Periodically I work on planning wedding stuff.
Why you may ask? Aren't you not getting married for at least another 2 years? Starting to plan a wedding now seems crazy and Bridezilla-ish.
It might seem crazy, but I want to make sure I know what I'm getting into. I don't want to be overwhelmed with details and trying to decide what I want. I want to know what I want and to have a back up plan just in case things don't work out with my first choice.
Since I want an outdoor wedding so much I'm starting to thing a late summer wedding might be better than a fall wedding. I just know that I don't want a church wedding. The church has NOTHING to do with our relationship.
We both love the outdoors. I have to admit that part of the reasoning is because I'm cheap. I figure if we have an outdoor wedding that I might be able to get away with a more minimalistic decor. My Aunt was going to take me to Eau Claire Dells this summer. I saw an outdoor wedding there and it was beautiful.
I'm thinking purple, green, and silver for wedding colors. I told my maid of honor...yes, I have already picked one because she's hardcore awesome. Either way I told her that I want the bridesmaid dresses to be dresses they could easily wear for other events. Shoot, I'm considering going for a colored dress for the same reason. I hate the idea of investing money into something that I'd only wear once. Also I don't care what color dresses my bridesmaids go with as long as it's one of the wedding colors. I know I'm awful.
I just like going over these details. Though I honestly can't seem to decide if I want wedding pie or wedding cheesecake because both are very appealing. I just know I don't really want a wedding cake. I'm not a huge fan of cake honestly. I am more of a pie kind of person. The summer is a good time for pie after all.
