As for the weather at your wedding – I hope it turns out well for you. Our wedding day was slightly overcast, but no rain (until later that evening) and our photographer said that it was best to have some clouds for outdoor pix because then you aren’t squinting in every picture. So I wish a no rain and partly cloudy wedding day for you!

PS- I bet those are hives. From nerves. Breathe in, breathe out. Stop scratching.

Lots and lots going on!

Every manufacturer uses their own dress size measurements. Big problem.
And then you’re lucky to fall within the range the high masters of confection deem worthy of catering to.

Enjoy the bachelorette parties, and don’t forget to enjoy your wedding day.

Weddings always have their ups and downs but are always fine in the end, as others have attested. My biggest issue was that my father, who suffered from depression, was in a psychiatric institution at the time which didn’t allow the patients out overnight! So my mom and husband-to-be and I had to go get him for the rehearsal dinner, bring him back late that night, and then my sister had to pick him up on HER way to the wedding so that he’d be there in time to give me away! In the end all went well and he recovered and lived relatively happily for the next 20 years until he died of old age at 92. And, my husband and I are celebrating anniversary #22 this year. And the story of my father makes our wedding story a good tale to tell anyone who is worried about their own wedding. So there you go!

Uggh… I feel your pain on the bathing suit sizing! I recently downsized to a size 4 in “normal” clothes but my bathing suit is a size 10!!!! WTF?! Why for the sake of women’s sanity would they size UP bathing suits. Bad sales tactic if you ask me. Have they never heard of vanity sizing?

I actually bought another new bathing suit recently and managed to figure out a way of avoiding the above mentioned drama. Allow me to share – Take 3 varying sizes of the same swimsuit into the changeroom with you. Try them all on. DO NOT LOOK AT THE LABEL. Choose the one that fits you best. Again, DON’T LOOK AT THE LABEL. Pay for the suit, seal it up in a bag and tie it tight. Go home and instruct a trusted friend/spouse/fiance/parent to cut the tag out of the suit and burn it. Now, you have a fabulous new swimsuit and you never have to think about what size it is whenever you put it on. :)

Good luck with the itching thing… Sounds icky.

Delurking to share my Wedding Anxiety Dreams:

1. The priest “forgot” to include the ring-exchange part of the ceremony, necessitating that a second, CREEPY priest come in LATER to do it.

2. The cake ended up being crappy supermarket carrot cake with orange frosting carrots on top, which they cut and served before we even arrived at the reception.

3. At the rehearsal, we were all dressed up in our wedding garb for some reason, and some weird guy showed up outside the church and SPRAYED ME WITH A FIRE HOSE. Then, all of the guest walked all over my dress with their dirty shoes.

The obvious solution for these dreams is to STOP SLEEPING NOW – you can catch up after the wedding!
