I apologize for being somewhat neglectful. I'm getting married in a little over two months and that plus the stress of papers and presentations (which seem to be the new favorite thing of professors) has driven me a little crazy. It's been a really great semester so far, over all. And I've been working on posts but haven't finished them. (I also apologize for flaws in the blog design. I'm getting a little frustrated with Weebly….)

1. If you make a list of priorities and uncompromisable desires, your wedding planning will be a lot smoother.
Because money is no object on this your very special day and everyone wants what the bride wants. 2. Once you make a decision, everyone will help you get it done. People are so excited about your wedding that they will sop up every detail and definitely never ask you to go over all of it again when you ask for help with an upcoming decision. 3. Your wedding will be picturesque. Photographers cost thousands of dollars. For their most basic package. For example. And everyone understands that you may pass over a family friend in favor of a proven professional. 4. Your wedding day is your day. In this enlightened age, parents know that they don't own their children and they certainly aren't passing over the ownership of their daughter. The decisions of the couple are their own to make. Relatives love traveling long distances and don't expect you to fulfill arbitrary traditions. So weddings are never embarrassing, humiliating, compromising, or frustrating.
I'm going to show you, day by day, how I turn this dress into a wedding dress! I'm getting married on May 30th of this very year (2016! Happy New Year!) and here are the stakes:
So – DAY ONE. Pattern: Simplicity 1195 Fabrics: Over 3 yds of Satin, same of chiffon, some fine white thread from Dual Duty, and Schmetz embroidery needles 75/11 for my machine from Jo-Ann's. My height: 5'1" - 5'2" My weight: approx. 100 lbs Pattern size: I'm using size 4 Machine: Kenmore 385.12102990 My skill level: Intermediate When I look back, a lot happened in my life two years ago. It was a rough time, but two years ago today was the day that life turned around and took a fresh, new direction. I make it a point to not post much on Facebook anymore (so I'm posting here), and I try to keep myself from getting personal or mushy, but the time that I've been here at Franciscan has been . . . . Every time I think back over the past few years, it just blows me away – I can't wrap my head around all the amazing adventures I've had. I made a variety of friends, and I cherish every person, especially those I don't have to put up with anymore ;P Now, I'm a chronic loner, but two years ago today, I gave my anxiety a sedative and offered somebody a permanent spot in my life. He promised always to be there. Three months ago to the day, he asked me to marry him. May 30th, we'll fulfill that promise. And we'll go on fulfilling it until death do us part. |
