Nightmare

So, I'm beginning to think that "Wedding at the Table" was a bad idea. I've had three wedding nightmares since we first got engaged.

1. The dress hunt
2. The hair-do
3. The hair-do AGAIN

All three of these nightmares were directly related to the fact that my "theknot.com" monthly checklist sent me my to-do's for the month and these things were not finished yet.

Never, and I mean NEVER, have I worried about our AMAZING photographer. Alas, my night begins and I am enjoying dreamland...Nathan and I get married...it was a beautiful day...everyone looked and acted lovely...we took pictures for about fifteen minutes at some random park behind the ceremony site which was NOT the church we're getting married in (clue #1 to stop said dream and remember that is just that, a dream)...we then head to the reception and the beautiful Tine our photographer says "Ciao!" (clue #2 that said dream is getting ridiculous...she's German NOT Italian) and leaves before we even dance or cut the cake or really do anything at all. Then my dream skipped ahead to us getting home (clue #3 you're getting married in Cincy...there's NO way you'd make it back to Ann Arbor that fast) and I start panicking that we didn't take enough pictures. And I wanted the beautiful pictures like the rest of the brides and grooms had on her blog. I wanted Sampson in the pictures gosh darn it! So I call Tine, sobbing, asking her if she'd meet us right away to take more pictures (because we're back in the same city at this point??? Again, wake up and smell the ridiculous dream Elizabeth!) and she told me that she couldn't make it. And I cried and cried and cried because I knew we'd never have the beautiful pictures from our wedding that I'd been dreaming of.

And that's when I woke up. Still sobbing. Worried that our pictures would be straight from Olan Mills and not the kind that I'd seen on her blog.

So I say again, maybe this whole "Wedding at the Table" series isn't a good idea. If I have a nightmare tonight that our menu is digusting then I'm cancelling any further wedding talk on here. Forever. :)
