Never too late! Cueing the music to Delta Dawn! Next up is Texas When I Die. Can I sing along? It's impossible for me *not* to! :-)
"I always did like a good piece o' tail!"
The fact that there are long standing magazines devoted to weddings just boggles my mind!
Getting married is stressful enough just 'cause of the life changes...who wants to add a whole 'nother level of expense and headache?? I don't get it.
It was Sonya's wedding that is the example for me to NOT follow. They did formal photographs for two hours right before the ceremony. She here she was, all primped and perfect, standing there under hot photo lights, posing with every mathmatical combination of people. One of just her, one of her and Tim, one of her and her mother, one of Sonya and her mother and Tim. One of Tim with his dad, one of Sonya and Tim and both dads, one with both moms, one with moms and dads, one with the Bride and the bridesmaids, one with the groom and just the best man, one with just the maid of honor and the bride, one with the whole wedding party with grandma, one with the whole wedding party without grandma..... well you get the picture.
There were two things really wrong about it. First, it took all the meaning out of the ceremony. by the time they all ran back and hid for awhile while the guests arrived, they had been together two hours taking pictures, as if the whole point was the 'photo op' and not the actual wedding. The second thing was that Sonya was visibly miserable. She was sick, hadn't eaten, had thrown up twice, and looked like a pissed-off little brat. Now... I stopped the photographer twice when she was swaying and said "She needs a break". I'd lead her off where people would try to force donuts and water down her and make her happy, which was impossible. What she needed was to get out of that dress, have a ciagrette and a beer and relax.
Just make sure you charge the same as the massive planning guides, and you'll make a mint.
ROFLMAO!!!!
Hey, you weren't here last night so I hafta repeat myself on somethin'. Everybody else scuse me.... I got that Chris Ledoux CD last night - "Horsepower" :-) And earlier this week I got the Gretchen Wilson CD. You have *got* to hear this entire Gretchen CD. I'm not kidding - she is like Tanya Tucker at the beginning! I was 'fraid when I got the CD that "Redneck Woman" would be the only good song on it. But, this just rocks! You have *got* to hear it! :-)
Mmmmm.... a mint...
Yes, Silk is ~right out~ ;~D
~chuckling~
~smiles~
Got cotton?
The title song of the CD "Here for the Party" is even better! :-)
Legolas' dress would be too much for your wedding...
Yup, no elf-nighties allowed!
*snif* my friends, you bow to no one...*snif*
