feeling consumed.

before getting engaged i had absolutely no clue about weddings except that in 2005 it seemed like everyone was having one. (or was it 2004? i don't remember...) now that i am planning for my own, i've come to realize that this wedding business is serious.

there are so many details here and there that one can be utterly consumed with if one is not careful. escort cards vs. place cards? hair up or down? chair covers or chivari? blue vs. green? oh, the list is endless! i suppose i can understand, given that this is supposed to be the best day of your life, and for me, i only plan on doing this once. i just have to keep reminding myself that this day is about the love that david and i share, and the promise we will make in front of the people we care about. nevertheless, it's going to be one heck of a party.

The good life! I love the theme!

Very nice choices on wedding site and reception! I know, as you said, it may not be the exact one you may have wanted, but I am sure none of that will matter the day of, when you will be walking down that aisle with MR. DAV! Haha, corny I know.

O man, that was such a good description of the proposal. It felt like you were telling me the story in person!
