You and Me: A Little Alone Time

July 25th, 2011 @ 10:19 am by Mrs. Jaguar

There was one last thing I needed the girls to help me with before they left me to my thoughts on wedding day’s eve. It was the most precious of my parcels: the dress!

With a little hoisting and a handy curtain hook, we got it hung up and flattened out.

You’ll have to excuse the blurry iPhone pictures - action shots.

With the dress up, my girls bid me goodnight… and it was just me. I got in my jammies, took a few snapshots of the hotel room, tried to get the majority of wrinkles out of my veil, and stared at my wedding gown for a while longer. Being on my own was nice. It was still. It was peaceful. It let me appreciate the quiet before the storm.

With nothing else to do but play a little Solitaire on my iPhone (a bit of a bedtime ritual for me) I called it a night, and eventually fell asleep…

I’m contemplating staying at a hotel the night before the wedding versus staying at home because I would like a night of peace before the wedding craziness.

I think it’s such a good idea to have some time to enjoy the quiet before the storm.

Having some ‘me’ time is incredibly precious before the ensuing madness! Your dress is a work of art. :)

Your dress is so beautiful. Now all I want to do is go home and find my PJs. ;)

Well I have to say that I think this is such a beautiful idea. Ive been planning to have a “girls night” and all us girls (I only have one MOH and two BMs) stay in the hotel room watching chick flicks or something, but I think instead of us staying with each other, we just hang out for a little while and have dinner or something and then do this. I would love to have some time to myself to let it actually sink in that I will be getting married the following day. :D Perfect idea. Thank you.
