I AM GETTING MARRIED!!!

I went with one of my BM's today to Bridal Reflections in Carle Place and picked up my dress.

The seamstress was wonderful. She understood how difficult these past few weeks had been on my because on the day of the first fitting, my mom had her back surgery.

I had the opportunity to thank the manager of the store and compliment her on how well I was treated and how well my BP and family was treated each and every time we came in. Now the dress is hanging in my mother's house in a bedroom that isnt being used. No pics ladies. You have all seen enough of me in that thing so you'll have to wait until Janna or Hollie post pics from the wedding. But I should tell you that I was able to find a suitable pair of panty hose made by Calvin Klein that will not show seams. It simply does not have a waist band:


On Tuesday, I went to pick up the receipt for the final payment for our band and luckily had the chance to speak with our bandleader. I felt he needed to know how fragile Mom was and that she NOT be jostled around too much. He was very sensitive to our situation and our family and promised me that everything would be perfect.

On Wednesday, we met with our photographer to discuss details and give the deposit due before the wedding. I told him that Mom didnt want too many shots with the wheelchair. He got it.

On Thursday, we chose our menu at the temple. I cannot believe how much food there will be. I also got to see the bridal room completed! I think FH is surprising me with flowers so it should look prettier than in the pic below

On Monday we will meet with the Rabbi to go over the ceremony. I am anxiously waiting to get my programs so we can assemble them.

I am up to only minor details now!!!


Check out FH in the bridal room!

Leslie, that is so wonderful.

Is it customary to meet w/ Chuck beforehand? Did you give him a list of 'must take' pics?

I dont think it is customary but I wanted to meet face to face with the must take list. I also needed him to know about my mom and not to take certain shots (ie if she is using oxygen, and to try NOT to get the wheelchair in pictures if he can help it.) He needed to know not to move her around too much because of her fragiity. He also wanted to know the breakdown of the family members and bridal party so he doesnt miss a shot. You will not be disappointed! He and Ed were cracking jokes!
