Welcome to my wedding blog!

Hi!
Join me as finalize my divorce... three years and counting and get ready for the big day next June! I am having a real blast as a fat bride, who isn't on a diet...NO DIETS, and who will not be. The idea for this blog started when the lady at the wedding dress shop said "so what are your plans for weight loss?" I said " Oh, I will look like this" and then laughed hysterically!
So Fat Chicks Rule in my book.....lets see what happens next....

Wedding Dress acquired, nervous breakdown over address stamp.....

Happy Valentines Day!
In a few hours it will be that time of year once again, the big day Valentines Day. I actually hate valentines day but secretly love valentines day but really hate valentines day... hmm I wonder if I will get a valentines day card...When I was single, and happily so I would just plummet into a deep rage on valentines day. I always wanted a dozen roses to arrive at the office with a teddy bear saying be my valentine.... why? Because I'm competitive as all hell actually.... oh yeah and the whole boyfriend, lover thing.....really it was about the prizes... now I have a this wonderful love and I think we are going to the movies to see the new Denzel Washington flick. I'm hoping for popcorn....I would say red robin before the movie but it will be a  crowded nightmare....and there's the whole paying for the wedding thing....

So here it is ...... wait for it....

I picked up my wedding dress. YAY! I still love it, and the extra fabric for sleeves... so loving it..... really... what can I say... I'll  tell you what I can say.... its heavy as all you know what... OMG I was a little tippy and am  listing to the right....  sort of teetering on the big round platform you have to stand on to preen....
BTW  wedding spanx  are so fabulous, sucks you right in. That woman who invented them is genius... however, I had to be helped into them....literally. Talking to my bestie boo about the dress and getting ready on the big day, we have just moved prep time back a full hour just for the spanx! But they are mahvolus...... beauty is pain... or whatever....I also tried on a rhinestone tiara.... SO FABU! but I was strong and declined... can we say age appropriate?  Ok so I'm never actually age appropriate but the line must be drawn at the BIG rhinestone tiara which of course leaves room for a smaller tiara..... which brings me to wedding shoes......



Now selecting shoes seemed to me to be something that comes at the very end say June. Once again, wrong....you have to have the exact shoes at the seamstress so she can hem and bustle appropriately... yes I said bustle....the three choices above are where I currently reside in my thinking. Although shoe number three can only be selected if I walk barefoot down the aisle carrying these babies..... but good shoe porn no?

so we are down to some sort of ballet flat or the wedding sneak... I'm leaning toward blinged out sneaker... think tromping around farm for photos  on hard pack dirt road and grass and barns.... just sayin.... So vote tell me what you think!!  Blinged out chucks may be the way to go...

One more activity for you dear reader... wedding music. Here is our  list so far of stuff to play at various times during the wedding... the processional is a problem, some stuff too grandeous, some stuff just gross..... all thoughts welcome!

Our Wedding Songs

Well that's all for now, time for sleep and to dream of the perfect cocktail napkins........RFB

PS cups on my foundation garment for the dress can also be worn as a hats..... really, fits on my head... geez...louise!
