If you know me (Ali), you know at least two things about me when it comes to money: 1) I don’t like to spend a lot of it on expensive things, and 2) I don’t like to ask for it.
Our wedding has been a tough situation for me to deal with personally. I am a [...]

I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!
Ok, maybe I’m in love. (Check.) Or maybe I just found pictures of a wedding that actually gave me inspiration! (Double check.)
On Weddingbee (my favorite wedding source), I saw the wedding of Michael and Christina featured, and I fell in love!
Men in kilts!
Paper pomanders!
Girls in vintage dresses!
Very, very cute hair [...]
The Ali Favor
Posted in Uncategorized on June 19, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
When I think about favors, I want something that has the influence of our personalities. Sadly, Billy has no say in the favors- I think I just randomly assign something that would fit his liking. His “favors” are going to be Scottish Tunnocks caramel wafers (hopefully!). I love those things. My “favors” may very well [...]
Martha Stewart, please do my wedding.

After Billy worked a bit today and after I woke up from a nap, we headed over to Michael’s while on an errand trip. It was an interesting visit to the craft store. I was looking to use a coupon on the new Martha Stewart Crafts line, but it was excluded, but Billy and I [...]
Ben Folds does not play weddings. (But does Ana?)

Heh! Second first dance post! How repetitive!
I was thinking about it at work today, and as I had mentioned before, the song I have in mind for the first dance is “The Luckiest” by Ben Folds. What is interesting about that choice is that Billy and I share no connected memory with it. I just [...]

I can spend my whole day listening to the song I plan to walk down the aisle to. Actually, I think I have. And I’m doing so right now. What is that song? Not Canon in D major! Or whatever that… cannon song… is… nevermind. I love classical music, but I never thought I’d get [...]

Thankfully, the reception site for our wedding is the Fil-Am. If you don’t know what the Fil-Am community center is, then… you haven’t lived. I’ve been to many a party here, starting with the awesome-yet-dreaded 10th birthday party (I hid from singing karaoke). I got $400 from that little shingding! Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa! While [...]
Guest book!

All right, I’m not sure what kind of guest book I want for sure yet. What I do know is that a feather plume pen will not be anywhere near it, nor will it be named “guest book” just because I bought one at Michael’s (unless Martha Stewart Crafts comes out with an amazingly awesome [...]
Silly Old Dress

(Sorry for no post yesterday. Apparently, I had no time to write. Scary.)
This post will no doubt be the first of many concerning an important issue of any bridal experience: the wedding dress. Yeah… tough subject here.
During the summer of 2006, I found “the dress.” I was with my Grandma at this dress shop that was [...]

Last night, I went to see “Waitress” with Parisa and Alicia, so I was unable to blog. I asked Billy if he would fill in for me, and I think he did a stellar job. Yay, Billy! He always does more than I expect him to, and his post was just so… cute. Well, to [...]
