77 days!
Posted on April 2, 2009
Last weekend I took some of my family with me to David’s Bridal to try on dresses with the flower girl. Jordan (my niece) was so excited to go try on dresses. And she was so adorable when we got her there! I picked out two dresses at first for her to try on. I had already been looking online and narrowed it down to a few designs. The first one was very cute on her but it was a little too simple and made her look too old. So we put her in the second dress which had much more of a “princess” look to it. It fit her perfectly with just enough room for her to grow in the next 3 months, and she looked so stinking adorable in it. So we got it! She was so excited to take it home with her that day, and she loves her pink bow!
Right after that we got some lunch and then went to Micheal’s to look at flowers for our bouquets. I took my aunt with me because she is awesome at making flower arrangements. I was really looking for some pink and white daisies, but everywhere else I had looked didn’t really have anything that looked very good. We found some individual stems that looked pretty decent when we got there but as we walked around some more we found some pre-made clusters that looked very real. They had the perfect shade of pink and each cluster had just the right amount. My aunt is going to cut them and re-arrange them to look more like bouquets, so I am pretty excited about that. And the best part of all of it was that we got all the flowers and the supplies for $20! Pretty awesome, if you ask me.
I have been looking for a tiara in all kinds of places and haven’t found anything that I like so far. So Linda and I decided to look online. We checked ebay and I found some that I really liked. It took a while for us to narrow it down to one but we finally did it and we bid on it Friday. We won it and it is here! I haven’t had a chance to see it yet because it’s at Linda’s house, but I am really excited!
We are working on finishing up the invitations this weekend. Tomorrow, actually. They are turning out really great! I’m definitely happy that we decided to do them ourselves.
Things just keep coming along. Linda and I still have to look more at making my veil. Previous attempts have not gone so well. Karen and I are also going to work on getting the flowers arranged soon! Check back for more updates and be watching for your invites!
