Introductions

Hello, my name is Sarah...and I've been a bad blogger. For those of you who follow me on twitter, you know that I a) have bronchitis b) just started a new job and c) am in the process of purchasing a house. Needless to say, things have been a little crazy over at Chez SE these last couple weeks. I try and keep up with everybody's blogs and tweets during the day, but I'm not able to post on my own.

So the posts will continue to be less frequent than before (ie 4 posts a day), but I'll try to post more now that I'm starting to get over the bronchitis. This is how my past three weeks have gone: 5:30 get home from work; 7:00 eat dinner; 9:00 go to bed; 6:00 am get up and do it all over again.

Mr. SE and I have been dealing with some complications on the wedding front, along with an ever decreasing budget. I'll be sure to fill you in on the details once things calm down. Please stay around- I promise I'll be back for some extremely fabulous posts next week. (ps- I lost a follower this week! Sad day!). In the meantime, here's some dresses I'm interested in. But wait- Miss SE, why are you posting dresses from DB? I thought you were going to hit up a fab salon where they served champagne and gushed over how beautiful you are. Yes, my friends, I was. That was before Mr. SE and I had a heart to heart about the budget and what is really important: our love, and honoring the friends and family that mean everything to us.

This weekend we're attending a wedding for the Goddaughter of Mom and Dad SE in Virginia. Mama SE is doing a reading in the ceremony- I'll try and take a picture. Before the wedding, mom and I are going to try on my FIRST wedding dress. I wanted to hit up DB first just to get a feel for the style that I wanted. While browsing their paper and online catalogue, I found some surprisingly lovely styles that I'm really looking forward to trying on. Here's some styles I like...

you know how i feel about this since we just talked about it yesterday, but i love the idea of going to DB first. its definitely smart to try on things to see what you like without the worry of falling in love with something totally out of your budget. cant wait to hear how it goes! love your picks too:)

Sarah! I hope you feel better soon. Good to hear the bronchitis is going away. Eh. No fun. I enjoy your blog! So hurry up and get better so you can post more regularly. ;) And I think the dresses you posted are lovely. Looking forward to hearing about your first trip to try them on!

Totally hit up a sample sale at a fab bridal salon... wait until Dec/Jan if you can. I got my dress for 65% off, it was awesome because I got a designer dress but still stayed in my budget or try,
oncewed.com or preownedweddingdress.com- awesome designer for half the price.

Like you said and I said from the beginning, the day is about the two of your celebrating your love with your friends and family!
