I will make any reason to post about Ira Glass or This American Life. If you didn’t know already, I love public radio, and I especially love this show (either on tv or on the good ole radio). I aspire to achieve this kind of greatness. Who wouldn’t want to be part of [...]

*jump jump*

So, yeah… it’s been a year (our one year engagement anniversary was the 14th, btw), and Billy and I still haven’t announced our engagement in a newspaper. Not that it’s necessary, but I kind of feel like I’d like to see ourselves in print. Of course, I keep changing my mind about what I’d like [...]

In case I ever forget, this person inspires my wedding.

I don’t remember much of France (moslty rain and EuroDisney), but the store Anthropologie makes me think of what homes in France look like. Or should look like. Or what my home will look like.
It’s stunningly disappointing to find such wonderful things at this store, then to learn it costs seven million [...]

I like it simple.

Yes, I like flowers. Just not as much as some people. I am known to have artificial flowers all over my room, but maybe that was influenced by living with my grandmother, who has a million flowers, fake and real, everywhere. I think she loves flowers and color more than anyone, although she really loves [...]

No.

 
I… I would have never thought this would have happened. Only in my wildest dreams…

Busy times.

For those of you who do not know, I (Ali) am still in school. I graduate this December. School started today, and this means I will be busier than usual. There’s school, work, and THEN wedding stuff to concentrate on. Or Christmas presents. Hmm… we’re sending out invitations near Christmas time. We should make that [...]

This is just for cuteness. It’s a picture of a baby’s room, but it’s sooo how the room of our kids will look like. Extra bonus: MIFFY!

After last week’s pining for the unnecessary and unattainable (in my eyes) Carolina Herrera dress, I’ve moved on to something more practical. For my purposes, so I do not have to keep looking for it in past entries on Weddingbee, I’m going to link to the entry itself.
Billy, don’t click the link.
Sheesh, it’s hard to [...]

BTW.

I found a dress I’d love to try on that’s actually of a reasonable price. I’m going to try to visit some, umm, “salons” while I’m at home (Pensacola) next week.
Other things I need to do while I’m in Pensacola: hang out with friends, frolic around town, eat a lot, look at the Fil-Am again, [...]

I love dresses.

I love dresses. Unfortunately, I haven’t really been able to find ones that I love, and especially ones that aren’t a gazillion dollars. Billy and I were watching this one show where the girl had this dress he loved so much, but it cost $20,000. Err, yeah, that’s not going to happen. *sigh* I just [...]

When I first started thinking of our reception, lighting was a big deal to me. I have yet to find a gazillion XMAS lights to strong across the ceiling, but…
I had the immense luck to be with a family that actually took me to the mall yesterday to buy these bad boys. I got 4 [...]

I desperately want to try on a Carolina Herrera fall 2007 bridal dress that I saw in a magazine the other day. And I watched the runway video, too. And have practically fallen in love with it.
But what kind of person spends as much as half a year’s rent on a dress? Hmm… wish someone [...]

STD: The beginning!

 
 
 
So, there comes a time when you know you have to start working on a wedding because the groom’s father mentions save the dates. We really need to send those out. Ever since last May, I’ve been slowly freaking out, but now that it’s already August (omg!), the pressure is ON! Paper and planning is [...]

Billy + Ali: MIA?

Hi, Ali here. Sorry I haven’t updated in a while. I took a trip, and ever since I got home, things have been piling up. I haven’t forgot about the wedding, though! Pressure’s building as everyone’s asking to help in any way they can, and the big day is only 8 or so months away! [...]
