What to do first!

Well now that it is sinking in that I am engaged, I am starting to think about all of the planning ahead! There is certainly a lot to do when thinking about planning a wedding! I am beginning to think or rather starting to accept the fact that I am not your typical bride. When people ask simple questions like "What are your colors" or "What type of dress do you like" I have no answers. It is not something I ever really thought about...so I am finding that these are difficult questions to answer if you are the oddball girl who never really had the perfect wedding dreams. The funny thing is that I have long hoped and dreamed of being married to this man, but have not really ever thought about the ceremony that gets us married. I was not the little girl that had huge barbie weddings or dreamed of the Princess Diana event...I was the tomboy more interested in dirt and trouble than all those "girly" things. So now I have to work extra hard...I don't even know what some of the words mean! It is like learning a whole new language, sweetheart line, A-line, Empire waist....this is just crazy.
I am lucky though, I have an amazing mother, friends, and a soon to be sister-in-law that I am sure are going to make planning a breeze. In fact, after a four hour round trip drive with my soon to be S-I-L I think I have some ideas about color, theme, and bridesmaid dresses! So next step is to see if the crazy ideas I have come up with look okay in reality!
I will keep you up to date on how things...on more than just wedding stuff I promise!

Don't worry - if you spend enough time reading bridal magazines, you'll get the hang of it ;)
