Hello ladies,
It's been way to long since I updated this blog (thank you, maman, for reminding me...and melanie for putting some pressure on me :-) (PS: Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii melanie, lets catch up soon..or at least leave each other messages on voice mail!).
So, what has happened in the past month. Well not that much, and it is a little worriesome. Luckily we now have an official wedding planner for the wedding in Tennessee (and of course, we have Mama Denuit, the best planner ever for our wedding in Belgium ;-))
I think I might be the worst nightmare for my wedding planner in TN, though (and perhaps for the one in BE as well, but that has most probably be the case for the past 31 years!)...here is a scene from our first conversation (sorry, Astrid for the repeat):
"So how many bridemaids are you going to have" "Euh, just one, my witness, we are not much
into bridesmaids etc..." "Only one???, so what do you want her towear? Did you think about a style, a color?"
"Euh not really, she canpretty much wear whatever she wants" "WHATTT??? So how am I going to
do to assort her flowers to her dress?" Me: "Flowers?? Does she need flowers?" :-D
As you can see I was probably not made to be a bride...
Other than not having to worry about the music, the flowers, the cake, the photographer (we have one picked out- joehoe!!!!), I also just (FINALLY!) finsihed our save-the-dates. I decided to use my long lost drawing skills (or lack thereof) to make them myself...you'll see how it turned out. I just need to print them and they are all set to go. So watch that mailbox of yours!
What else, what else...oh yes, sometime earlier this month I had a chose-your-wedding-dress-session in SF with Charlene, MC and Caro...hehe...after trying out 6 dresses (there was a max of 8 dresses), I got so fed-up with the "hold your breath...just a little more...there you go!" that I decided to swith the last 2 dresses for an Italian lunch. Probably not the best plan to actually fit in a dress, but eating pasta is sooooooooo much higher on my things-i-enjoy-to-do-on-a-saturday-list than buying wedding dresses.
Unfortunately, I still don't have a dress (for neither of the weddings, in fact) and Zach told me jeans was not an option. Snif!
Voila, for the update...hope the next one will be a little faster
