February 09 Brides

[Lilpaisley]

I have been going back and forth on the hair style myself. I generally wear my hair down, and I know FI likes long hair...but I've been to Jamaica before and know that my naturally wavy hair gets a little crazy in that weather. I think I've finally settled on a style like this. I love the viel under the bun and I really want to wear a flower.

Very nice hair inspiration pics girls! I'm going all up because of the heat. I don't want hair sticking to my back...yuck! My hairdresser said to skip the hair trial. She said it only puts expectations on my wedding day hair and no two stylists will be able to do it the same. So, i'm just going to go for it on my wedding day! Scary!

I love this style! I agree- I'm going to have my hair up. My hair always ends up in a ponytail/bun as it is...

Love the hair style and having the veil below the bun.

So what made everyone choose February for their wedding month?

 

We really wanted to go somewhere warm during the freezing cold winter months we have here in MN. Also, one of our super good friend's were expecting their first baby last winter. We wanted to make sure to steer clear of her due date because we knew they wouldn't want to be gone over her 1st birthday. We chose a date 3 weeks after her due date and low and behold she was 3 weeks overdue! She ended up having the baby on 1/30 and we leave 1/31 for the cruise! Pheeewww!

We chose February because it is such a great time to go weather wise- Plus I have mid-winter break that week! Works out perfectly!!

We chose Feb bc we got engaged in Feb and wanted the wedding asap but thought we should give our guests 1 year to plan for the trip. It worked out well my brother is having a baby in Nov and we are now getting married on FI grandparents anniversary. I love that we are getting married in Feb but I am ready now!!!!

I picked Feb for 2 reasons. First, like others have said I wanted a wedding somewhere warm when the weather here in Seattle was cold. It will be so nice to go from gloomy gray Seattle to warm and sunny Jamaica.

 

Second, I own a small boutique and there is no way I can take a week+ off between Sept and Dec. I thought about Jan, but ended up picking Feb so I had all of Jan to do just wedding stuff; because I won't have much time between Thanksgiving and Xmas. I just hope this year's economy doesn't hurt Xmas season too much, because I live allot of the year off those sales.

It is too funny every month when I see my ticker change I get super duper excited all over again, but then I look at my list and say I need get my but into gear to get everything done
