Congratulations Cassie!

how long have you guys known each other/been involved for, cass?

[Henrietta]

I won't be having a live band/string quartet. I'll just play the music over a system.

I've known him since March. We've been together since the first of May.

[Lando]

Wow... well good luck with that then. I don't know fully how mormons do things, but one thing's for sure, you can't know everything about a person in that short of a time, so I hope you're not getting in over your head! Too many people get stuck in bad marriages, so I wish all the best for you Cass.

Also, if this is your first serious relationship, be aware that feelings change over time. The initial euphoria of love and excitement changes over time, I'm in no way saying you'll fall out of love with the person, but it's a different experience emotionally as love progresses or develops, so don't be surprised if you don't feel the same excitement about the relationship as time goes on. You'll probably just be more in love! but it'll be different than the whole new discovery stage of the relationship!

I almost have my dress picked out.

[Dr. Hobo]

so does that mean you have like.. half a dress picked out? 75%? 80%?! what?!?!

[Henrietta]

No, it means I've narrowed it down to three that I really want!

[Dr. Hobo]

so thats like.. 33%!

for a temple ceremony your dress has to meet the requirements doesnt it? Are there lots of modest dresses to choose from? Will you have a different one for the reception??

[Henrietta]

Yes for the temple ceremony it has to be all white and be modest. There are some stores here that carry dresses that meet those requirements, but most don't. Most of the ones I've tried on don't so I'll have to have them sent somewhere to be built up. After I go to the temple for the first time I make certain covenants so I won't be able to wear a dress that doesn't meet those requirements even outside the temple. However, I will be wearing a different dress in than out, just because I want some off white beading and that's not allowed in the temple

[crustine]

will you wear you dress to the reception or will that be a more casual event. I really like the idea of having the reception the next day. It makes for a much more relaxed affair.
