Special Note from the Bride to be..

I just wanted everyone who read my last posting know this is my way of venting my intenstons were not to get anyone upset or annoyed by my stressful moments. I can't wait to see what everyone picks out. Plan on seeing me having alot of melt downs and seeing me stressed out.

I know all of you are wonderful caring people and you will be there for me and Josh. I am looking forward to more wedding planning no matter how stressful it may become.

Thanks Again for your understanding and Patience

Lesson 101

When planning a wedding set up a time to meet with the wedding party. It 's your day don't let anyone tell you any different. Controlling your day is not a bad thing. See what they all look like in different tops or dresses and tell them what you want. Don't ever tell them you want to be surprised. This will stress you out and cause you to have a melt down. You don't want to look back and regret those blasted words "SURPRISE ME". Once someone puts a deposite down on a dress there is no turning back. You just do alot of praying and have alot of faith that they all choose for the best. All I can do now is take a deep breath and say thank goodness for a personal attendent.

TOP SECRET BRIDAL PARTY

The time has finally come. Picking out the bridal party dresses. When going to the bridal shop and picking out dresses I was clueless to what I was looking for or what I might like. Once I tried on all the tops. I ended up picked five or six tops. Believe me this was no easy task. Knowing each member of my wedding party has a different body type and wanting them to have the freedom to choose isn't as easy as I had thought. The Maid of Honor got to choose between two colors and the variety of tops I choose for her. Now comes the Brides Maids. They will get to choose from only the tops I choose for them. Not realizing that they might feel as worried about making a wrong choice as I was when I was trying to find my wedding gown. They want everything to be perfect for me on my big day as much as I do.
So here is what I came up with.
TOP SECRET BRIDAL PARTY: Here is what I want you to do. I want you to surprise me with what you choose as much as I want to surprise you with the wedding gown I picked for my big day. All of you know what color dress you are need to have. Feel free to look at the style top the Maid of Honor choose. Think about what looks great on you and what might look good with what the others have choosen. I plan on calling the Bridal Shop tomorrow to let them know the situation and letting them know about TOP SECRET BRIDAL PARTY PLAN. I will also call my mom to let her know the plan and so the only people who know about what you choose are my mom and the people at the wedding shop. From there we will make it work. I want all of you to have as much fun as I am planning the wedding. I WILL LOVE WHAT EVER YOU CHOOSE.
If any of you have any concerns about this plan feel free to let me know.

REMEMBER HAVE FUN!
