So, I really have no idea what will look good on me, but these are looks that I really like. I don't like curls or anything down cause my hair won't hold and I just want a clean sleek look. I was at a bridal store the other day and tried on a couple veils. I initially thought I really wanted a bird cage veil, but recently thought that I might want a fuller veil. I guess once I decide on a dress I will find a veil that goes with the dress.
I went with Kristin, one of my bridesmaids to look for bridesmaid dresses the other day. We found one that we love! It was so funny because one that we looked at online that we both loved looked not so great on. I am so glad that we got to see it on before I was set on one. Hopefully the new one we love will be a hit with everyone else!

dress shopping
EVERYONE keeps asking me what my dress looks like or where did you get it? WELLLL, I don't have it and I DON'T know what it looks like. I am stressing over this majorly! I would love to have my dress now, but that is not gonna happen. I am so over searching for dresses online and ready to shop in person, but I am just not happy with the way I look yet. I think I know what kind of dress I want. Nothing big, poofy, or princessy. My short stack body would get lost in something like that! I want something with clean lines, sweetheart neckline, fitted, slimming, a little bling - but not all over, white, glamorous & modern. is that so much to ask for??!! well I cannot seem to find it all in one dress!!! Also all these bridal shops I talk to keep saying I need to buy NOW - it takes six months blah blah blah. ugh so annoyed, well I am just not ready yet and if they want my business they will make it happen. I plan to start seriously shopping right after Thanksgiving. I have gone shopping once with my mom because she made me and I did not want to go because I knew I would cry and low and behold I DID! It was horrible, I was pasty pale, did not have the right under garments, I felt like a chunky monkey and had no heels to lift my short body off the ground. It was not fun at all!! So my advice to those of you out there - do not go dress shopping on a whim, go prepared!!! The next time I will have my push up bra, spanx, and 4 in. heels, as well as a nice glowing tan! That's the end of my rant, sorry!

love my Mary Grace!
lately
Oh my! I have been so busy working weddings every weekend that I have abandoned the love for my own wedding! Well all of our vendors are booked and that is a huge relief!!! I have not done much since booking the vendors - concentrating on graduating and finishing school with a bang! I have been neglecting some things just to avoid stress - not that picking out invitations or a dress should be stressful - but to me - it is. I have been working with my personal trainer for about a month or so now and I really have started to appreciate it and enjoy it. Don't get me wrong - I DO NOT enjoy it while I am actually working out but after I am finished with my workout and I am headed home, I feel accomplished and better about myself! I haven't been concentrating so much on weight loss but more inches and feeling healthier. My trainer told me last week that I was back in good enough shape to start doing even more difficult things! This is good and bad - I already thought I was doing REALLY REALLY hard and difficult things! I am glad he sees improvement though!
I have finally gotten some things to show for the wedding though that aren't signed contracts. I have cocktail napkins that are monogrammed, two "guest book" items, MY SHOES (which are fab u lous!), our toasting glasses, I made the unity candle myself, and bought my garter on sale! It is nice to actually have something to look at, it feels more real that way! Well I am off to study my night away - hopefully I will be back on here sooner rather than later!
