Update ...


Back here writing again , and since this blog will soon come to an END .... I have a confession to make. About two weeks to our mairie wedding and 4 to our proper big proper wedding in Budapest and I am getting scared. Mind you not about marrying DF , that's all good no worries there.

Its just that while I enjoy organizing the event and making decisions about details I somehow forgot that this whole big hoopla will happen around me!I will the the bride this time , quite hard to fathom. Brides are meant to be blushing and delicate and ladylike , whilst I well i can be quite cynical and i cuss and well not so delicate even with spanx and south beach diet. Hmmm.

I guess I got caught up in the organization aspects of it ... and doing the ultimate event for us is great, but this time the show pony is us. The thought is scary though I'm trying to calm myself by focusing on the fact that all/ most of the people there will be close friends and I will be happy to see them.

Speaking of organizational aspects I managed to have the first big fight with my mom, which is quite traumatic(though now we are ok... till round 2) Obviously she is paying for the whole thing, and has been great about it, I mean we got the band we got the place, the catering , really we are spoilt.( Though we did compromise on things) But now when we were speaking of adding some personal touches, ( naming the tables after our special restaurants in Paris with photos ...etc ) she was completely against it and found about a million reasons. One side of me wants to let it go , but on the other hand it would be sweet and for us meaningful, and I'm worried that I would regret not adding those touches, and giving in.Not to mention that DF would really love to have it. I just feel like in weddings its so often the little things people notice . But maybe I'm misguided...
