here is the fabulous suit ensamble that my hot groom & his groomsmen will be sporting on our big day [which is, only 59 days away thankyouverymuch].  Men's Warehouse's very own Chocolate Tuxedo:

a groom in boots

My FH loves his cowboy boots.

I remember the very first night I met him, looking down at his feet, like..."seriously?!? what in the H are you wearing on your feet?" I still sorta think that, but I realize that he loves them & their comfort, so I concede.  I do really like that they make him a little bit taller :) I love to feel short next to him!  He's a couple of inches taller than me as it is, but I like to wear flats while he wears his boots.

So these are what we finally chose:

[there is a reason I'm not putting the link & picture source, but I am more than happy to share this good deal with you, if you insist]

After a little shopping around, and trying on...we found the perfect pair.  Of course they didn't have his size in the store...in the color that we wanted.  So I stalked them online [ahem, without the style number or any information] and I finally found them.  I'm so excited to see these beauties peeking out from under his chocolate brown tuxedo pants and adding a few inches to his handsome stature. 

only the best for our wedding day :)

i bought this.

Yesterday I bought this dress for option #2 Rehearsal & Dinner dress.  The first one, that I already received is wonderfully cute, but I'm not sure if it is Wedding Weekend appropriate [more along the lines of girls night out maybe].  So here is option two:

I know I said that I wasn't going to post, maybe I lied.  I just so happened to remember the FABULOUS giveaway over at one of the bridal blogs that I stalk  read regularly. I admit, I may or may not have a problem with following the lives of other brides via blogger. nbd.  Anyway, this is the dream giveaway.  Heather over at Live.Love.Laugh is giving away a ring dish.  I have been swooooning over the ring bearer/ring dishes at Wise Impressions for months. Literally. Months.  I really want one, but have been trying hard to be a good little bride to be [only 2 months away!] and not spend money... However, here is the PERFECT opportunity.

GIVEAWAY!!

WHOOO doesn't LOVE a giveaway? I know I do.  And I'm competitive, so I'm in it to win it! Get yourself on over to Heather's blog and join in the fun!

Have a wonderful weekend!

my feathers [are ruffled]...

but my hubby wubby is at the store getting me a bottle of wine.  j.u.s.t. what the doctor disgruntled coach ordered.  I could do without another day like this.  I will spare you details, because I wouldn't want to scare the 7 followers that I do have away...

I will be away this weekend, for classes & to finish enjoying the bottle of wine that hubster is buying now. love.him.dearly. see.you.monday. [today, periods seem to fit my mood perfectly.]
