Bridal Fair






And In No Way Relating To Weddings...

Meet Master Bruce and Catwoman. They complete me...except when Master Bruce gets poo on his neck.
So with half the wedding planned *just not paid for ;)* things are going a lot slower than before...hehe I still spend 2-3 hours a day talking on the phone with vendors, going over catalogs,websites and books though. Yesterday we found our bridesmaids dresses! We made a day trip to David's Bridal in Layton and killed about two hours looking at colors, styles and such. I've been telling my bridesmaids that they don't need matching dresses, just the same color...funny because they picked the same dress anyways. They looked lovely... I suppose I should introduce my wedding party eh? I'm lucky enough to have two maids-of-honor.

Izzie
and I have been friends since we were 13. I'm not sure
I would have survived school let alone puberty without her spunky sense of humor and style. She's the one that has to listen to incessant wedding chatter, which she can't fully escape since she lives with me... This picture was taken at my Disney princess themed birthday party she threw me. One of our favorite past-times is to dress up, make some freakazoid expression and take best friend pictures. My living room is riddled with about twenty of them. She loves kittens and hates doing the laundry as much as me.

And then we have this sinfully beautiful lady *I totally facebook stalked this picture*. This is Makinley. She married my brother, Tyler two years ago shortly after orchestrating the blind date between Kev and I. She's been such an amazing friend. I go over to her house for breakfast and before we know it its 11pm and my brother is shooing me out of the house. She's been completely indispensable with all the plans. She helped me pick the colors, centerpieces and other decorations not to mention she's letting me stash all my wedding crap in her basement. Love her!

So back to the dresses... David's Bridal has an option on their website to create a draft of your wedding party. Its kinda cute...if you ignore the funny looking people you can pick from. Kev's looks like he just tooted and the others are smelling the stinky.... Take a look.


This is really more of an idea board so I could see how the colors would look, but I kinda like it. I have an appointment on Thursday to look at tuxes. Kevin is so helpful. I asked him what I should look for and he said something black that includes pants and a jacket...this was almost as helpful as him telling me that for the guest book we should go to Walmart and pick up a spiral notebook and a sharpie.
