Decisions Decisions....

Unless I am asking him weather he wants a cupcake or a chocolate bar my dear FiancĂ© seems to be an opinion-less drone these days..especially when it comes to wedding planning!. He was all gung ho at the beginning It was nice to have someone as excited as I, is it possible all my wedding jibber jabber has worn him out?. truthfully, I wouldn't blame him...I don't know how many times i can change my mind about two different shades of pink?!.

Our venue is so versatile i could put almost any idea I had into it and it would work, the real problem is not all of my ideas work together...taking a peak into the "decor" section of my wedding binder you would think I was planning maybe three or four different weddings, which is why I could really use my mans input but of course he likes all of them....as long as there is going to be cake he will be happy.

When I picture our wedding I see pinks, purples, silver and glitter elegantly done of course (he knew what kind of girl I was when he proposed hes comfortable enough with his manhood to have a sparkly wedding lol). Tall centerpieces and tons of twinkle lights oh and tulle cant forget that!. When I picture my wedding Pictures (ya weird I know) I see Vintage a birdcage veil, 1950's inspired bridesmaid dresses and the colours of the era pastel pink and a teal green, my candy buffet would fit perfectly into this vision!. Then there is the outdoor wedding....something i gave up on when we booked our hall but I wont get into that as it will only make me doubt our decision to have an indoor wedding.

I think at this point "we" are leaning more towards the silver,purple and pink color scheme...but well see.
                                          Loving the use of different shades of pink and purple here!

Dear Diary.....

I have decided to start a blog to document my wedding planning and to talk about the only thing that is on my mind the last few weeks without driving my friends and family insane. so far I have gotten most of my hints and tips on wedding planning from forums, websites and other peoples blogs so I figured I would contribute my journey to the world wide web.


Rob and I have been together for two years, we moved quickly from being friends to shacking up together. It was pretty clear from the beginning he made me happy and I him. Rob proposed on march 19th 2010 and I have been planning my wedding since that day, changing my mind on everything at least two or three....maybe seven times a week. everything I wanted my wedding to be at the beginning has changed and then changed back, the one thing I have managed to keep the same is my wedding party I have three bridesmaids Celeste (one of my besties), Kelsey (my younger sister), and Melissa (my older sister (who is also planning her own wedding)), then Elizabeth as my Maid of Honor (my oldest friend more like family to me)


In the few months I have been engaged I have learned a lot about myself, family, friends and wedding planning. I am way more indecisive then i ever realized, I am the first of my friends to get married so my experienced help is limited, No one in mine or future husbands emediate family has had a wedding so no one understands just how long it takes to plan one....hhmm this could be an interesting ride.
