It's 17 days until stormwolfe and dukayn tie the proverbial knot.  I'm still making the guestbook and i've been consulted in the embroidery of her dress.  It's fun to be involved and a really nice feeling that someone trusts me enough to be involved in something as important as a wedding day.  Yesterday I was helping with the skirt embroidery while another of her friends was there to work out hair.  This other friend is getting married in a year, but is already immersed in the whole thing of dress/ tradition/ fights with her mum, etc etc.
A number of other people from my circle of friends are getting married over the next couple of months.   There seems to be a massive amount of preparation, arguments and money-saving to go through to pull off a wedding.  I've only  known my Gareth for a year (our first anniversary will be march 4.  miss lilly and i have some planning to do!)  but I'm wondering if it's not too early to start with this whole wedding planning thing.  I know I'm probably just letting the fact that everyone around me is taking the leap affect my jugdement, but on the other hand, the sooner I start, the less stressful it may be in the end!  I've been saying the easiest thing to do would be the chuck a kegger and invite a celebrant.   Seems to be the cheapest and easiest option!
But then there's a pretty dress involved and i like pretty dresses, and flowers are nice, and it would be good to have photos to remember the day, and a live musician for people to dance too...*sigh* better start saving i guess.  I'm not getting any younger.
