i know, i’ve left you hanging in the wedding planning updates. i have been extremely busy with work since january, so my wedding planning has been happening, but there has been very little extra time to write about it here. here i go now…
all these images are little hints, but not the “real thing”…
i have remained quite calm over the past several months, even receiving several comments to the effect of “you don’t seem like a bride so close to her wedding. you’re so calm”. yes, i was ~ until this past weekend…
i had two (two!) make-up trials, with two (two!) different make-up artists and neither of them got me at all. my eyes were lined dark in black eyeliner and one gal even tried to put what i would call glam-rock fake eyelashes on me that seemed a mile long. i mean, seriously, does this even look like me? i think i look like i’m a man in drag, but you decide…
not really for me, a gal who hardly ever wears any make-up at all. and i told her “natural”. yikes.
then i arrived home to my guy trying on his tux (so handsome!) and he said “whoa! babe – that’s a lot of eye make-up”. that is not exactly the response one hopes for from their groom on wedding day. meltdown begins…
*but* i am back on track now because my dear friend liz came to the rescue offering her local wedding hair and make-up salon.
18 days, sanity back in check. yippee and thank you, mrs. robertson, because, call me crazy, but i’d like to look pretty on my wedding day.
