< 3 Months

85 days to be exact and it is crAzy! I realize I have not written in 2 weeks ... quite pathetic. This isn't just a wedding blog so there really is no excuse. Well actually there is a pretty good one in MY opinion.

See I sometimes (ahem, ALWAYS!) do my blogging while at work, sitting on the phone waiting for a call to pick up. It get quite boring sitting there mostly getting yelled at and turned down so it helps pass the time plus it relieves some of my stress. So anyways about 2 weeks ago the big boss decided to go on a rampage about people using the Internet and email for personal use ... they started accessing people computers and taking screen shots of them so needless to say I have not TOUCHED the Internet or email in 2 weeks be cause they have threatened corrective action and I have worked there a year and have not once gotten in trouble [knock on wood]. We are even unable to use word documents at this point in time because apparently my boss has transformed into Hitler and we now work for Nazi Germany ... I feel like Anne Frank except I don't even have a word document to wrote down my thoughts.

It's just something that happens every time there is a slow month, they like to try and blame it on anything and instead of the weather and lack of need they say "oh it's because people are emailing and on google too much!". I'm not saying they don't have a right to be mad but let be honest and not go on witch hunt.

So anyways lots have happened and changed since last I was on here. My mother finally (FINALLY!!!) found her dress.

That is the color as well and i think its going to look so great! Now we just need to get these darn suits!!!

My parents also reserved the rentals FINALLY! Just today I kid you not but at least it is done. I have started getting people saying they will not be coming to the wedding so the guest number has dropped a bit but the less the better because that is less money!

We have also decided that we are no longer going to Hawaii for the honeymoon. There are 3 reasons; First reason is because it still really bothers me Patrick went to Maui last week. It was really hard, I think I cried a lot while he was gone and leading up to it but than halfway through his trip I apologized to him for feeling the way I did. I said I could not help the feels I had but I could at least not let it effect us any more than it already had AND tarnish his well deserved vacation. I also decided that Maui had lost that special feeling for me ... I think I had to in order to stop being such a crazy person about him being there. Also we were becoming painfully and stressfully aware that we have no idea how we are going to pay for us once we get there. So i thought of another place that I know we both have never been and want to go ... The Riviera Maya! Not only is is beautiful but it is ALL-INCLUSIVE!!! Not to mention it has some of the best scuba diving! Way better than Maui. I didn't spend all those hours taking certification after certification to NOT go scuba diving. I am 3 certs away from being able to be a Scuba Instructor ... something I have wanted to do since my first class 9 years ago. Anyways we are both feeling less stressed with this decision and happier there for making things with us GLORIOUS!

Oh also my parents apparently HATE the style of seating I want for the reception. They want round tables and I want the family style seating .... my mother said with a round you can talk to everyone around you but at a long table you can not ... I do not see this logic being as the rounds would be too far away to just casually talk to someone. Anyways my caterer (god bless her) suggested maybe doing both. We would do the head table really long to fit the entire party but then have a mix of rectangle and rounds for all the other guests .... I just don't know. It was just so much easier to do a seating chart when I have 6 long tables: One for the bridal party, one for the Bride's family/relative, one for the Groom's family/relative, one for the Groom's parent's friends, one for the Bride's parent's friends and one for both of our friends .... sooo EASY! I even did the chart already lol. But my parents are really unhappy with it. So I am torn between doing what I had dreamed and doing what makes my parents happy.

THOUGHTS PLEASE!!!

Oh also I still don't have a place booked for our rehearsal dinner LoL
