Where has the time gone...?

Okay, so we are no longer "Just Married".

Jon and I have officially been married 5 months today!

Wow.

Where does the time go? The past five months have gone by almost as fast as the actual wedding! 

10 Days Later... Now What?

I cannot believe it.


I am married. We are married.

I have a husband. And I am now a wife!! 

My First Bridal Shower

...Ever!

And I don't just mean the first one that was thrown for me.

I have never been to a bridal shower before. (I have been to a few baby showers though, kind of odd..)

But this shower was for me! :)

Looking for a 'Little White Dress' ...am I being too picky?

I have decided that I love my wedding dress, but it is rather large (long) and I think it might be better if I have another option to change in to during the reception. The only problem is, I am kind of picky...

I Can't Not Work At Work...

I love the field I work  in. I enjoy my job. I am okay with my company. But I hate that I can't "screw around" occasionally... at least not without others noticing.

Changing Wedding Colors....halfway through the engagement..

We got engaged December 2010 & our wedding is April 2012.

Not too long after we got engaged I have come up with what I thought was the "Perfect" color scheme: Black & White 'Traditions' Damask with hints of Pink (all pink flowers).

Wedding Dress Shopping… Round Two!

Okay, so we had an appointment at 10:00 this morning at Alfred Angelo...we were there until 1:30pm. I think I tried on 10 different dresses, then tried 3 of them on a second time. This decision definitely will not be an easy one.

Last Saturday I went to Alfred Angelo and David's Bridal (total nightmare!). I brought my mom, sister (Julee), and Jon (yes, I brought my fiancé with me to look at dresses). I thought I'd narrowed it down to a ball gown silhouette, until today.

I now like 3 A-line gowns (two are slimmer than the other), but I still keep going back to the ball gown look. This is so difficult!

Things I know for a fact that I want:
Long train (nothing shorter than a chapel length), ruching or serious decor on the bodice, sweetheart neckline, an off-white color (ivory, diamond white, or almond) and I'd love to have some form of decor on the train itself.I don't think I'm asking for too much.
Ugh, this wedding thing is not going to be easy.

I only have 455 days left.
