So this past weekend, Bob and I hauled over to Memphis to tie up some wedding details. We got sooo much done and I finally feel like this wedding is coming together. In real life. And not just on pinterest.
We met the florist and picked flowers. We met with the venue and planned a tasting. We (I) did a hair and make up trial at the salon. And thank gawd. I normally don't wear make up. At all. After chickie was done making me up, Bob barely recognized me. I can't have that the day of the wedding. That boy needs to know exactly who is he's marryin'. Right? So back to the weekend... We met the minister, an old family friend of Bob's, who I loved immediately. Poor Bob was sweating and fidgeting during the meeting for no reason whatsoever. We both finally chilled out about half way through the meeting and relaxed enough to be just slightly nervous versions of ourselves.
Sunday we met with our DJ. What I thought would be an hour max meeting turned into 3.5 hours sitting in Barnes and Noble. Wow. We covered everything he's going to do. I'm really pleased with what we accomplished even though it took an excessively long time. Turns out, he's going to be our wedding coordinator as well. Dude has skills. He rocks.
We (he) also picked out what he's wearing...after 4 trips to Men's Warehouse. Holy balls. I guess I shouldn't pick on him too much. I went to 5 dress shops and tried on approximately 80 dresses before deciding on an amazing Alvina Valenta (that was 75% off the original price- YES!!). Anyway. He picked out a really awesome suit and coordinating ties for him and his boys.
So, now I'm back in Little Rock. Looking at the stack of boxes I need to use to pack. Boxes that are laying flat, no where near being assembled, and certainly miles and miles away from being filled. Oops. It'll get done. Eventually.
