I haven't gotten too much done on the wedding front... however I do have a lot to update you all on.
A few weeks ago I had decided to email my one bridesmaid since she wasn't answering my text messages. She was the last girl that had to order her dress so I was curious if she had gone the day that she said she was going to go. I didn't think it was a big deal to ask a bridesmaid if she ordered her dress.. considering she was holding everybody else up. So I emailed her just to ask and I get a response back saying 'just order the dresses without me'. Needless to say there was a few more emails back and forth and I must say I contained myself pretty well considering. But she never clearly backed out of my wedding but she said that she didn't want to be stressed out anymore. Which.. I'm sorry but I'm far from bride-zilla... the only thing I've asked anyone about was their gowns. I picked a gown by end of January and they were told to order by the end of March. Which clearly, she didn't. Money wasn't the issue, it was just 'stress'. I still to this day haven't gotten a definite answer or reason from her. She hasn't responded to texts or emails. But the last I said to her was a simple 'thanks.' I was extremely upset over the whole situation, especially because I saw this girl as a little sister and was the last one I expected to have to deal with something like this from. Weddings truly bring out people's true colors and I'm just glad I realized this now. She's not invited to the wedding either. I'm just done and over her all together.. especially if someone can do this to a friend 6 months prior to the wedding.
So after all that I was left with a dilemma.. what do I do?
I've been debating asking my friend who I originally wanted to have in the wedding but the numbers didn't allow. Which I have asked her but I'm just awaiting a response. So we'll see. I'm hoping it's a yes. I wrote her a letter and everything and sent it over with the vinylmation. So fingers crossed it all works out.
I'm going to be assembling invitations on Friday with my maid of honor and Dave. So I'll have some pictures for you to reveal my invitation designs! YAY!
I'm hoping to get my tears of Joy packets done as well. I'm going to try and print out the tags myself.. but I'm not sure if it will work correctly or not?
I should also be having a somewhat hair trial coming up at the end of the month to start playing with my hair. Cause I honestly have no idea what I want to do with it? I just don't want the normal bridal hair? ;D
We also have changed our theme! We're going for 'Under the Sea'!! I cannot wait to talk with my florist and let her know we're changing the theme of the wedding and going back to what I originally had my heart set on. =] Not the typical 'beach' wedding.. I literally want people to feel like they're under the sea! I'm working on getting some floral ideas together so please let me know if you all have any ideas to add!! I'll update soon with some more inspiration.
