The List

Being unemployed makes me not appreciate the weekend :( I hope I get this job I've interviewed for because I can feel myself going crazy pouring over every single aspect of our wedding online!

I've decided to write a little list of what I've booked/where I am at with all the planning:
  • Dress: booked and ordered, still waiting to hear back from Brides by Design but I was told they would call when the dress arrived.
  • Flowers: I'm constantly changing my mind about what to have (currently contemplating bright pink roses or yellow/white for centrepieces). I have paid a deposit to Flowertopia and won't be having any bouquets because I'm making button ones. I'm also making the boys' boutonniere as well.
  • Music: 2 DJs have been picked - just have to break the news to them that we don't want flashing lights/colourful spotlights every where.
  • Colour scheme: dependent on flowers but at the moment, cream/ivory, tinges of brown/gold, deep/light pinks.
  • Hair: booked (still scouring the internet for photos and kind of wishing I had longer hair!)
  • Make Up: in process of booking, I'm excited about airbrushing and thinking I'll definitely need some false lashes
  • Cars: we've got the girls' limo and our getaway car sorted and the boy is working on getting a limo for the boys
  • Venue: booked and I can't wait to go back and do a food tasting which will happen whilst the boy's grandparents are down from Denmark
  • Presents: I've bought the bridesmaid presents and a present for the boy. We're going cheap and writing really nice letters to our parents (because they're chipping in what's the point of spending their own money on them!) The groomsmen still need their presents but again that's for the boy to sort out
  • Honeymoon: tickets to Vietnam booked, we need to organise visas and then start booking accomodation
I can't think of anything else at the moment, no doubt I've forgotten something which is always the case ;)

My Box

So I got my box of goodies from www.feather.com.au YAY!



3 different kinds of tulle (2 ivory (one with those spots) and 1 black), an ivory flower for my hair, 2 brooches 1 of which I'm not too fussed on cos it's a gross gold but looked prettier on the site and FEATHERS!!! I wish I'd ordered more feathers because my button bouquet really needs that something extra.


In other sad news the boy failed one of his exams. Luckily he can do summer school but I always get scared when stuff like that happens because our whole future is based on him doing awesome. Then I feel evil because I'm a woman I can be independent and bring home the bacon. But all I really want is to have lots of babies and then when they get to school hopefully figure out what the hell I want to do career wise!


Hopefully the trip to Bali in January is still on because we need to get away but if it's not we can always go somewhere later on in the year. Plus we have the Vietnam honeymoon to look forward to YAY.


On a more wedding side note: people have already started talking wedding registries with me and it's weird...I have no idea what I want let alone if I even want one. The one thing I do know is I want a gun to pick stuff out with, I blame American movies for that!
