My Friend Said I Have Problems.

August 15th, 2007 @ 11:31 am by Mrs. Gummi Bear

He knows I’m crazy, but he really didn’t expect me to use the full extent of that lack of reasonable thought towards the wedding… but when I asked him his opinion on box tops, he finally knew that I had lost it.

When Mr. GB and I had first discussed invitations, we didn’t think too much about what was going to go on around it, or…

Lisa Must Be A Saint.

August 14th, 2007 @ 10:58 am by Mrs. Gummi Bear

Because the only person I know who can put up with my zooming in and nitpicking everything until it’s dead and bleeding is Mr. GB… and yet she was there, responsive and adjusting to every insane little detail that we wanted to change, or just see changed, and then change back, and then decide to weep over for a day, and then wake up and…

Our Cheap Table Finds A Purpose!

August 9th, 2007 @ 2:07 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

Yesterday, we got a good 5-6 packages. I love packages, it’s like Christmas, only Santa is usually wearing a brown shirt and shorts. Sometimes he comes wearing a blue suit, and is surlier these days thanks to our normal mail carrier being MIA. How I miss her…Of the several 30lbs boxes, of which weak Mr. GB could barely carry, we received one from Paper Monkey…

About Mrs. Gummi Bear

I hadn’t planned on buying any lingerie for the night of… or after… honestly, I plan on passing out and not waking up for several days. But Agent Provacateur is having a sale, so for the sake of my own personal lust and the spending monster awakening in me, maybe Mr. GB will actually get treated. Or more likely he’ll just catch me standing in…

Guilt Complex

August 3rd, 2007 @ 5:29 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

All this misery about bad bakers and the demon of alterations left me with a sour taste in my mouth about those kinds of vendors who prey on brides. I was feeling angry and disgusted with the bridal industry and felt a stomping tantrum coming on when I got a call yesterday from Jin Wang. She called to give me an update on my Thomas…

I swear I won’t have another one of these. I had my side by side comparison of the two gowns I’ve been going back and forth on.

First, the Monique Lhuillier Scarlet. I’ll say that the alterations manager was just as horrible and awful in person as on the phone and yelled at me several times, demanding I tell her if “I have a problem” with…

I’m Just Detail Oriented! (Anal)

July 30th, 2007 @ 10:30 am by Mrs. Gummi Bear

Mr. GB and I aren’t spending a lot of time thinking about the huge aspects of the wedding. We’re not fussing over flowers (I trust my floral designer 120%) and not making a big deal over linens or plates. It’s all about the details for us. While I was completely happy with the idea of standard white this and standard that, I didn’t want anything…

Mum Pomanders

July 27th, 2007 @ 2:39 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

I found this really easy pomander instruction on the d*s guestblog a while back, conveniently when I was preparing for my housewarming/engagement party. I bought floral foam, mums, and pearl headed pins and set to work.

It isn’t perfect, but it was easy and quick - so if you wanted to make some, I definitely recommend the above instructions! I’m sure with a bit of practice,…

Dress Anxiety + Awesome Discovery

July 26th, 2007 @ 6:45 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

Thanks so much for the support about my current dress, it has been causing more ridiculous amount of stress since I tried it on last week. I was in tears this morning thinking about all the things I would have to alter in order to even slightly ease the stress about it. Unfortunately, the bridal salon REFUSED to book me an appointment before August when…

Unexpected Additions

July 25th, 2007 @ 4:55 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

I don’t hate babies. I don’t hate children. But I am incredibly uncomfortable and nervous around them, I don’t really know what to do with them. Mr. Gummibear loves watching me when I’m forced to interact with children. My best friend from elementary school placed her 5 month old little girl on my lap… I just stared at her silently. Mr. GB says to interact,…

About Mrs. Gummi Bear

I haven’t talked much about my dress, I’m guessing because I never was 100% sure I got the right one. It’s coming back to haunt me, 5 months later.Does anyone else feel like being pressured to find a dress months before your wedding date puts it on the urgent to-do list? I wish I had spent a whole lot more time prior to my engagement…

Photos Eat My Soul

July 19th, 2007 @ 3:41 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

You could call me unphotogenic, you could call me shy, or you could just say that I really freaking hate having my photo taken. I’ve hated cameras for most of my life, I attribute that to the ridiculously long awkward phase I had growing up. Sometime between 4th and 5th grade, I got ugly, and it didn’t stop until after high school graduation. It was…

Tubes of Goodness

My boss in Japan is more excited about the wedding than anyone else, it’s so cute.

Now, I have two packages coming - the tracking says it left Osaka yesterday evening. I am the kind of person who sits…

Outsourcing My DIY

July 18th, 2007 @ 4:14 pm by Mrs. Gummi Bear

I already admitted it. I’m entirely unable to do anything crafty unless it is at a 3rd grade level and doesn’t involve any objects I could accidently poke my eye out with.

So when we decided not to have chairs with seats for the ceremony and go for long, low benches, I needed to decide whether or not I was up to the task of sewing…

Mr. Gummibear and I really needed to get some shopping done. We’re feeling a bit behind because until Ikea, we hadn’t bought a single thing for the wedding. Just discussed it. So we made a list of places we had to hit up this week.Our best and most productive shopping moment was at Daiso. It’s a Japanese chain 100 yen store that opened in Daly City…
