Joy is taking swing classes an I’m outside her class waiting for it to finish. It’s seems to have been quite the couple of days for the wedding planning. We’ve got a date and location now and have made early progress on music, photos, food and clothing. Additionally, I’m trying to get my brother’s bachelor party set up. A little rough being a continent away, but the free long distance calling is moving things along. It’s going to be a wild night of Blazers basketball!
But back to my wedding – it’s really shocking how expensive our attempt at a “cheap” wedding is ending up to be. At least paying Manhattan rent has be used to dropping absurd amounts of money on life.
Worse still is encountering the expectations people have for our wedding. Luckily, all of our parents (hi mom) have been incredibly hands off, but my less-than-traditional ideas have met some mild judgement. Shocking that the guy who rides his bike everywhere, practices the art of Neti and convinced his woman to house a worm bin in her apartment isn’t liking his foray into wedding planning. Eloping sounds better and better each day. It’s going to be a wonderful days with loved ones though and in spite of my gloom and doom, I am looking forward to it.
