Of Course it could not be seamless!

I sent out most of my invites last week

I found out two days ago that the URL for our wedding website was wrong.

ARGH!!!

It is now fixed for anyone who cares.

ARGH!!!

Stuff always has to happen, doesn't it?! LOL


We get to meet Anjella tomorrow! WHOOT. I am so excited. bounce bounce

Going to put my dress on again today. Mum found her veil and I think, after all the dramas associated with my purchases, I might just wear it. Another part of my Something Olds.

Something Olds: Nanna's Hanky - which will be embroidered with our wedding date and stitched into the back of my dress. Mum's veil which is a scalloped edged and embroidered two tiered veil (actually, it is three tiered but I want two so will get rid of the blusher...
Something News: My dress, Shoes, Jewellery....
Something Borrowed: oooh.... maybe this should be the veil... will think about that.
Something Blue: My undies... :) And my stripey socks if I change into my second shoes at the reception...

So... have been at mum's for the last two weeks. We leave tomorrow to head back to Sydney. There are 86 days until the wedding. Well, actually there are 85 because that counter is based for the states I think. One way or the other, there is limited time left!!

Tara's dress is 90% made. I Need to put interface netting in the bow, and possibly make a cape for her. She is going to be adorable. Need to get her shoes. And we need to pray that her chest size does not change between now and the wedding because I became a little excited with my overlocker and taking in the seams....

I have wedding shoes! $10 bargain from the south melbourne markets. OMG... I loved that market. Much smaller than queen vic... hardly any people and some funky bargains. I soooo would have bought a fur stole, however Ally does not like them.

Which reminds me. Need to find a shawl to match my dress.

My dress is living at Mum's until the wedding. I don't need it in sydney (other than to look at)... so it can live here. If I loose weight the dress will need to be taken in. My sister has the name for a lady in Cobden who can apparently do alterations in a day.... so if I do mysteriously loose weight instead of putting it on, we are covered!

The Fans have all been ribboned... so have the parasols. I need to find myself an extra parasol, because I am a little over all brides having the chinese ones... as lovely as they are.

We have photo locations worked out! The Gardens, The Cemetary, A private residence with the most amazing gum trees... and if we need one more there are some old metal sheds that would be a cool backdrop... will see how it goes with time, and what the Magic Anjella thinks of them/thinks of the time factor.

I had a hair Trial... It looked great. Not as much like the one that I wanted but apparently I have more hair than I needed for that particular style, and also not enough hair for another style. I have holes in my hair so it is going to be interesting. it will be out mainly with lots of waves, and bird-nesty at the back with twirls pulling it off my head. Photos will come. I have lots of photos.

I had a makeup trial with Napoleon Perdis in melbourne. Lovely stuff - the eyes are going to be dramatic - as will the lips when I can find a different brand of lippy. The colour was nice, but the lippy bled everywhere... blergh. I need kiss proof stuff as ally Hates makeup. That is the one thing I really need to get in Sydney when we get back. The mascara from NP was shocking - non waterproof (who gives a bride non-waterproof mascara?!) and it aggrivated my eyes and started burning them. I took it back (I bought it after the trial) and got another eyeshadow. I have some funky eyeshadows now. They'd want to be great for the cost!! haha.

We went and looked at cars yesterday too. I want to arrive in the Riley that we looked at. OMG. it is a beautiful car. That or the Citroen... the Riley is a 1950s, and the Citroen is a 1930s.. they had a 19something Dodge, which is what I was going to go in originally until the guy decided to sell it... so now I get to choose some funky cars. We need to decide on one or two and if we can afford them...

um.. what else...

I got a new pair of boots. nothing to do with the wedding. THey are red, fake leather, scrunchie and flat.. and I love them $40...

My sister got a new pair of boots... Spanish Leather, Leather Soles, Almost kneehigh style, from Midas. Purple. $20. Can we say bitch. She loves me though - I found them for her. Isn't she lucky I love purple and did not pick up the black or brown pairs that were $250. The original price tag was $360.... and she got them for 20.

need to take pics of mum in her dress.

got lots of stuff I need to do today.. not going to do it all.

right now I have to go and save mum's vintage vase.... Tara has found it.
