[ Life ] Busy, but loving it!

Approaching June 2012. The month I've been counting down to.

There is so much coming up.

Work is approaching end of financial year (so it's going to be crazy busy, which is a good thing!) - The 'Born This Way' Ball is happening on June 13th (cannot wait to see Lady Gaga again!) - My 30th Birthday Party 'Back to the 90s' is happening on June 23rd - and then last but not least, on June 30th I will attend OzComicCon in Melbourne, and finally get to meet 'Walter Skinner' himself, Mr Mitch Pileggi.

'American Flag' Costume is what I'm wearing to The BTW Ball!

My gorgeous dress for the MP Dinner (OzComCon)

Throughout July, I will be concentrating on work with PAYG summaries and rate changes coming out of my butt. But at least it all gets done, and then the year can progress (with Wedding Planning!!!). I'm hoping to hear back from the Whistler council hopefully by the end of the week. Then after 6 long months I will finally have set the date for our special day. I envision everything in my head, but since I'm not physically on the ground in Whistler until the beginning of January 2014, I'm going to have to employ a wedding planning service I think. People who know me, will know that this is going to be very hard for me to hand the reigns over to someone else... but it's what has to be done.

Also still waiting patiently to see if my dream dress  is going to be a reality. : )

[ Wedding ] Productive Week!

I know Craig doesn't read my blog, so I'm going to post that this is GORGEOUS. A coat to cover a dress during winter. This is my mission. Gonna need something to cover up when I'm moving from place to place for photos. DEVINE. Love it.

I've also made the decision that I want to have some photos taken in Vancouver. Stanley Park, Prospect Point, Pendrell Street, Overlooking downtown from Granville Island and somewhere along the seawall. Since the daylight doesn't last very long in Canada during Winter, we may have to dress twice to get the shots that we want.

I've put in the request with the Whistler Municipal Council to book the park!

I'm in contact with Vogue's Vintage King. ; )



Ladies and gentlemen, it's all systems go! Hooray! What a productive week!

[ Wedding ] Dreams Do Come True

I never thought I'd be lucky enough to say that I'm going to be talking to William of WilliamVintage about the possibility of getting a gown for my Wedding in 2014.

You know when you have a dream, you should put it out there to the universe. You never know what will unfold to make it come true.

I tweeted that my dream dress for my wedding would come from WilliamVintage, making sure that I included his Twitter handle... But, it's hard to have Champagne tastes when you have a cheap sparking wine budget.

Imagine my surprise when William tweeted back, saying he had a dress for under £400.

That is still quite expensive considering I'm only going to be wearing it for pictures. BUT, if I can get my hands on a gorgeous vintage gown - I'd be an idiot to turn down the opportunity. 

Here's hoping it will fit me.
