dough. Lovely.
Can I have a fairy godmother just wave her wand and plan this all for me? I mean, I AM going to have a tiara, why can't I have a fairy godmother? Heh.
