Everything is coming together

Hello peeps! being a while.. i forgot i had a blog for a minute there...

I have been very busy over the past couple of weeks trying to get things rolling with all the wedding plans. I am excited to say that things are coming along very well. We have being in touch with almost all the vendors that will be participating in the wedding.

Our caterer is awesome! get ready to surprise your taste buds

Our photographer is on another level... he is young and very talented and I am confident that he would do an excellent job...The MC is WOW...u have to be there to understand what I am talking about.

I was watching bridezilla the other day and after all the hard work that this one bride put in (or not) in planning the wedding reception, people started leaving really early.. there were only about 20 people left at the wedding at about 8pm.. That sucked. This got me thinking..

what if people dont show up... and if they do.. how can I make sure they stay to the very end...

Of course I know that we are nigerians and where there is food and music there would be people. but .. u never know right???? waaa anyway i shall only think positive thots

jumbled thots

Hey guys,
I cant believe we only have seven months until the wedding... so by this time next year I will be a MRS.. uuuuunnnnnbelievable!!!! Anyhoo... I am so excited.
Like i said in my last post, I am working on several DIY projects. I just finished a sample of one of those projects and it is BEAUTIFUL.. i cant wait to go into full production.

I have set a goal of august 30th to accomplish several tasks that are hanging such as: the invites, save the dates, our engagement shoot, the website etc.. i just want to know that i am finished with these so I could focus on other things.

i got in touch with our awesome photographer yesterday and so hopefully we shoud be shooting the pictures in august in a beautiful undisclosed location..lol..te he. That should be fun...

I found two beautiful ankara fabrics for the wedding, I need one more..still looking waa..

I am soo sorry if it is hard to read this post because it is all over the place.. thats kinda how my mind is at the moment...all over ze place.

please keep us in your prayers oh..we need it!

DIY projects

Although Chimdi and I would love to have an elaborate platinum style wedding.. the truth is that we dont have that kind of money to spend frivolously (we accept donations however from our guests who would love to make this happen lol) j/k..

I have being looking at some "Do it yourself" (DIY) projects to undertake for the wedding. And I have come across several. Yesterday, my sister and I went to down town and I randomly picked up peacock feathers because i figured I could incorporate them into something other than as a hair piece..

I came across something today and i think i may use it.. This lady made hers into a pencil...i may use this for my guest book...look out for it.. Ill make sure to share as to how the process went!

igbo bride (zilla)?

I had a little melt down this week. emphasis on little however,

im so glad that I have my diadi by my side during this planning process. He has being my strength! for real!

Soo lovah if you are reading this..just wanted to tell you how awesome you are and yes I couldnt be happier, because happy is what happens when all your dreams come true isnt it?

Wedding day dreams

I read about these phenomenons in several bridal magazines, however it was not until recently that i started to experience them for myself.

Once a week, I have these dreams about getting married but it is not the typical happy wedding, its one in which everything possible could go wrong. The worst one I had was a couple weeks ago. I dreamt that I was convinced to get married on a day that wasnt the day we had being planning for all along. All the plans we made went to the gutter, and to top it all off we were getting married in a barn. (EEEk!!). The bridal gown I had on, had stains all over it and I could not get it off... it was a nightmare. I remember just crying and crying about how this was not how I wanted my wedding to be like and all that... then I woke up Thank God.

So what sparked up this discussion about wedding day dreams you may ask???? Well Ill tell you the answer! I had another of these dreams yesterday night!!! waa!!! for the life o fme I cant seem to remember what it was about but Ill be sure to share when I do..

Moving on to other news...planning a wedding ko easy oh!!! chi'm o

Picking a bridesmaid dress has turned into more work than I envisioned and thats all I am going to say about that. Wa

Oh yah.. one of my bridesmaid signed me up for bridezilla... we will see what happens lol
