"I'm Not the Bride!"

According to Allison that was the quote of the day given by yours truly to yet another person handing me random booklets on wedding paraphernalia. Mind you, this was after about 6 hours of a wedding show, and a very tired and somewhat hungry Jenn did not want more to carry. Another guy asked me if I was dreaming of the perfect smile for my wedding and I told him, “no, because I’m not getting married.” I think it seemed funnier at the time because I was in a rather delirious state of mind.

Despite the exhaustion, I had a fabulous time, and truly enjoyed helping Al figure things out for her wedding. She looks absolutely stunning in her wedding gown, and I was once again struck by the reality of my best friend of 18 years getting married in less than a year. The best part was seeing her in her wedding gown, but an extremely close second would have to be getting my maid of honour and the bridesmaids’ dresses! They are beautiful and cost less than a shirt that I could buy from the mall. I am still in incredible shock over how cheap these dresses are, and so very thankful!

Time for bed.

Terra... I would never lie to you. Just to prove that I'm authentic, here's the secret... a clearance room at a bridal show.
