It fits!

Thought I would post a quick update on how things are going in regards to wedding stuff!!

1) My dress arrived. It fits! I'm doing a bit of alteration to it, which I knew I would be doing before it got here. It has this halter that ties in the back, but it's AGES long, and I don't really like the look of it. I'm either going to cut off bits OR I experimented with criss-crossing it over my chest and tying it at the back, which looks better, I think. We don't have a full length mirror so it's a bit difficult to say. Might get a full length mirror soon, I have lived too long without one!

2) I bought these shoes forever ago to wear. Cal calls them "sand shoes." Not sure exactly what I'd call them... but they're not formal footwear, by any means. I think they look quirky with the dress. Again, kind of want a full length mirror to get the whole picture (actually taking a photo doesn't get me as up close as I want). Anyway. That's a thing.

3) In case I didn't mention it, Cal's wearing suspenders for our photos. We're going to look awesome!

4) Full photo session payment and full celebrant payment are both IN!

5) We went to New Farm Park on Sunday. It's a bit out of our way, but we're definitely in love. The bench area was perfect, there's another area with sort of arches and vines trailing up them with flowers that's beautiful, and it's right on the river and there's this cool place on the rocks I want pictures near... but most importantly, my friends, is the playground. Yes, the playground. There is a stone dragon in a sandpit with hatched eggs around it. Not even joking. That is more perfect than anything ever for us.

6) We also got suitcases! We got a medium sized one that's a dark brown with a reddish undertone, and a smaller one that's more of a really dark brown. They look slightly worn and the clasps are a bit rusty. Perfect!

Aaaand... I think that's it. Not sure if we'll have the actual wedding at New Farm or... yeah I mean, maybe we will. There were some secluded areas. And we wanted to go into the city anyway after. I'm just SO nervous about getting my dress dirty! It is SO WHITE. I am going to spill something on it, just you wait. Maybe I'll wear something else to the actual wedding and save this for the pictures (clearly the more important thing.) ;)
