2012.3.20 - Sunny
小時候,每每看到機場時,總是充滿了羨幕與渴望
羨慕別人可以離開, 渴望著外面的世界,滿腦子只想著要離開
但,最近經過機場時
總是感到莫名的感傷...

今天才突然意識到我只剩5個禮拜了, 卻還有好多事情還沒有做...
1. Order wedding favor
再過5個禮拜,我就要回去你身邊,,與你手牽手步入人生的下一個階段了
以前對溫哥華沒太多眷戀的我, 突然對於這次的離開, 有好多感觸, 有更多的感傷
也許我這次才真正的意識到自己是真的要離開這片土地了吧
從9歲住到23歲,14個年頭,滿滿的回憶
縱使過去的4年我沒在這,但我還是認為溫哥華比台灣更像我的家
因為我是在這兒長大的,記憶裡的美好時光也都是在溫哥華渡過的
在Bayview上ESL的我
在Trimble park打籃球,打網球,打棒球,坐雪橇的我
上一趟滑雪摔到尾椎的經驗實在是太可怕了!
不能躺不能坐不能跑不能跳,變成了半個廢人
那時的我感到很害怕,我還想結婚,還想生子耶~
一度想要放棄snowboard換回ski了...
直到昨天,我終於有勇氣再度上山啦!
前幾天下那麼多雪,雪況一定很棒
至少跌倒不會太痛吧!!!!!
沒有小猴子陪在身邊的我變的很勇敢
沒有因為boots不合腳而哀哀叫
Before Hun and I started to seriously, and formaly "chat" about marriage, I actually haven't given much thoughts about what my wedding gown should look like. The pressure of obtaining approval from both of our parents was so overwhelming that I simply couldn't spare any time or energy on the details. It wasn't until I felt my parents have tacitly accepted our plan that I started to browse online for wedding ideas, and one day I accidentally came across this wedding gown in a post on verywed:
I can't quite remember my very first thought about this dress, but it must have been something like "oh my god this is so pretty!". After I googled a bit I discovered that this is probably the most popular dress in the "White by Vera Wang" collection, a bridal line exclusively designed for David's bridal by Vera Wang.
I first heard about Vera Wang through the movie "Bride War". Kate Hudson wore a sweetheart neckline ball gown for her wedding, an absolutely gorgeous dress, a classic Vera Wang aesthetic!
But how the brand "Vera Wang" really made an impression on me was this hiliarious part of the movie when Kate Hudson bawled and cried because she finally realized all those chocolates and candies she has been snacking on during work made it impossible for her to zip up her dress. Her fiance tried to comfort her and told her that they can always get a tailor to alter the dress. Kate Hudson responded madly with a statement:
"You don't alter Vera! You alter yourself to fit Vera! Geez, what did boys learn in school"
每天在溫哥華無所事事等著回台灣的我
對於婚禮的許多事情都只能憑空想像, 無法實際去行動
漸漸的, 我陷入了恐慌
深怕自己什麼都做不好
我這位可怕的perfectionist with severe obsessive compulsive disorder的理念是
既然要做, 那就要做好
婚禮如果因為我沒有好好計畫而變成一團遭
我應該會有一整年的低潮期吧!!
這些壓力讓我開始羨幕著別人可以有婚顧搞定一切
只需要對單一的窗口開出自己要的項目
1st place: Light Pink x White Peony
It is and will always be my most desired bouquet, although I'm most likely not going to get this because Oct is just not the right season.
No greens should be showing, should be wrapped with white lace or something...
this is definitely No. 1 !!!!!!
dreamy!
Now that the wedding color has been decided, I can move on and search for wedding invitation design inspirations!
So far I have a few ideas in mind:
1. An invitation "card" - Nice and simple
2. A ribbon across the middle
3. A phrase at the top of the invitation that illustrates our love
4. Ivory colored paper, blush + charcoal colored writing
5. Both in Chinese and in English
6. Blush color envelop with charcoal sticker (or wax seal?).
Some of the things I want to avoid:
The first and most important thing to decide is definitely the WEDDING COLOR!! It is hard to proceed with the rest without it, ex. decoration, flower, utensils, wedding favours, invitation...etc. Everything should be based on the wedding color combo. Here's something to keep in mind, I gave up my previous desired color palette after I read this from ehow.com:
No. 1 Principle: Coordinate your wedding colors with the venue rather than fight it. Design your color palette for your wedding using the colors you already have available, even if they are ugly colors...
Even with that said, I still have to complain about the colors of my wedding venue. It's such a nice hotel, but...dark purple x dark red? Not to mention the yellowish backdrop of the stage...
...what's done is done, I'm still going to have to work around purple...
該讓人覺得安心的地方
卻讓我如此的不舒服與緊張
每天只想躲在自己的小天地
悶的我快窒息了
快樂在哪...?
好想要快快飛回去你身邊
我知道你可以給我一個能令我安心停留的小窩
只有在那,我才能真正的放鬆
