The Dresses

This is getting stressful. Friday is Neldon and my 2 year anniversary, and I am sitting here planning our wedding.. Looking at bridesmaid and flower girl dresses.. Neldon has basically told me to plan it how I want it. But It's hard not having him here to have his input on all of this. It's hard. I didn't think it would be this hard.. But the reason I'm looking for everything now is so I can get an idea on how much I'm going to be spending. But on the other hand, I have found this designer that I really really like. I just need prices and I can't get them on the website. I have to go into the store where I bought my wedding dress. But that's okay. Those ladies have always been so awesome to deal with. This is going to be one expensive wedding - considering we each have 8 people in our lines - but Neldon and I are both so excited. It's going to be big.. And with 2 years of planning. It'll be the best wedding ever. I know that's a biased opinion.. But still. The biggest part (my dress) is out of the way. So thankfully I don't have to go dress shopping for me.. Just jewelry and shoes. And I think with the jewelry, I'm waiting for Neldon so he can help me pick out necklace and earrings. Bracelet? I don't think I want a bracelet. We'll see though. Neldon may have other plans. I'm getting excited. But my anxiety is killing me. I feel like I'm not getting anything done and I have to wait for Neldon to make some decisions. I just want to plan it all. But.. I guess at least with some of the decisions.. We will still have 6 months from when he gets out to deal with the rest of everything. :)

Ah.. It's coming together :)

I'm a little bit stressed. But the wedding planing is going good and it is coming together. I finally got a hold of everyone I needed to about being in mine and Neldon's lines. :)!!! YAY!! I'm so excited. Though there is 2 other people that I am thinking about that I need to talk to Neldon about to see what he thinks. Soo.. It's going good on that note. NOw just to plan on the dresses/tux's, stuff for the kids. Ring pillows, flowers.. *sigh* And also, to find a new wedding ring set. There are a couple of sets that I have in mind.. But I don't want to pick them out without Neldon here. I'm a little stressed about that because I need to have our rings in time for the wedding. Let's just pray that Neldon comes home on an ankle monitor for the 3 months that he's supposed to be in the half way house. (Yes, it is a possibility.) Things are going good *thankfully*. I'm so blessed to have everyone and have as much help as I do with everything that's going on. It's crazy busy non-stop almost. But at the same time. I'm blessed. I'm loved. My kids are happy and healthy. What more could I ask for? :) Anyway, I guess I better get some dinner made with my sister. :) Until next time, God Bless!

The beginning of the planning! YIKES!

Okay.. Sooo.. I have emailed Neldon for ideas about the wedding and he gave me an excellent idea for center pieces. He wants to do something that has our favorite scriptures written on them. But I want them to be able to scrapbook them too. So what I was thinking is.. getting some frames and painting them in our wedding colors, writing up our scriptures, and putting them on tables.. That way, I can take them out and scrap book them later, but still use the frames for our wedding pictures for around the house. Thankfully, I have my dress and everything is set that way. Now I just need... Invites, flowers, cake, tux's, bridesmaid's/flower girl dresses, groomsmen's tux's, ring bearer suits (tux???), basically everything. Haha. All I know is it's a good thing I got just under 2 years to plan this thing. But it's going to be amazing! <3 I'm super excited!!!
