Hello out there!

So, I am having a little bludge day today. The boss has gone to Sydney for the week. That means I can slow down a notch. Hopefully.

Well, the holiday plans are all but finished. Bought travel insurance this morning, have a final fitting for the dress on Wednesday, now just have to save some more money...Always a catch.

It was weird on Saturday, trying on the dress. I don't know what did it but when I got home I had a little cry. I wonder if it was because it has taken me 13 years to get to this point - trying on wedding dresses. Or perhaps it was because the dress is just a shade short of perfect and I wanted it to be perfect. Maybe it was just because I as excited about the whole thing and have no one to share it with.

I am trying to keep it very low cost, and to do it with little fuss, and therfore haven't gone out on vast shopping trips, traipsing around shops and malls, I have tried to do what I can over the net and on the cheap. I wonder if I have done it properly? I guess when I put it all together all will be revealed.

All that is left is Him's shirt. He has sort of decided to forego the suit. Only thing then is to decide - black shirt, black pants, red tie? Cream shirt, black pants red tie? Red shirt, black pants, black tie? Probabaly the first option actually...

If he must wear black, how about a white tie with a red buttonhole? The Elder has a friend who got married in black and red. Hey, remember cousin Susan and her first hubby had everything black and red? That was great. XD

Never mind. You know I would do it with you if I could. Just to make your day mmwwwhahahahaha

Yes, I do like that look. But it would have to be a cream tie, and as he is sans jacket, no buttonhole. Sorry.
