We got a groom who's chasing every skirt on the continent, a bride that's only going along because she thinks that's what good little princesses do, a room full of guests who only care about the free food, and an ex-mental patient with an uzi in his hand

my aunt vickie is throwing an engagement party for my mom and bob. it has a secret theme. i feel fairly confident in telling you this theme, as my family does not read this blog. because i haven’t told them about it. except for josh. anyway, the theme is to come dressed as a member of the wedding party. bride, groom, best man, children of the bride... whatever. you are too be creative in your costuming. now, i figure, i can come as a child of the bride quite easily. i could pull that off better than anyone. except maybe my older brother. however, i bet its specific to a child of the bride attending the wedding. forget that. i’m not going to get all dressed up to look like me all dressed up. so here is what i think i should wear.... i’m going to be a bride. i want to find a big tulle skirt, even a ballet skirt would do, as long as it’s white. then i am going to wear my doc martin’s [black] and maybe my white and red striped witchy poo socks. then, i will wear a white baby doll shirt i have that says, in small black courier print “my cat hates you.” and then the ubiquitous veil. sound pretty? i think so.

Dude! You've just described, to a Tee, what I plan to wear when Victor and I get married! Well, ok, maybe not to a Tee, but I love Tulle, and I think that Doc's need to be in the picture, although I do own a pair of white ones - but maybe I'll pair them with my black and white stripey pirate tights?

Go for it, it sounds perfect to me!

ummm... your mom and bob are getting married? whoa! or maybe i already knew and just forgot. i'd feel really bad if that were the case, though, so i'll go with the "jodi didn't tell me" story.

the bride outfit sounds AWESOME. i think i have those socks... i love them!
