put on your red shoes and dance...

let me preface all of this by saying, i LOVE my bridal party. best man of honour and bridesmaids a girl could ask for. thank you. you are amazing.

this week, i opened my mailbox to find the fanciest of invites, to my own bacherlorette party!

i'm not normally into wedding type functions (engagement parties, showers, etc). but a night out with my ladies - YES PLEASE.

given that i have chosen a man of honour to stand with me, carsten will only be joining us in spirit. i'm warning you now though carsten... you may be the next target of a drunk dial from me telling me how great you are... carol and dre - expect to be smothered in bridal love.

knowing very few details of the night that lies ahead, i only had my outfit to think of. fancy duds with hints of red (our dancing color theme).

inspired by of one of the greatest songs ever, i will happily put on my red shoes and dance the night away with all of the lovely ladies in my life!! i can't wait for tonight!

it's the final countdown!

though our wedding date is technically still 32 days away, we officially take off for negril in exactly one month from today. between temperatures dropping, losing more hours of daylight and frantically searching for missing mittens - i know, i can't wait to be en route to sunny jamaica!

but, this also means we have exactly 30 days to finish our preparations... i know we must be getting close, as i had my first "wedding catastrophe" dream last night. i woke up laughing because my major disaster was that my dress had been died emerald green. who knew my subconscious was obsessed with wearing white? is this really my biggest concern? nerves and green dress nightmares aside, we do still have a fair bit to finalize and pack over the next month. but i hope to enjoy every minute of it!
