USPS loves me--a post about wedding shopping.
This is yet another wedding post more for my own records than anything. So feel free to disregard if you find this sort of thing boring.
A zillion wedding related things came in the mail today. My sixpence coin is here, as promised, in a collectible thingy for my wedding album. Our Official Mad Lib pens arrived with our names and date and stuff on them. They turned out really nice and cute and have no typos. Navy blue pens with silver writing on them...I just kind of wish I hadn't gone with Comic Book Sans. I grow weary of that font. Anyway, I got 100 of them for about $60 shipped, which I thought was pretty good. They'll look really cool with the little Mad Lib books we'll be making for favors.
My big gifts for the caterer arrived. She is getting a set of five candle holders that look like chinese takeout boxes. They are so damn cute! The box they came in was enormous.
Our unity candle is also here, it's a pagan one which I got from Magickal Omaha, which is my new favorite place to get witchy things.
Probably most fun of all is the big box of gifts for the fellas, ushers and stuff. I dont' want to give away the surprise but They Are SPEED BEETLE Yo-Yo's which frankly is one of my all time favorite Duncan model Yo-Yo's. H loves them too, so we thought that would be a good gift. Plus how fun is it to get a big box of Yo-Yo's in the mail?
Shopping has been tons of fun so far. I'm almost finished buying all the fun stuff though. Now all I have to do is find a new cake baker (I decided my old one was too expensive--$400 is just too much) and get with the caterers on the menu. Plus we didn't get to have our engagement pics taken because of the crappy weather and etc. Who knows when we'll be able to reschedule that, soon though. My plan to throw my happiness in people's faces must continue unabated. ;-]
My friend from Group isn't here to pick me up. I guess I'm not going.
Too bad too, because I also needed to go to the pharmacy.

The wedding party gifts you chose are the coolest!

Yeah, I'm thinking Magical Omaha will see a lot more of my money before too long. Such a great selection. I love the tiny spell candles 5 for a dollar. Woot!
