Bridal Show

I got to attend another bridal show at Lakeview with my mom, Sara and Renee. Those are always so much fun! Last year when i attended the same bridal show with my mom i felt so overwhelmed. There were so many vendors and I had nothing confirmed. This time I had specific goals. We talked to florists and tuxedo places. With color swatch in hand, I approached each of the booths pertaining to these things.

Many of the florists were from the Morgantown area and I think I prefer to go with someone more local. I was really looking for ideas for bouquets. Aside from bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres, there won't be many more flowers. I know nothing about flowers. I found one bouquet that I really liked and I had Renee hold it for a picture. The colors are not exactly what I want, but I think I like the lilies.



I also found two tuxedo rental places that I really liked. They both have a color that matched my swatch exactly. I am still deciding what color the pants and jacket will be.

The bridal show ended with a show of dresses. In the middle of the show three guys in tuxes took the stage. The next 10-15 minutes consisted of them dancing around. Other than being incredibly amusing, I have no idea what the point of this was.



Although, I didn't win any of the prize drawings at the event, I got a call a few days later from the Mary Kay representative who said I won a $10 gift card. Yay! I had a really great day with some of the most important people in my life. I really appreciate them taking time out of their schedules to join me. Sometimes I feel like this wedding is all I talk about. I am so ready for it to just get here already. Just 264 more days.
