It is now officially 2010! I hope that everyone rang in a safe and happy holiday! I always get sort of sad after the holidays because everyone spends all this time preparing, planning, and anticipating Christmas and New Years, and then in just a two short weeks its all over and its back to the regular grind. The new year is a nostalgic time for me because I like to look back at the past year and look at my accomplishments (both big and small) but I like to look forward and see what new challenges, goals, and obstacles are in store for me. I like to embrace change 2010 is SO going to be my year!


Of course I speaketh of my wedding, 10-9-10! Obvs..wedding planning is in my future.. but maybe more importantly, wedding saving. I have found just about every vendor that I am going to work with and now we are just working on putting deposits down. So now its time for the most nerve-racking and emotional part of the wedding planning process...The Dress! I have mixed emotions about the dress. I feel like January is a very blah month. Important decisions should not be made in January! Yet my knot timeline says that this is the month to start the whole bridal gown shopping process. Ugh. And..what if I get cold feet about the dress? I just need to make sure that I am 100% in love with it...and I know I am going to be so picky, analyzing every detail and every angle of how I look in the dress. I think I have an amazing support system to bring with me, girls who will tell me point blank what they like and don't like about each dress. But I hope that everyone loves my dress and that not one person has a critical comment or else that comment will be stuck in my head! Here are a few of the pics that I have been collecting as wedding inspiration. I am starting to see a common theme of romantic hairstyles and easy decorations. I love every one of these pictures!
