After Miss Lily’s post on songs, I’ve received numerous requests for the “shake yo booty” song list put together by Mr. Peach’s groomsmen. Miss Lily suggested I post the list, so here you go along with some pictures to show that our guests really did get down, shook their boot ies, and had the time of their life dancing at our reception.
Mr. Peach and I gettin it down in our hanboks (traditional Korean outfits)- yeah, we didn’t let our outfits get in the way of us having a good time.

While I’m waiting for pictures, thought I’d give you some trivia about my wedding! (sometime later, I’ll do some about myself in general)
1. I never got a hair trial
2. I never got a makeup trial
3. I forgot (sort of- got really busy and did not have time) to get a manicure/pedicure, not even an at-home kit. Felt okay about this, afterall who will look so closely at my fingers?? Yeahh, except my photog was like “I’d like to take pics of you and your husband’s hands with the wedding rings on.” DOH! I knew there was a reason why I wanted to make sure my nails were painted, even if it’s just clear. Yeah, I didn’t even do that. Oh wells.
4. During rehearsal, I got red flower pollen on my white dress. Better the day before than the day of, right?
5. The girls were running late so my BMs got dressed at the hair salon and I got dressed in less than 2 minutes in the church bathroom. (so much for the “getting ready” pictures. Haha)

In a few hours Mr. Peach and I will be on a plane headed to Atlanta for our wedding. Many people have been asking me how I feel. My response: I dunno. I feel like it’s just been so crazy recently I haven’t had much time to think or let my feelings sink in. I think I’m excited and happy. At the same time I’m scared (not of marriage but of the actual wedding day- having to be in the center of attention) and also a bit sad. My mom just sent me this poem via email. She prefaced it by saying that this expresses exactly how she is feeling these days…
At My Daughter’s Side
by Linda Jo
Tomorrow was a lifetime away, now suddenly it’s here.
How did it happen so quickly? This wedding drawing near.
How can I act so happy? How can I act so gay?
When in such a very short time, I’ll give my daughter away.
I wish I could grasp a moment, and make the clock stand still
So I could let my heart catch up, but I know it never will.
All the worries of being a parent, all the battles won,
No one ever warned me about the day the job is done.
Yet, there is another side, where my heart is not as sad.

Against the advice of some weddingbee readers, I couldn’t resist a FREE facial and took the risk on Tuesday at Mario Badescu. Since it’s my first time ever getting a professional facial or even being at a spa, I have nothing to compare to… but overall I enjoyed my experience!
As soon as I met my aesthecian, Madonna, I immediately told her of my situation: how I’m a newbie at getting a facial, how my wedding is just a week and half away, how I’m allergic to mangos, etc. Her facial expression read, “Whoa, calm down lady!” Haha. Anyways so she tells me to put on the robe and make myself feel comfortable and she disappears.This is when I begin to panic.
Ummmm… am I supposed to take off my shirt/bra and put on the robe? Or just put the robe over all my clothes? After some internal debating, I decided to keep my clothes on since I’m just getting a facial, and the only other time I wear a robe like that is when I’m getting a haircut and I def keep my clothes on for that. Anyways, I still don’t know if that was the “right” thing to do, especially when she started to massage my upper breast area and back of shoulder a little bit- she pushed my top-thank goodness I was wearing a wide neck sweater- and bra straps down to the side to do this, and I was thinking it would have been much easier if I had nothing on underneath.

Man, who knew getting married would require so many different things to think about! And who knew I would be publicly blogging about such a topic?? Ahahaha. *embawassed*

As I mentioned before, we are having a cupake tree as our wedding cake. Upon talking to our reception director, it seems that we have to be careful because some people mistaken them as dessert and take them before the “cake cutting.” She suggested I make a sign and put it in a nice frame next to the cupcake tree to inform guests to wait.
I was thinking, maybe I can write up a cute 2 line poem. Oh, I dunno… something like…
You might be tempted to take…
but please wait ’till we cut the cake!
What do you think? too corny? haha. Anyone feeling creative and wanna suggest something else?
