A weekend of makeup and hair appointments you say....I think yes! A few weekends ago I spent most of the time doing the more girly items so as you can imagine Kyle opted out of this weekend. Not to mention it was the first home game of the season, but don't worry the Fight Song was downloaded and played after every touchdown just for the occasion! Because the weekend was full of makeup and hair trials and another dress fitting there aren't many pictures to share, so I apologize for heavier text!
First we headed downtown for a hair and makeup
consultation. Braving the public without any makeup at 8 in the
morning was a little challenging, but definitely well worth it for the
end results! After getting all done up we headed to try on my dress
after alterations had been made. With nerves brewing we slipped the
dress on and to my relief....it fit! I think every girl's stress level
is elevated two fold when it comes to trying on the dress. (Especially if you're like me and bulge the second food hits your mouth!). After finding relief in the fact that (for that day) the dress fit and with both my grandma and mom
in tow, we sat down for a marvelous lunch before bridal accessory shopping!
Ok so lesson #1 from a whole day of shopping:
The wedding dress = easy to find
Bridal accessories = near impossible!!
We spent the whole day looking for shoes, earrings, and everything bridal but with no luck at the end of the day.
Solution = online shopping, my new best friend!
Since that weekend we have gotten a lot accomplished including...
- All bridal portrait details taken care of (week and a half to go!)
- Makeup and hair booked
- Florist finalized
- Bridesmaid dresses ordered
- Guest book created, ordered and received
- Wedding album ordered
- Invitations selected
- Mini-moon decided on!
- Fun details taken care of
- And bridal beauty regiment in full swing!
We're almost 4 months out which is so hard to believe but extremely exciting! Till next time :).
