Lalala lala!

With the wedding is so close, I've actually run out of things to do. It's weird, preparing for the wedding for six months and now it's here! The design elements are printed, vendors are confirmed, clothing is purchased and altered (not yet packed). Anyway...

One of the most fun parts of the wedding has been getting back all the RSVP's for the Prairie Wedding with your song requests. There will be quite an eclectic mix this weekend, ranging from Frank Sinatra to Kanye West. Mom keeps insisting on songs like the YMCA, Cha Cha Slide and Boot Scootin' Boogie. Okay, many other guests also requested those, oh so amusing, dance arrangements. I have a feeling we will be Cha Cha Boogieing the night away on Saturday. Maybe not Jerrod, he doesn't dance, but we'll try to get him out there for some Y-M-C-A action.

Websites seem to all have their own idea of what makes the PERFECT wedding song. Here is a funny list of songs just for the Bouquet Toss and Garter Removal/Toss. My favorite suggestion would have to be "I'm Too Sexy" for the Garter Removal or perhaps "Macho Man" for the Garter Toss. There's also The Top 20 Wedding Oldies which feature one I've liked since I was little, "Chapel of Love." I think my Mom used to sing it, as she does random songs, over and over. I get it stuck in my head some days, just wake up with it playing over and over in my mind, even before I was wedding planning.

Really looking forward to seeing everyone who is making the journey out to Kansas this weekend! And keep sending those RSVP's for Ohio, Mom hasn't yet sent final numbers and the group keeps growing, it will be wonderful to catch up with so many people I haven't seen for a long time. YAY!!

* I have no idea who either of the couples are whose photos I featured in this post. Jerrod and I will not be dancing like the first couple, nor will I have a veil like the second bride.
