they have arrived.

when we went to pick our bridesmaids dresses we had waited a little too long. this is what my very first blog was about. i thought three and a half months was plenty of time but apparently not. . the single dress that i could stand from david's bridal wouldn't be in until the 8th of october if we bought it full price THAT day.. just two weeks before the wedding date which didn't give us much room for mistake. but i decided to go ahead and get it anyway. which was a mistake because when i took the rest of my bridesmaids to try there's on it turned out david's bridal was supposed to have pulled that particular style off the floor that day because the dresses were labeled two sizes too small. so when girls were ordering their dresses and they came in they didn't fit. so we took the chance and ordered them anyway. geesh i know a lot of risks im taking with these stinkin things. haha. well it all turned out ok in the end because i got a call and an e-mail yesterday saying the dresses had arrived. so me and rock went and picked them up this afternoon and it was nerve rackingk because i thought the sizes would be all screwed up but when we went to rock's house to try them on it zipped up with ease and she looked amazing in them. the only problem is that now i look at the dress it looks like crap.
hahah. . im so indecisive. =]

is this illegal? haha

. . we had originally planned to go with flowers for the centerpieces on all our tables but personally i dont care too much for flowers. my mom is amazing with creating grand flower centerpieces but they were spendy . they were running about fifty dollars a table and at 13 tables well that can turn into a pretty penny. . so we completely scratched the idea of flower centerpieces and decided to go with a big gold centerpiece of some kind we went to hobby lobby to look for something like a candle holder or a bowl or something that would look good on a huge table.. we found some pretty good stuff but they were like $80 and that was out of the question . so we've been holding out on centerpieces and just waiting to see if we could come across anything that was more of what we were looking for and in our price range. well my mom is a persistant thing and the flower decorator at michael's does side work for weddings where she makes "grand" centerpieces that we can rent for twenty bucks a piece! that was like music to my ears because i've seen her work and it's phenominal! she's amazing i have full faith that what she makes us will tie everything together and make it look amazing so we have an appointment with her sunday to take a look at some of her stuff to see what she can come up with!
