568 days until a life time...


Not every post has to be about wedding stuff... I guess after listening to some classically mushy music, I'm reflecting a little on how lucky I am.

I look forward to seeing him everyday, and miss him every moment he's gone, he makes me laugh, he thinks I'm funny, he gets me and I get him. We are totally different, and still have so much in common.

plus the most important thing.... He loves me just the way I am.


568 days for a life time. But 8 years of learning everday why I'm going to love him for the next 60 years!

The wedding cake....

I like the idea of a small cake for Olov and I.. and then individual cakes for everyone else. It's a no fuss no muss kinda thing.. I'm going to look into it.




Also thinking of what song we should walk down the isle together to..... I can't get this feeling that the best song truly lies in the vocals of Bob Marley...

BUT WHICH ONE???

Bob Marley & The Wailers – Stir It Up - Original Album Version

Bob Marley & The Wailers – Three Little Birds

Bob Marley & The Wailers – Is This Love

568

The days seem to count down slowly and quickly. Last night Olov and I looked at wedding magazines and talked about colors and have decided on Purple.. Which shade of purple is another story.

Why do there have to be so many?



Currently listening to: The Beach Boys – God Only Knows

The days go by... And today I am thinking of music....

What will we dance to on our first song, is there going to be a father daughter dance? is it necessary?

What music will we come in to the reception?

Bob marley? He is a favorite of ours.

hmmmmm...

I would like our song to be unique, nothing cliche'

Another day, another thought runs through my head. A chat with my Mom about dresses, I sent her to see a dress for me and she vetoed one already.. But the other two she liked, although I'm not settled on them because I want to be able to try dresses on to see if the style I am choosing will look good on me and I need to drop a few before I get to that stage.

Mom says I should have atleast 6 months before the wedding to choose my dress, just in case something should take to long.. I am only waiting on the search for my dress because like I said I need to drop a few pounds...

I also asked my Sister to be in my wedding party.. and of course Sequoia my adorable little niece as our flower girl. YAY

and now some gowns

575 days


It's been 21 days since Olov purposed to me on the hill in the snow in a mini snow storm. It's been 21 days but I'm still getting way ahead of myself.

I've heard though that in Sweden booking your church, your reception area, your minister on the day you want can be tough so booking a year ahead is the best thing to do..


I'm pretty sure I've picked out my dress, I think I know what colours we want to us.(but it keeps changing so)

We're almost there with the budget.. Almost!

We've decided on a church wedding and having the reception in a place where we can be both inside and outside. Unless we can rent some tents and have the whole darn thing outside. It could be an option.

It's only been 21 days but these things are starting to go through my head.
