Wedding Planning

I bought my wedding dress this past sunday. Obviously, not this one, but I thought this photo was neat when I saw it. I bought it in mcallen and it was the last one that I tried on. It is ivory in colour and the veil matches in design with the dress. A bitter sweet moment for me. Felt so right, but felt so painful at the same time. My mother wasn't there. The most important person in the world was not there to see me. I know she is heaven looking down on me, but I can't help and be but selfish and want her here with me. I know, I know. Everything that she was going through wan't fair for her to go through. She endured so much... She lived in so much pain. I miss her so much. I miss her warmthness, her love, her presence....

It added up to a total of 900 dollars and that really burnt a hole in our pockets, but hey you only do get married once. Not going bankrupt though, but I am planning to make our wedding memorable. I still need to set up the photography. I've been working on my party favors and I'm still undecided on the type of flowers for my bouquet. I had originally chosen a water lily, but since the water lily is white, it might not make a good contrast with the ivory dress..I don't want to be anal, but little things like that bother me sometime...I suppose I am anal. HA HA HA.

So many things to do...
So little time.
Toodles.

I miss all the hooplah surrounding preparations for a wedding, and then again I don't miss it, does that make sense.

Best of luck to you. Keep us updated.
