The Anti-Bride

 The Anti-bride, That's what I thought I was. I never thought about my wedding. I never thought about my wedding dress. In fact I never thought I'd be married. Who in their right mind would want to be? But here I stand ashamed and defeated, in love and engaged to be married. Gross, I know. But the facts are the facts. When it came time to put up or shut up, I was speechless. It's easy to have a strong opinion about something until it's you that is being asked to sacrifice your string quartet. Feel free to close this page now. Two years ago I would have. But one day when your knee-deep in to-dos and it's your string-quartet, you'll think of me and you'll be back.

Our "engagement" photo. Whatever that means. It's cheesy, he's only half smiling and frankly, I was cold as hell. But everyone kept asking for an "engagement" photo (insert nagging voice) (think Seinfield, "You gotta to see the baby"). So, we obliged.
