Activity for Tara

And it's beautiful and I didn't think it looked bad, but the seamstress said I should try and lose inches in my hip/thigh area. I have five days before the wedding and there's no way that's happening. I'm just a little sad that she'd make a comment...

So I'm joking that both of them need to stop because I'm just really bad at dealing with surprises. Yesterday I got out of class and FH was already waiting to pick me up which wasn't really suspicious. Usually we go home and I put jeans on and throw...

I will try to make this short. I do not have a great relationship with my mom, but can't imagine getting married without her so she's coming. There's about a month until the wedding and she still hasn't picked her dress. She's gone through about 20...

We got an estimate back from our venue and discovered that we can't afford to serve beer, wine, and a champagne toast. FH is insisting on a champagne toast which means we can't afford to have either the beer or wine. After a lot of discussion we...

It's our spring break and while I'm busy working on graduate school work, FH is concentrating very hard on constructing our archway and arranging the fabric and flowers. I know he would much rather be playing games, but I can't stop working to do the...

So I sat down tonight to work on constructing my bridesmaid ring bouquets. I asked for FH's opinion about the amount of flowers per cluster to see if he thought I needed to add more or not. He is now doing them I'm not creative so it's totally okay...

So we went back to our venue to try and nail down what exactly we wanted to do with which spaces (we have the entire propery to use which is three buildings, an ampitheater, and tons of open land). We also made a pretty solid list of decorations that...

I've been pretty absent for the last several months, but I'm posting more in the hopes that things sink in. FH and I have been making a decision or two per month about the wedding (Which has been a lovely tactic for how methodical I am and how bad he...

FH and I have hit a huge planning lull. As in we haven't booked or looked at any of the things we still need to get settled for the wedding in a couple of months. Neither of us have the energy to do it right now (the semester just started up again as...

While FH and I are saving up for our wedding and paying for things we will have two other weddings to go to that are across the country. One is his sister's and one is my best friend. We're extremely concerned about being able to afford going to both...

What do you all do when you hit a planning lull? And more generally, what do you do that's not wedding related with any down time? I have a lot of energy and nothing to put it into right now that I can think of.
