“So much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.”
These last few days since Thanksgiving have been SO busy. And I've been on my feet for literally 40 of the last 48 hours, so my feet are aching, and I am running on fumes right now. I have a lot of things to catch you up on (like my car situation), r...
Wedding Dream Woes
When I would hear of other brides having wedding nightmares, I used to think they were nuts. Now that I've had my THIRD wedding dream/nightmare, I take it back. My first dream was chronicled here. The second, I don't think I mentioned, but it basical...
5 months to go!
Every so often I feel that I'm allowed to have an OMG WEDDING!! post. And today is 5 MONTHS LEFT UNTIL I GET MARRIED so here it is. :)- OMG WHY DID EVERYTHING GET SO CRAZY ONCE WE HIT THE 6 MONTH MARK?? I did so much early on and then did nothing for...

Hello party peoples!! Is it just me, or has this week draaaaaggged?? Ughh.Yesterday Dave yelled at me that I hadn't updated. But why update when I have nothing to say??The shoes I'm (pretty sure) I'm wearing for the wedding shipped a lot earlier than...
Do we need a "Before I get married" to-do list?
A few weeks back there was a discussion thread on 20 Something Bloggers asking everyone what was on their "Before I Get Married" to do list? At first I scoffed at the question - why should there be something that you can't do anymore just because you...
It's takes the (wedding) cake!
I was pursuing some blogs this morning, and was checking out Boston Bride's blog, since she had commented on a recent post of mine. I'm always interested in what other brides-to-be are doing!! Anyway, she had a picture of what she picked out for her ...
Photo Booth "Flair"
I was over at Katelin's reading about how she went to a Bridal Expo this weekend. (Shudder. I think that's my worst nightmare - I couldn't deal with all of those brides and overzealous vendors in one place! I don't do well in big crowds lol.) She pos...

Birthday Weekend awesomeness
Oh what a weekend. Between the birthday celebrations, BBQs, hitting up the beach, and getting baby fever for the first time, this was such a good weekend. Except for when my eye kept being itchy all weekend and I woke up in the middle of the night sc...
Should I stay or should I go now?
I hate Save the Date cards. There I said it. We won't be doing them. Anyone who is important to us will know the date without a paper reminder. My mom also hates them because as she says, then you have no excuse when it comes to going to the wedding....
Judgy Wudgy Was a Bear...
Dave and I went to a wedding on Saturday, the first one since we've been engaged. It was the wedding of a close friend of Dave's, and we all had an awesome time. And I wasn't hungover on Sunday, so that was a WIN for me. (Mainly due to Dave being sma...
The first of the wedding dreams...
I had my first wedding related dreams this weekend. They weren't nightmares per se, but just shit happening that was completely weird, or going wrong. Maybe because we had some wedding drama this last week? I don't remember the first dream, but he...
The one where I give you an update in bullet points cause I dont have time for anything else.
Oh man these last few days have been insane! But, we have gotten a bunch of wedding stuff done.- I got my dress!!! Arielle and my other Co-MOH Allison came with, and I'm so excited. I also immediately decided against a veil, since I hated it the m...
April Fools - work edition
My company has a history of playing pranks on each other, and April Fools day is no exception. Already this morning one of the managers set up a fake email and forwarded it to our CEO basically saying that he violated the spam email act and the FBI w...
Tuesday Things
I got nothin. So what do I got? This random crap that you see below:- My mom is putting a deposit down on the venue for the wedding this week. HOLY CRAP!! I'm so excited. Less than a year!!- I got Dave an AWESOME birthday gift. The man turns 30...
The Search for THE Dress - Attempt 2
Today was day #2 of THE dress search. My mom and I went out to Long Island to go to a place called "The Wedding Salon". I found this place online and wanted to go because they had a variety of designers that they carried, and I had liked some of the ...
The Search for THE Dress - Attempt 1
I know, I've barely been engaged 2 months and I'm already trying on wedding dresses! Must be the event planner in me, I want things done already!! I had a half day at work today, so my mom took a late lunch (good thing she works nearby!) and we wen...
March 20, 2010
A year from today I will be getting MARRIED!!THAT'S SO FREAKING WEIRD!! While the weirdness of being engaged has worn off, it still feels weird to say that I'm getting married, or that Dave will be my husband. I'm not mature enough to have a husban...
Ain't no "Cookie Cutter" for me!
Hey! I'm not here today, I'm over at The Spotted Ottoman talking about being labeled as a "cookie cutter bride". GO NOW!:)...
Tiaras, Beads, See-through Dresses & Bare Asses
Sounds like an awesome Mardi Gras party, right? (Or a really bad porno. What?) But oh no, we're talking about the Lacey & Dave Engagement Party Extravaganza!! Holy crap what a night. I knew it was going to be good when I got on the train to meet ...
We officially have an officiant!
First let me put out there that I don't want this blog to turn into a nothing-but-wedding-talk blog. But, I've only been engaged for about a week, so I get a little more time to ramble on about it. :)As the title states, we have an officiant! I kn...
Fiancée Fail
It's only like, Day 2 of being engaged and I'm already failing as a bride-to-be. It's become pretty clear early on that I'm not your average bride, all giddy and full of girlish delight and thoughts on how exactly my dress should be, what colors I wa...
"Shut Up!"
Today was my Valentine's Day. Dave and I made plans to celebrate it today, since Dave has a show to put on, on the 14th. No biggie, Valentine's Day isn't huge to us anyway, so it didn't matter to me to celebrate it a week early. Our plan was to walk ...
