On My Way Home

I'm in a new role at work (Day Therapy - which is awesome) at my hours have changed so I get to go home at 2pm. When I finish at 4:30pm Rhys would pick me up and we drive home together. But leaving at 2pm I drive home on my own. And I take a different route. I go via the chapel we'll say I do in (its only 5 minutes out of my way). Today I just pulled over for a minute and sat and tried to picture our wedding day. I still can't believe that it's real.

I also drive over the Story Bridge and admire our reception venue.

We're going to a chapel

...get this song out of my head!



Ri and I have decided to BOOK the chapel, so as of today. It's booked; one chapel.
It's a simple chapel.
Plush seats.
Aircon!
and I get to walk down an aisle.
And from what I could see there is only one reference to god and maybe 2 crosses.
I'm fairly sure I saw the symbol for scientology on one of the stain glass windows.
There are a few stain glass windows on each side of the chapel, from different faiths and cultures.

This week in wedding land

The Dress

I found the dress on the left in Melbourne, Sophia Tolli - 'Annette.'

I went to the only place that stocks that brand in Brisbane and they are one season behind.

But I tried on a dress by the same designer and think I may like it better, but Mum HATES it (I guess that only adds to the appeal) and I'm not sure if it suits me (as mums opinion was decidedly biased).

This game is not as fun as I thought it would be.

I thought I would walk in and there it would be.

I guess the last time I looked for a gown I was 40kgs and a size 8. Damn I wish I was her (by that I mean extremely unhealthy skinny weight me of the past).

You know she only ever ate like Maccas and take away (yes I still mean me) and she couldn't really walk so its not like she exercised either. Dang medications!

Enough on weight.

Lets talk height. I had a bone scan yesterday and the lovely lady took my height. Went over to the computer, did a double take. Came back and measured me again. Looked at the computer. Muttered it's impossible.

I've grown 10cm since I was 15 years old. I was 149cm, I thought that I was 154cm now, turns out I'm 159cm! How awesome is that? Thats 5 foot 2 1/2 inches. Go height!

The second photo, currently dress love of my life is 'Irene' by Sophia Tolli.

The florist

Found one! If the quote doesn't make me scream too loud in horror then that is BOOKED!

The Chapel

The Chapel? anyone who knows me from a bar of soap would say.

Yes we're getting married in a chapel that rents the grounds out for civil ceremonies.

Broadway Chapel.

So thats about every thing done then?

Tori says, after her heart starts again:

Baby all we have booked is two venues and a photographer. What about everything else?
