Yesterday, Brian and I went to Men's Wearhouse to get tuxes for the wedding. There was a crazy long line and we realized we went right when school got out during prom season...didn't think that one through. It was funny though to watch. (Although I suddenly felt ancient!) The boys all brought their dates to pick out their tuxes for them. These girls weren't playing around. They brought their dresses along so they could get that oh-so-classy matching bow tie! But it was tricky because apparently the guy can't see your prom dress??? That was new to me, what teenage boy cares about what your prom dress looks like? I'm pretty sure all he is thinking about is how he's going to get that dress off! The girl in line behind us was obnoxiously giddy. The girls in front of us were very concerned they didn't have the exact shade of purple in a vest. So anyway, it's finally our turn and we sit down and the lady asks us when our prom is. After looking at our stunned faces, I think it clicked that we actually weren't the oldest high school students ever! We are getting married. Yeah, that pretty much set the tone for the rest of that meeting. She tried to talk us into that colored bow tie...with a black vest...at a formal wedding. I'm sorry to those of you who had the matching bridesmaids dresses and vest/bow tie combos. (If you got married before '97, it doesn't count...you just didn't know any better!) But I HATE them. I think they are just so silly! After I planned the infamous red, white, and blue wedding, I just can't stand to look at colored vests anymore! Ok...I'm done! So we picked out a tux, vests, bow ties, cuff links, and shoes. Pretty easy. Would've been easier if our lady wasn't straight off of Planet Confused. But it was quick and painless. Now for my ladies to get some fab dresses and we'll be set!



BTW...For those of you counting:
Only 200 Days to go!!!!!
