Day 3... Getting a little more serious

So... Today was a good day! I went to my maid of honor's for coffee and we marked some pages that had styles I liked for wedding dresses. Just in case the dress style I found yesterday no longer exists. Also, this is not a fairy tale and the shoe and dress never fits right on the first try and it sure don't always look like a million bucks! I know my Fiance will look like a million, he always does... and I wanna look as perfect as I can. We are not a fairytale kind of couple... we like to have fun. Example, the proposal. Totally awesome and a total blast! I am not a city girl who is into the whole " ring in the champagne glass" stunt. Don't get me wrong, we will have a classy wedding and I like a glass of champagne every now and again for sure, I just think his proposal was totally awesome because I had no clue what was going on around me considering he had everyone in on it and it was organized right down to getting it on film!
But honestly I don't think you will see me in any of these "Mermaid" dresses or a strapless. Spaghetti straps or something maybe, well hell who even knows, I might make a fibber out of myself... who knows. I just have to try on a ton of dresses and see what I like and what everyone says looks good... and honestly say it looks good! I just don't think I will go for plain white, I love color and I want something that not everyone had at their wedding. My style of clothing is far from " normal". Always has been that way. So this ought to be interesting.
One thing my mother and I did today was make a rough guest list so we have an idea as to how many guest I am looking at... about 200. Cool beans... now I just gotta try and find a venue and we have to figure out a date. Peanuts... *wink* I really can't wait til my Fiance is back on days off and we can actually talk more and bounce ideas off each other. We also made plans to do a lot of walking around the city we live in, since we are thinking that is where it will be... and I would like an outdoor wedding. Now whether it will be oceanfront, or a garden wedding, or even in a church... yet to be decided. Should be good and I will totally burn some calories. But should get some sleep, since tomorrow is another day of planning and visiting.
Til tomorrow,
Bride to be
