Wow! Only 2 days away from getting hitched!
Yes, for all of you who don’t know, Rick and I are getting married. This Saturday. In Vegas. At the Graceland Wedding Chapel. Apparently Elvis will walk me down the aisle and sing two songs! (We still haven’t picked them out yet! Any suggestions?) The wedding is Saturday afternoon and followed by dinner at Tableau at the Wynn. I can’t wait for dinner - they have nine-course tasting menus, one for meat-eaters and one for vegetarians like me! I ate there once before - two summers ago - and it was just amazing! Expensive, but totally worth it.
Some folks have asked where Rick and I are registered.. I keep thinking they mean for the baby.. But then they say they mean for the wedding. Well, just to fill you all in, we’re not registered anywhere for this wedding. We are planning on having a real wedding reception and the rest in a year - when I am not pregnant - so we’re waiting to register when we have that one. We’re thinking we’ll just do a honeymoon registry too.. but, clearly, that is a year away so none of that has been setup yet. For now, this is the year of the baby.. Next year can be the year of the wedding.
So I am excited but still don’t have a dress to wear. I bought a perfect one but I’ve gained too much weight with the baby.. It doesn’t fit over my chest! (Yes! The baby tummy fits but the boobs don’t!) I frantically went to David’s Bridal last night to try to find an alternative but nothing worked. Everything there is too formal, too much or just too God-awful. Since I’m only 2 days away, I think I’ll have to take a personal day tomorrow to go shopping and find something. Nothing like waiting until the last minute, right? The good - or bad - news is that Rick also doesn’t have anything picked out yet to wear… He thinks he is going to buy an outfit in Vegas on Saturday morning before the wedding. That makes my day-before dress shopping look less crazy, or so I want to think.
