Dresses are in!

Emma and I picked up the bridesmaid dresses today. It definitely was a two person job. It required us to be one on each side of the car, one pushing and the other pulling. Gotta love it.

I'm happy because they came in properly. I was worried because I had a phlebotomist tell me once that her bridesmaids' dresses came in grey when they were supposed to be pink with a grey sash. This is what she tells me to calm me down while she draws my blood. Honestly.

Now I have three dresses hanging in my closet and I can't close my nice sliding door. I am afraid something will come out and get me during the night. Yes, I am 22.

Edit: I got my closet closed. I was inspired after having a nightmare about a flesh-eating virus that may have been caused by having the closet open, or from a discussion about the book Feed in my Young Adult Resources class.

Thoughts

The bridesmaid dresses are in. After all that "hurry up and order now!" stuff, they are in within two weeks. (Even though they told me it would be til mid-March) Apparently when the store called they asked that I pick them up within 14 days. Do you suppose this is because I left my shoes and tiara there for ages without picking them up? Heh. Clearly they love me at David's Bridal. Especially since I left my strapless bra there when I tried on wedding dresses. That was a fun thing to have to retrieve the following day. "Um, excuse me. I left my bra here..." Oy.

In other news, this new batch of invitation samples is much better. In fact, we may have a winner.
And we got a DJ contract to fill out. Apparently we need to know our songs right now. First dance, etc. I thought we could pick that almost at the last minute. Guess not. So, we've got some thinking to do.

Cross your fingers for me that the dresses are the sizes and colors that they are supposed to be!!

DJ services!

The DJ service just called me back and we're booked with them! Yay!

In other news, I sent away for invitation samples and they were ugly. Back to the drawing board (well, I already sent away for more...)

And, I am updating that delightful general information entry as things are added to the wedding (ex, I updated it when Byron agreed to be in the wedding, and I am about to update it with our DJ) So, that is a great place to look for general information! (Original Post date: January 21)
