I heart Wedding Planning

I was never one of those girls who grew up dreaming of her wedding - I didnt sit ther and think about each detail - in fact I never even tried to picture  what my dress would look like.  and I didnt even into my 20s when I had some long term relationships - I think I figured I would jinx my opportunity to find the 'one'.  So when I embarked on the wedding planning process i - I thought it would be a relatively easy task - becuase I had no preconceptions, no expectations and no dreams to meet...  But that is where I was wrong!  The deeper into the planning I am getting 1) the more I am loving it and 2) the more I am realizing that every detail counts - not becuase it does but becuase I want it to!  And that makes everything much more complicated - though much more fun!  Take invitations for example -I always though I would just go with some online pre-templated designed that was super cheap becuase I didnt care for calligraphy and letter press and all the fluff that stationers like to sell.  But at the end of the day as the design of the wedding takes shape the invites became SO important and as it ws the first guests would see of the theme/colors/feel of the night its weight just increased!  I am SO VERY blessed to have one of the best friends ever - and a bridesmaid - Sara - who is an EXPERT at this stuff - she listened to what I wanted and went away and spent time -lots of time  - in design my dream invites!!!  They are amazing - and what better than to have the invitations to the best day of my life designed by my best friend - so perfect!  anyway - I have come to realize I <3 planning this wedding and all the details and design associated with it!  I actually caught myself the other day a little saddened when it will be all over...I suppose that is why couples have kids!!! ;)
