But you are going to wear a tiara like Kate, right?!?! Your fiance is from England afterall.
Poke, it's pretty, and I agree, it does not look Kate-inspired at all. Your FI is royalty, though, right? I thought all English people were Lord something or other.
Yeah - I don't even know what I'm going to wear in my hair at this point. I have a veil that was supposedly new but it's all effed up. I didn't spend much on it and I bought it from someone on TK. At this point I might not even have a veil. Ugh.

Okay is it a full moon. There is a chick on Moms and maid who CRIED that her 17 year old FSIL was going to get a hair cut and now her hair won't be in curls. Do people really cry over stuff like BM's hair?
What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests. Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.
Thanks guys : D I bought it like two years ago (in my defense - we pushed back our date) and I still love it.
Tell him to stop being cranky Angel. Are you guys getting along better today?
Lynda - I cry about my little sisters eyebrows. They are seriously bushy. But it has nothing to do with her being a BM. It has something to do with how it looks like she's got two fuzzy caterpillars on her face x.x

<div>Thanks Mica! I might skip it - it's not like my dress needs any embellishment or anything. I love the look of a veil with a sleek and simple dress, but mine has lace AND beading so I think it could stand alone. My mom would have a total fit though.</div>

Ehh, We were, but since I'm again in a crappy mood after that fight with my sister, he's already getting annoyed with me, even though tonight I haven't been mean to him. I think we'll be okay. As soon as I digest my Wawa tuna wrap, I'm making a drink... I need it :)

Hey ya'll. I've only read the first page but eeesh. Angel, that kind of ish is why I am glad I only have two younger brothers and only male cousins. I used to get really irritated by them when I was in HS. But now we never ever fight and mostly are really good friends. Brothers are awesome like that.
Aryn- I am usually really good about not procrastinating, but this semester was horrible so I ended up having to get a whole semesters worth of work for one of my classes done in a week. I did it, but it sure did suck!

Lynda - I don't ever want to move anywhere that doesn't have a Wawa
And Musu - Yeah, having sisters sucks sometimes. People have always told me I'll be so glad to have them when I'm older, but we'll see if that day comes, haha.
I'm seriously still shaking from it, I haven't gotten that angry at anyone in a long time.
I'm sitting here laughing at Chef. He has a bunch of toys/bones that he didn't really care about. Completely ignores them.
Now that Sadie is expressing an interest they are now his favorites. Funny how that works. He's not aggressive about it, just when Sadie puts it down for a minute he is all over them.
Silly dog.

I had an updo and wore a veil for the ceremony only. I also used a small hairpiece that was in the whole day but it added just an extra bit of bling without being over the top. The veil sat right above the curls and then slipped out really easily after the ceremony.
