ReplyDeletethe title of your post makes you sound real, real over the fun wedding planning! luckily we realized the zipper fiasco before the actual wedding day!
ReplyDeleteNo way--stuck in the dress! I can just picture this scenario. Ugh! Exciting times for your whole family. :)
ReplyDeleteThere is so much to do isn't there? Michelle had to take her dress back to the seamstress the morning of the wedding. It all works out eventually. Enjoy the countdown.
