About

Every girls dream is to have that perfect wedding. In order to plan that perfect wedding, one takes several months, maybe a wedding planner, family and friends and of course a ton of money. Me? Oh no! My daughter lays it on me that she wants to get married in 45 days. 45 days!!! So here's what I am going to do, after of course, the major melt down, anxiety and panic attack and fear. Start planning this thing the best I know how and I'm taking you along with me.

Finally getting stuff accomplished!

Well, we gotten a few things checked off our list on the app.  The venue seemed like the biggest thing to find.  So we set out looking for a barn type building that we could use to make everyone happy.  I was so proud of myself for remembering a small place out in the country, that looked like a barn.  I had been to this place before where, ironically, I attended a wedding!  So I'm thinking how wonderful this would be, and how we could just have such a cool looking place.  Until we actually went to look at it.  Holy cow! It's old barn wood alright.  With only screen at the top and the inside is a mess!  It would take a load of people just to clean the place up, not to mention all the stuff to make it look "wedding" like.  No heat either!  This is a January wedding people!  WE NEED HEAT!!!!! Back to the drawing board.  Finally I convinced the bridge and groom that an old barn was not the best idea for a January wedding.  We found a nice spot, complete with tables and chairs.  Points for Mom! 

Next step, let's go find a dress!  We high tail it to the city to find a dress.  Now my vision of wedding dress shopping with my daughters has always included lots of family, a full day and maybe a television crew.  Ok, just kidding on the television crew, but I have watched enough episodes of wedding dress shopping shows to want that for my girls.  Oh no, not this trip.  We slid in sideways to our parking spot and proceed to aisle 5.  That was a bid drastic, I'm old I putted into my parking spot and asked someone to help us!  The bride found two dresses she liked and I found one.  Off to the dressing room!  She tried hers on first and they just didn't work well for her.  Sooooooo, I'm like, try mine on.  And guess what?? It's the one. Perfect fit and she loved it!  Another point for mom!  I'm on a roll here!!
