I'd like to think it doesn't. I honestly never would've predicted I'd get this much into wedding planning. It may be that my fantasies involving that day really only included beer and schnitzel so now that it comes down to the nitty gritty of it I have to research the heck out of it. I started out by buying 3 or 4 wedding magazines then dragging Joshua to the library. In one of these magazines was a list of the best wedding blogs. My interest was piqued to say the least. So I got out my trusty lap top and subscribed to all of the blogs in Google reader. Most of the sites are run by professionals in the bridal industry who show the weddings they have created or ones that inspire them. I found these useful when it came to narrowing down color ideas and overall tone of the wedding but to tell you the truth they are so overwhelmingly stylized that they don't help much. The other day I realized that these blogs are sort of the high fashion or couture runway shows. You love how it looks but there is no realistic way you would ever wear (or afford) them. One gem stuck out though. Wedding Bee. Tell all your friends that are engaged, this is by far the best site I know. In fact, it's no lie that reading this blog all the time made me excited to blog about our wedding plans with everyone. So I basically spend all my time now reading Wedding Bee updates or wedding window shopping. True Confessions time: there was a 2 week period where I went through all three seasons of Veronica Mars and at the same time went through the entire Wedding section of Etsy. You have no idea how long that is. I don't know why I started but I couldn't quit.
So here I am putting off real life (not packing my apartment up) and talking about weddings.
