'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
E-mail Jilli about the mascara, that's what I did.
Are you doing your hair yourself or having someone do it? If you're having someone do it, make an appointment for a test run.
Where are you thinking you want to go on your honeymoon?

Or, just tell me to shut up if this isn't helpful.
sj, I was just about to suggest the Hivemind could help with about 2/3 of Teppy's freak-out list.

Nope, definitely helpful!
I do have an appointment for a test run for my hair, but I feel like I at least need to be able to tell her up or down, you know? (Actually, my problem is that I want to wear it down because I don't like the way I look in pictures with it up, but I'm afraid that wearing it down will be too hot.)

Northern California -- our problem is that we know where we want to go; we just haven't sat down to actually book flights, car, accomodations, etc.
Tips for writing wedding vows
I have some stuff bookmarked, but, again, our problem is that we haven't sat down to actually DO it.
And we still need to get a marriage license -- not a huge deal, but Tim has to take time off work to do it, and once again, he just needs to pick a date, take the morning off, and DO IT. (Well, we have to go together, but I have a lot of free time right now.)
Have your stylist test one up and one down do.
We finally got our vows written by taking a couple of hours, the week of the wedding, going to a coffee shop, sitting separately, and writing them. My problem was I wanted to get too much in! But also didn't want to stand up there boring people for hours. I think it worked out in the end... well we are still happily married!

Bring a picture of your wedding gown, tell your stylist what type of jewelery you plan on wearing, and just have her try things until you're happy.
TCG and I didn't write our vows together, we just each wrote on our own what we wanted to say.

That sounds like fun.

And explain the difficulty. Your stylist may have a reccomendation that will solve the problem. Like a half-up, half-down, tendrils or ringlets deal.

Watch you end up in San Francisco while I'm in Columbus. Heh.
HEY STEPH YOU'RE GETTING MARRIED WOOOOOOO.
I've been really surprised and a bit disappointed, that none of my recent couples have wanted to write their own vows.
I'm happy to provide, but I think it really takes something away from the moment.
I'd probably send out multiple drafts, in the hugely unlikely event, of course. "People with the blue vows, forget it. I'm working off th e buff ones now." But that is part of the reason I probably won't need them, huh?
Hubby and I weren't too particular about vows, we were just interested in legality. We sat down with the preacher we'd finally found and looked at their standard vows, removed the Obey part--mid '80s, that still cropped up--and called it good. I don't remember a bit of what I promised, though I do enjoy telling people that I haven't official sworn to anything since my wedding day.
