And Then There Was One

April 22, 2009 by Roxy

Last Monday my father passed away, which means there will not be a second wedding. On the bright side this means I no longer have to quickly plan a second wedding, regardless of how simple.

In other news, my dress alterations should be done when I pick up my dress Friday and Jordan and I had too much cake today (and there’s more in the fridge!). I have two tiaras and one necklace to try on with my dress. Starting next week I will hopefully have a little more time for wedding planning, so look for more posts in the near future!

Last weekend Jordan and I applied for our marriage license. As of today we can get married. :-)

Two Weddings

April 6, 2009 by Roxy

Not every bride gets to wear their gown twice. That’s my current plan though. We planned our August wedding with the hopes that my dad would be healthy enough to travel. It has become increasingly less likely as his health has continued to decline. As a result, we are having a much simpler, sooner ceremony near him while still going ahead with the plans for August.

Since it will be immediate family only we don’t need to worry about proper invitations or RSVPs. We’ve already gotten volunteers to help make a bouquet, cake, and take pictures. This makes the planning easier. Making it more difficult is not knowing if my dad will be in the hospital or at the home, so we’re planning for either.

While it’s more work now, it’s not much more. And I get to be a bride twice. :-)
