One of my bridesmaids came over for dinner tonight....turkey tacos. Effing delicious...I had like seven, no lie.
After dinner she asked how the wedding plans and stuff were coming...I told her that everything was all set. I just needed to figure out a way to pay for it all. I have gone a TAD bit overboard with the whole budget. Overboard meaning - I never established one.
So besides the whole 20k in the hole, all I have left to do is assemble the invitations.
Yes assemble. For those of you who are not married yet, like my pink teacuped friend http://thegirlwiththepinkteacup.blogspot.com/, trust me...go for the invitations that are printed on one piece of paper.
I went for the pocket invite. Its pretty, and it says ..hey look ..i spent $800 on invitations...don't you want to be me?
Honestly the only reason I picked these ones, besides the fact that they are gorgeous... Is because K's brother is getting married 5 weeks before us and his fiance is the epitome of the urban princess...
Everything revolves around her.
Her parents are paying for her wedding and there has not been a request that they have turned down. Nothing is too expensive for their baby.
I , on the other hand , am paying for EVERYTHING alone....well I should say K is paying for everything.
he he he he
But...is it awful that while I was sitting here tonight attaching glue dots to the backside of the invites, I was imagining my life somewhere else....WITH someone else?
I love K, I do...but marriage? Ugh...just saying the word makes me feel like a 90 year old woman.
Is it possible to be sexy and fun while your a married mother?

Oh, my dear, thank you for the linkage love! I am not even close to the invite-issuing stage (assuming we get there... Which we will, dammit!), but it is nice to hear words of wisdom from those who have gone before.
ReplyDelete$800 on invitations? I have approximately 0.1% of that in my bank account right now (ie. 8c. I shit you not). And assembling invitations? I have enough trouble assembling Ikea furniture... My hat goes off to you, lady. You are a fucking superwoman.
A hot one, at that.

Oh my God! Keri you did not just spend $800 on invites!
