*sigh*
Oh, my friend Meredith is all talky about her wedding, and it really makes me think about mine (which is going to be so far in the future it isn't even funny.... I'm not getting engaged ANY TIME SOON!!! -I just feel like I need to make that clear before I start talking about this.)
Okay: Here is the engagement ring that I've picked out:
Now, it was important for you to see it because it is going to be what I base my wedding on. (I have always and forever wanted my wedding to be sapphire blue because it's my birth stone, and I wanted it in my engagement ring because it's still a traditional diamond, but sapphires are actually more rare, and then again- it's my birth stone.) So my wedding colors are going to be the sapphire blue (totally not coppying you, Mer!!!) and white. Well, black, too because that's what the guys will wear. And I will only have 6 bridesmaids, which is going to be sooooooo stressful, I'm glad I don't have to think about THAT. Since it'll be a long time until my wedding, I'm just going to have to see what I get in everyone's elses, so that way I don't offend people or something.
Oh! And instead of having masses of flowers, I want candles EVERYWHERE. I want them in all the windows, along the walk-way, on tables, ets. EVERYWHERE. :) I also kind of want to do it later in the evening, so it's darker outside, but I don't know how realistic that would be. But think about it, you could party all night long! lol. And my reception totally won't be all that formal (that's what the ceremony is for, after all) I'll just have some form of buffet, and no assigned seating (like what my sis wants) other than the bridal party at one table. But it'd be amazing to have an outdoor reception under the stars. And I'd put little disposable camaras on all the tables so everyone can take pictures for us.
*sigh* Too bad my ring, is like $8,000 so it'll be a while before I'll get to plan all of this.
But I do want a semi-small wedding. Not too small, but not too big (I want plenty of gifts). lol.
Oh well, I REALLY don't need to be thinking about this any more. I guess I AM lucky, however to have a boyfriend that doesn't freak out when I ramble on about my wedding. He even has imput occasionally. (Not that I totally take him seriously) At first he stressed out about it because of the cost factor, but after he found out that it was the bride's family's responsibility to pay for it, he calmed down a bit. SO I can talk about my $1000 wedding dress all I want and buy bridal magazines. (With Karen, of course.)
I mean, Thomas and I have been dating for ever two years now, and I'm going into my junior year of college, so it would be really unrealistic for us not to think about it at all. I DID get mad at him when he said he wanted to wait until he was 26 or something, because I'm NOT waiting that long. So I jsut went out and told him I wanted to get married a year or two into grad school so that I wouldn't be stressed out about my senior year AND a wedding AND being accepted into schools. I would sooooo die.
Okay. Enough. I have to make myself stop. And I'm really not that obsessed with getting married, I just have fun thinking about it. La te da te da.
Bored bored bored. Emily was supposed to come up here after she got back from the tanning bed so that we could head on over to the cafe for dinner. I'm finally getting hungry. We had really crappy food for lunch and I need something real. Blah. So ciao for now!!!
-I swear I'm not thinking about getting married any time soon!!!
