super wedding hair, activate!

diaryland entry 9:36 a.m. - 2005-09-27

I'm getting closer and closer to my wedding. It's about a week and a half away. So I'm now taking care of all the stupid last minute crap. I'm not good at details.

Last night I went to a fancy-pants salon in Superior to do a practice run on my hair for the wedding. So I'm there, almost straight from work in my Poor Old Lu t-shirt and jeans. She did my hair with more hairspray than I've used in the last 15 years and a pile of hairpins that would guarantee that my head would never get through airport security.

After it was all done, I went home to have dinner and watch tv and work on the wedding flowers. The whole time, with a fancified head and a tiara. Actually, not the whole time. Just long enough to unnerve my parents.

Then I took the pins out and that was even more fun. Once they were all out, my hair was sticking out in all directions like an anime character. I felt like my mouth shouldn't be matching up with my words.

Meanwhile, I was finishing up the wedding flowers. It was a pain, but I'm glad I'm using fake flowers. Real flowers have to be done at the last minute, and I'm not into that. Especially after spending several hours de-thorning roses for my brother's wedding last year.

Got to get back to work. Only 4 and a half more days of soul-crushing claims processing.

Hi! Congrats. I am planning my wedding right now and you're right, it is a lot of crappy planning. I was wondering, I want to use fake flowers in my hair, do you have any suggestions? Where to buy them or tips? Thanks so much, Jen

I bought my fake flowers online from a place called Bee Floral, but I don't know if they're there anymore. But they were good. I got enough flowers and ivy for some simple decorations for only about $200.
