Some Thoughts

I haven't really been up to doing research lately. I'm not really sure why that is. Maybe because the initial excitment of getting engaged is starting to wear off a little bit. I'm not sure. It could also have to do with the fact that the IDEA of planning a wedding is very, very overwhelming. Making sure that everything you decide is exactly right months in advance is tough.I change my mind more often than I change my underpants.

I know there are many, many people who are extremely excited for this wedding. This makes me happy because it means that people really care about us and are rooting for US. With that said, I would really, really adore a small wedding with immediate family. Why? Because it's easy. Because I don't feel like I have to impress any of them with something cool. With THAT being said, I know there are certain rules you follow in certain families when it comes to weddings and invitations. I won't get too specific because I don't want to hurt a single person's feelings, but let's be real here: A wedding reception is never, ever really for the Bride and Groom.

Just saying.

Now that I've said what I've been thinking, kindly go back to ignoring me. : )

Nothing to Report

I've really got nothing to report on the planning front.

Last weekend, I went with my mom and sister to a fabric store as well as Home Depot to get ideas for color combinations and for inspiration in general. You may be shocked to learn aside from colors I gained no real inspiration from the Depot. Unless of course you think different power tools would be make fabulous centerpieces.

It was really fun to just sort of play around in the fabric store. We hung out in the faux flower section for awhile just seeing what different flower combinations would look like. For .000005 seconds I thought "why don't I just use fake flowers? Who cares?" but then I came to my senses and realized I'm cheap, but I'm not THAT cheap. Not that people who use fake flowers are terrible people, I'm just saying it's not the path I would choose for myself.....(I don't want to alienate the people who have used fake flowers. One of those people might like my blog, see this paragraph and put out a hit. Again, just saying.)

As always, I'll let you know when something fun happens. Nothing fun has happened. Trust me.
