Nothing makes you feel quite like a bride-to-be than being mushed together in an auditorium with a thousand other brides-to-be.
Mood:

Full of ideas!
Yesterday I went to my first bridal expo, and I learned three things. Bridal shows are:
- full of fun!
- full of crazy!
- full of spam (or more specifically, they give you a giant bag which they then proceed to fill with spam at every booth you pass.)
The crazy and spam were both
good crazy and
good spam though. It was such a fun morning of wandering around all of the vendor booths and gushing over all of the pretty set ups and decorations and dresses~ :3 I was all starry eyed with sparkles and splendor and spent a lot of time getting lost among the maze of tables and trying to figure out where I was in the giant sea of women (and very few men who I believe most of who were drunk.) Much love to wonderful family and friends who came with me and readily accepted jobs of photo taking and spam bag carrying, and even started the day with bringing tasty Timbits~ LOOOOOOOVE!
While we sadly received no exciting phone call yesterday saying we had won the grand $15,000 wedding and Paris honeymoon prize package from the bridal show, I'm still holding out hope that we'll win something, however small, from one of the other bajillion contests we entered while we were there. Free dress? Discount photography? I will even be giggly with delight if I win half price seat covers or something. C'mon little bridal fair fairies, sprinkle some of your magic wedding contest pixie dust!
On a sour note, the sizing band on my temporary engagement ring got all bent out of shape and is pretty much useless now. I almost lost the ring more than once on Saturday so instead of Ben Moss getting very angry with me when I loose their expensive jewelery, I put it back safely in its cute little ring box. Until my actual ring comes in (
hopefully next week) my left hand is feeling a little bare.
Baaaah I have lots to update with on my wedding blog! XD Bridal show number two is up in two weeks!
