Hey Ladies! I got engaged in February after a two year "courtship". We set a date, we invited our friends to participate in the wedding, but, I must admit, it didn't feel real until we booked our venue. Woo hoo! We were full steam ahead,booking our Venue, Honeymoon, DJ, photographer, officiant,...
Hey Ladies!
I got engaged in February after a two year "courtship".
We set a date, we invited our friends to participate in the wedding, but, I must admit, it didn't feel real until we booked our venue. Woo hoo!

We were full steam ahead,booking our Venue, Honeymoon, DJ, photographer, officiant, caterer, ordered our cake, had our engagement photos taken for save the date, bridesmaids have dresses and shoes, I have my dress and veil. I have a make-up artist and hair dresser lined up. I even have a hair dresser for my horse Sasparilla, who I'll be riding in my wedding.

Our wedding is June 6,2020.
We have accomplished alot,but for the moment we are at a standstill due to some unexpected life events.

My Daddy has been diagnosed with Dementia. It's a tough journey to take with a loved one. I truly hope he can stand up with me at my wedding.

I'm also approaching the second anniversary of my Mama's death on the 4th of August.

I'm in need of a happy distraction to cheer me up and get my wedding mojo back.

All of you newly engaged brides, I'd love to see pictures of your dresses, veils, rings, flower ideas, shoes,engagement pictures etc.
Feel free to share it all! I'd truly love to see themSmiley smile

I'm sharing pictures of my dress again and my horse, because I love them bothSmiley smile
Thanks in advance!
Happy planning to all.🌹🌷🌸💐🙋

    So much has happened in the past couple months to make it feel real! We are 66 days from our Big Day 💕. Sounds like you are in a good place with your wedding and I’m so sorry to hear about your Dad and your Mom. Thinking of you and I hope you feel the love in this thread!

    rom the top: My Sisters Luncheon to thank them for being a pet of our wedding 💗

    My fiancé and I at our wedding showcase and tasting.

    Mystery flowers sent to my fiancé and we still don’t know who they were from! So gorgeous!

    Our first wedding gift was Waterford from my informal mentor. She’s amazing... so exciting!

    My fiancé and I excited about the showcase.

    Our invitations ghat went out about a month ago.

    I got braces to have a perfect smile at our wedding (and I’ve always wanted it!) then when they came off it was like “oh, it’s SO on!”

    Picked out my shoes and working on my accessories now!

    I feel for you. I've had similar health issues in my family and it's tough. Sasperilla is everything. That's so great! Do you have more pictures of the dress?

    Here is my ring and a few of my dress. I hope it cheers you up!

    Omg Julie!
    I love you! You most definitely, cheered me up! I love your dress! That color is fantastic! Your ring is so unique! It suits you to a t! Ty so much! Your Colonel Mustard, made me 😆 and it was much needed! I spent alot of my childhood playing clue. Thank you for reminding me of that!
    I added pictures of the front of my dress, it's way to big on top, but you get the ideaSmiley smile details on the back( why did I wear a black bra?) And a close up of my train. It's a horse hair train...which sealed the deal . Ha ha. Ty, truly! For the kind words and the laughs❤ keep in touch!

    It feels real for me sometimes! We only have two and a half months left, but it still hardly feels like we’re getting married! It hit me the first time when my grandmother took me out on a day’s outing we talked about the wedding and she gave me marriage advice, and then bought me my perfume that I’ll wear only on the wedding day, and on anniversaries after that! Then it felt real at my bridal shower, but my dress is coming in on monday and that’s when I think it will really hit me!! 😍
