Yup, I have been blog slackin’! I never thought I would reach this point, but I have! I feel like everything is in order so I stop for a few days and try not to think too hard about wedding stuff, otherwise I will want to change something that has been long decided – i.e. on Sunday, Eric and I went to the Perfect Wedding Guide Bridal Show and I saw a very gorgeous Maggie Sottero wedding gown discounted from more than $1000 to just $399 and I found myself going back several times to look at it! That is completely bonkers because I LOVE my dress and it cost much less than that with alterations and accessories but stilll…ahhh.
Also, I have been working on the “guest book.” Remember that, from the beginning of planning? That idea has evolved from a polaroid book, to a pogo (instant digital polaroid) picture book to its current state of…HAH! I am keeping that under wraps for now! Heehee.
…wait, what was I talking about?
…oh! Yes, I was thinking about music. Let me get to that now – see, from the beginning, I fell head-over-heels with the idea of using “Lucky” by Jason Mraz & Colbie Caillat for our first dance:
I really love both of these artists and the lyrics are very appropriate:
“I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again”
…and I thought, hey that’s that, and it’s all good…UNTIL this past weekend when I was talking about music and Eric asked me who Jason Mraz was when Jenni had a status update about attending his concert. And no, it’s not like I never showed Eric this song to listen to, but I’ve been working on so many aspects of the wedding that he said he didn’t have a major opinion when it came to the music. Now, it’s still my #1 contender because of the reasons I have already listed…but bride brain is making me think, should I pick an alternative song?
Conundrum! (or not?)
