104.

happy mother's day! had fam dinner tonight to celebrate our wonderful umma. she's the bestest mom in the whole wide world. no, seriously. she's amazing. we decided to check out a new restaurant in the south bay. the owners of simmzy's and tin roof bistro opened a new restaurant in manhattan, called the mb post. food was yum, and the vibe is fab.

my dress finally came in a few weeks ago, and i went to try it on yesterday. and guess what? i'm too fat. hahaha. heard a couple of rips trying to squeeze my body into the dress. after a few shiftings, and sucking in my belly, i managed to get it zipped up. and when i looked at myself in the mirror, i was happy with what i saw. my dress doesn't have a long train, but just enough for the cutest little french bustle. there are buttons that go down my back, which adds a little something to the dress. i'll probably wear it with a sash for the reception. i asked the dress shop to create a sweetheart neckline, which i think will look nice.

after months and months of trying to figure out, 1. what kind of vibe/style i wanted my wedding to take on, 2. what my colors are going to be, 3. how i was going to diy my wedding, 4. and the list goes on and on, we i have decided to hire someone to do all of that for us. that someone is....IN THE NOW WEDDINGS + EVENTS. felt so good to get ITN on our fab wedding team. a week after signing them, ITN got my colors nailed down, and we will be meeing for a venue walk through this coming saturday. so relieved and happy.

recently, i have been realizing how wonderful d is. he is thoughtful. he is unbelievably caring and willing to do anything to make me happy. doesn't mean i get away with everything, but i feel so loved with d. he is always up to try new things, whether it be trying out a new restaurant, or experiencing something new together, he is always willing. always so supportive and loving.

i am so blessed....ridiculously blessed.
