I haven’t really talked much about the general feel of our wedding. I think I’ll do that, mmkay? But instead of blabbering in sentence form, which I love to do, I’m gonna make a LIST! That’s right. It’s going to be repetitive and awesome. And not comprehensive, because I tend not to roll that way. In no particular order. So, yeah. You’ve been warned.

1. It’s going to be awesome. Like, fall-over-and-pee-your-pants awesome.
2. There will be no bridal army. I.e. I won’t have a bridal party dressed in identical dresses.
3. There will be crayons.
4. It will be representative of our relationship and who we are, both as people and as a couple.
5. There will be NO SEATING CHART. (For someone so uptight, I sure am trying to be relaxed with this whole thang!)
6. We are having a club-circuit DJ. Awesome? Uh, yeah.
7. We’re having the reception in a Louisiana-style plantation. That I grew up in. That is awesome.
8. We don’t really have super-set wedding colors. The colors are, well, just, COLOR. We’ll go over that later, y’alls.
9. I won’t go into specifics of my outfit, but I promise it will be ballin’ and ridonk.
10. We want to somehow pay homage to our super awesome Kitten of Rock. (Pictured above)
11. We’re having a non-boring meal filled with our favorites and stuff from our backgrounds- German, Cajun/Creole, teeny burgers, Italian, Asian-fusion.
12. I wish we could do a second-line from the church to the house. Maybe I’ll just settle with some Mardi Gras masks.
13. We’re having a smilebooth. Oh, that will be ridiculous. Oh, and a bananas photog.
14. Robots will make an appearance. Somewhere.
15. I will break down like a baby during the ceremony. In happiness, but I can predict it. There will be tears, and I’m not a public-cryer.
16. We want to be able to greet and spend some time with each and every guest.
17. Can you say, beer, wine, and hunch punch? Yeah. You can. [Disclaimer: I have not confirmed the hunch punch option with my family or Mr. S yet. Surprise!]
18. Mr. S has said he will smash cake in my face. I’m dealing with it, and will chase Mr. S down and pin him if he does do it. Revenge is a… you know.
19. After said cake smashing, I fully intend to STUFF MY FACE with cake.
20. I have requested that Mr. S take the garter off with his teeth.
21. 1AM after-party at the hotel? Yes, please.
22. Eclectic, funky, fun, effortless [looking], colorful, different, non-traditional, traditional, LOUD, sweet, loving, special, amazing, wonderful, madd gangsta’…
23. Most importantly, we want our wedding to be a CELEBRATION of US. A big, fun, party with all of our best pals and important people in our lives. Lots of dancing, revelry, and embarrassing levels of fun and LOVE.

How would YOU describe the feeling of your wedding? Is it sweet and romantic, or totally over-the-top and intense?
