confession

Hi guys. So as you can see by the title of this post i will be confessing something. I'm sure some women are with me in this secret addiction. My days are sometimes planned around my addiction, and it influences my dreams and i tend to bring it up in conversation....my addiction is......


WEDDING SHOWS. 


Yes I know, lame and stereotypical as that is, it's true. I love watching them, from Say Yes to the dress, Wedding SOS and four weddings, i love almost every wedding show....that I've seen anyways.  See i was an odd child, i didn't dream of getting married to a prince, or becoming a princess when i was younger, i wanted to be a veterinarian or a librarian (my love of books started at a very early age). So I think now at this point in my life, because i hadn't already done so, I've become obsessed with planning my wedding. Perhaps its just having too much spare time on my hands, or my subconscious telling me that i really do want a relationship--which i don't believe i do, but whatever the cause it is my recent obsession...along with many other things such as the song Fake Drugs by Hollerado....yes there is my shameless plug for today.   Now, most people believe that the wedding is for the bride, and the groom is barely anything more than a prop. I disagree. I think that the groom should have input too....as long as he doesn't end up dashing or distorting the bride's dream day horribly.   I love weddings because it is a joyful time and you get to see family and friends that you might not otherwise see....really its just a big party.  Crazy shit goes down at weddings, well the ones I've been to at least, and that may say something about the company i keep lol.  They are always fun and if its your wedding, you remember that day for the rest of your life. 


Now i will divulge my secret dream for a wedding....well one that I've established so far.  Firstly is the matter of the dress. Although i haven't tried any wedding dresses on, and therefore do not know how that particular style of dress would fit on my body, i do have a style in mind. I want a dropped waist gown, I also want hints of black or red on it....depending on what colour of dresses my bridesmaids were wearing. The hints of colour could be a ribbon in the middle, or any other way to add some colour to the dress.  The ribbon would be black if my bridesmaids were going to wear deep purple, my favorite colour. However, I have also entertained the idea that red is a beautiful colour as well, and i may just put my bridesmaids in that colour, and then my ribbon or detailing on my dress would match them....see i don't have everything planned out perfectly yet...lol. Next is the cake. I want a three tier cake. I want red velvet cake with cream cheese icing. The cake will be covered in white fondant and designed with back icing designs. I also either want red, or dark purple edible flowers on the cake as well.  The last area that I've decided on is the season. I want a winter wedding, and to be brought in riding a hoarse drawn sleigh....which is particularly strange because i am a summer baby, perhaps that is why i have such a fascination with winter?? anyways, i do not want the wedding close to Christmas, so i think sometime mid to late February would suit best.  See i don't have every detail planned, but i have an idea of what i want, and i realise that I'm missing the most important aspect...the groom, but i have years until I'll be ready for marriage, and perhaps by that point i will have found someone...If not I'll still throw my wedding, minus the ceremony and just have the party! lol. I do expect my addiction to wane overtime, and will fade eventually, but for right now it suits me just fine. 


But, i do have CONTROL on my addiction. I do not let it interfere with my life too much, and i didn't disrupt my sleep habits to get up and watch the royal wedding....a point of pride for me. I caught the highlights and watched most of it at a later time, when it was actually suitable for my person to be awake. lol


anyways, a personal post, letting you get to know me more. even some of my closest friends were not aware of my addiction, and now I've told the world---well whoever reads this anyways. lol anyways enjoy your week. I know i will with the sun beating down on me and the weather starting to feel like summer :)


xoxo
