New wedding rules

I’m learning so many interesting things from Jen’s wedding.  For example, did you know it’s ok to wear black to a wedding now?  Neither did I.  I just know that tidbit will save me trouble at some point down the road.

I don’t have the temperment at all for handling a big wedding...what she’s doing would have driven me mad long ago.  I’m crazy excited for her, though.  It sounds like it will be absolutely beautiful.  And I think everybody should get a wedding that matches their dreams.  Mine just happened to involve boots, jeans, and a trip to Vegas.  Heh.

1. at least it didn’t involve aliens or Elvis.
   :p

2. Sometimes Vegas is the dream. There have been times when I was ready to scrap it all for a JoP, but then I decided I would be disappointed with that.

   What will drive me ‘round the bend is these blooming beads. That is a much larger task than I imagined. But it’ll all be worth it.

   And I plan to post pictures later so stay tuned!

   As for wearing black to weddings, I’m relieved because I will have to wear black to a wedding on Saturday - I don’t have time to shop for anything and the only dress I have that fits is black.

3. Black at weddings not allowed?  Is that only for women?  I only own one suit, and it’s black, although I usually do wear a blue or white shirt.  And at my wedding, one of my female friends wore black pants and another wore a black top.

   I think what’s more worrisome is wearing white at a wedding.  My mom’s best friend wore a white outfit—stockings, dress, and a really tacky jacket with a fluffy fur collar.  My wife still can’t stop talking about it.

4. I always thought it (wearing black to a wedding) depended upon the time of the ceremony.  F’instance, I wore black to a wedding—but it was after 4:00 p.m.  I doubt if I would have had the courage to do so if it were a morning wedding.

   And, you know, even though I joked about it at the time, it was SO not a subliminal statement on my part.  Heh.

   ANY wedding is nerve-wracking in its own way.  My FIL married me and my husband and I hope to, someday, have a hand-fasting ceremony, too. 

   xoxo
