SHOES!

MY SHOES ARE SUPER AWESOME. I tell myself this at least once a week. I decided early on that I DID NOT AND DO NOT want white shoes. I’ve worn white shoes so few times in my life it seems like a waste. Now, blue shoes I could wear again. And they’d be in our color scheme. And they could be my something blue. Now, I have to admit, my mom has been great with all of our quirkiness and the amount of traditions we’ve thrown out. That said, my mom hated my shoes. I don’t think this has changed but she doesn’t threaten to burn them anymore. I personally think they are the epitome of awesome and their price tag only sealed the deal (7 bucks + tax. I love you Walmart!). Still not sure if they’ll work with my dress but at $7, I think I can take it as a loss if they don’t ;-)

not exactly the most flattering photo of them, but it'll do, it'll do. I searched online for a pic and silly walmart doesn't have the same color shoes in any of their pages but I STILL LOVE MY SHOES

veil and garter ;-)

So, I hadn't realized quite how picky I am till I started gown/veil/garter shopping... or rather, looking at photos online and copying photos I liked. I have no idea how these things will look on me but that's okay because eventually (when I get off my tush and start trying on gowns/veils/ maybe not garters) I will... so in the meantime....

mkay. So I just want to say, even though my mother has told me (numerous times) that she DOES NOT LIKE THE DRESS and it is NOT A WEDDING DRESS. I kindda like it... if only because it's so darn cute and unexpected... now back to the pretty little (rather long actually) headpiece ^_^ I love that it's two different veils made into one. It's both a bird cage and a traditional cathedral lenght ;)

moving onto garters...



now I love lacy wedding gowns like really really bad... but a Lacey hair tie wrapped round my thigh? Not as much... but I don't mind these :)

I actually really like the little pearl bead ^_^
Allofyou
on etsy.com only $14.

while it's rather creepy that these are likely both on some strangers leg... I like this one more than most. Not that horse shoes are my favorite shape but blue is one of our wedding colors and they are good luck and my darling does love him some Irish tradition...

While I am still iffy on doing a garter toss I thought this was amusing. Though topping the cake with this would make me think twice before offering the pastor a slice...

ah. and finally ^_^ I may not be having red in the wedding or quite that much lace but that Nintendo charm would have my ubernerd man laughing hysterically and I think it's totally awesome, in a word.
