African American Weddings

***TamTam**

Hey girl!!  I was thinking about you last night while I was packing for my move.  Wondering, did you end up using a consignment shop for your gown?  Or is it still with you?  

  How is the married life?

    Hey girl!  I actually ended up donating it to Making Memories (Brides Against Breast Cancer), the same organization that I purchased my dress from.  I just received a receipt from them for my tax records.  I just didn't want to spend the money on getting it cleaned and then the whole not knowing if the dress would sale just aggravated me so I just said, you know what, I'm not dealing with this stress, I'm just going to donate it.  Married life is going pretty well.  I feel pretty adjusted.  There are still other things that need to be done...moreso on DH end though like making sure that my name is on the bills in addition to his getting the mortgage in both of our names, but slowly but surely it's coming together.  How are the wedding plans coming along?

    I understand, but yay to you!!  My Auntie and friend are breast cancer survivors!!  Every little bit helps towards the education of and research efforts to eradicate breats cancer.

    Glad to hear married life is well!  I am sure DH will get things together:)

    Planning...it's going, and since the wedding will be here in less than 1.5 months, it's almost gone!  LOL  Not that I just realized last week I need to select and order a veil!  IDK, I need to stop sometimes and evaluate.
