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.🌹🌷🌸💐🙋

    Thank you so much! You are so sweet! Also, looking at your wedding dress picture, you reminded me of Ariel! When she’s getting married! Because your bright red hair cascades beautifully down the open backing of your dress! You are going to be stunning! 👰🏻

    Hi sweet Anna! How have you been!?
    Haha this might be boring but I’ll show you what I’m working on right now. Also I want to say if you every want to talk about anything let me know! I just lost my grandma two months ago and my fiancé and I moved in with my grandpa. He has undiagnosed Demetria so I know how you feel. They have good and bad days and it’s tough. I have a poem somewhere about it that I will find and send to you. So idk of what I’m planning is fun enough to distract you but I’ll show you 😂

    i have dark dark style tables for our wedding with all the chairs being different old vintage style, and old dining chairs. The picture is how I will have the eucalyptus drape on it with the flowers and candles.

    I found these amber and clear vintage drink ware and I am in love 😍😍😍 so I will be using those for everyone’s cups! We also will be using bamboo plates and utensils. So right now I’m on Pinterest deciding what color cloth napkins to get 😅😂 I’m seriously sitting here looking at cloth napkins for the past hour 😂

    So long story short ...

    started dating in high school 11.27.2009
    engaged 8.29.2017
    bought an apartment together 1.28.2019
    wedding date. 9.28.2019

    the wedding is a little over 50 days away. It started to feel real when I started getting RSVP’s back. We’ve been together for so long without every breaking up that we feel as though we are already married.

    Hey Madison!
    So happy to hear from you! You are not boring at all!
    Today was a difficult day, and you cheered me up tremendously!

    I love, love, love your pictures! That will look so wonderful! You have great taste!

    Have you decided on a napkin color? I would love to see your choice! I love your Amber glasses, when I look at your pictures, immediately jewel toned greens and copper popped into my head. Then I saw your glasses.... So pretty! Please continue to share your plans with me if you don't mind, I'd truly love to see them.

    You are so kind to move in with your Grandpa! I'm so very sorry about your Grandma.
    I'm sure it doesn't seem real yet. Hugs to you. Being a caretaker is hard. We have just started having home health nurses come in to see Daddy at home, a few times a week.
    It helps!

    Your wedding is going to be beautiful! Just like you!
    Thank you so much ❤😘

    Yes! I love sharing it with you so will definitely keep sharing my planning process! So all the chairs are going to be different and today I went and picked up a beautiful chair to have to put my grandmas picture on it with some orchids because those were her favorite flowers. As far as napkins goes I have it (at least I hope lol) narrowed down to two. My problem is the one I really like the second picture online makes it seem like it’s lime green. I think I’ll have to order like one set of plates and both napkins and see what looks the best.
