Technical difficulties! I just typed a huge long post and then WBC logged me out just as i was finishing! UHG!
Well, I am still trying to get the good pix from my latest bridal shower but in the mean time i thought i would share my first hair trial, wedding dress fitting and my 'something borrowed' with you.
My something borrowed is so so special. My great-grandmother wore these clip on, diamond and pearl earrings at her wedding [ she didnt have her ears pierced] then my mother wore them for her wedding... and now its my turn! What I love most about them is that the little diamond leaf details match the flower/leaf beading work on the bodice of my gown!!!
Speaking of gown, i had my 2nd dress fitting and it was TERRIBLE! I've gained 15 lbs since i bought it but the sales woman said it was a corset lace-up dress so I had wiggle room and could either lose or gain weight and still be perfectly fine. Well let me tell you, that was not the case! I was crying, i felt SO uncomfortable! My boobs were practically hanging out and even though the dress laced up i could barely breath and sit! So its back to working out for me. I have 3 months to lose 15 lbs. So 5 lbs. a month isn't too ambitious right?
As for my hair trial, it started out good and I liked the end result but here are three reasons why I am NOT choosing this hairstyle. #1 I don't like the way it twisted in the back, pieces kept falling out throughout the day. #2 i have been growing my hair out since the day we got engaged and the hairstyle didnt flaunt my locks like i thought it would, #3 my head was in pain from all the bobby pins after the first hour!! A wedding is 8x longer than that and i do not want to have a sore scalp by the tie I'm walking into my reception.
So there you have it ladies, that's what i accomplished this weekend. Happy Planning!
