According to "professionals" we should have locked in our florist back in January. Who thinks about flowers during Winter in New England? Apparently The Knot thinks by putting a pink "!" next to the checkbox on "THIS MONTHS TO DOS" will make me conquer this task quicker. Like I need a pink exclamation point to tell me I'm behind. The "gurus" over at The Knot obviously don't take real world circumstances (or bank accounts) into consideration. Come on, you have a multimedia editor and youth crisis counselor financing their own wedding; bear with us, people! Please, back in Jan, all Joe & I knew was that we were getting married. We did a whole lot in those first four months, as you can tell. It wasn't even until the end of March we even had a place to hold our wedding! We figured we'd just have you all follow us down to City Hall on 9.26.09 and maybe have a pubcrawl after.Flowers! Who cares about flowers when you don't even have a freakin' place to party!?
Since Joe & I have stepped up our game since January (actually have a place, someone to marry us, and someone to pla
y a few tunes for our guests), my mission this month (four months late), is to get a stinkin' florist. However, every FAQs list online for florist is for your typical "wedding florist" and there's no way we're paying that kind of mark up. We're going with a wholesaler, who I have no idea what you are supposed to ask...and I absolutely dread making redundant phone calls around to vendors. (Wedding planning ain't all it's cracked up to be ladies). But speaking of "crack," I think Joe only bought my new Crackberry so I wouldn't have excuses to not get wedding $%&* done. What can I really come up with when I have phone, email, and internet at my disposal no matter where I am?Oh yeah, "Sorry babe. I was blogging!"
