So I am probably one of the most laid back brides I know. Since Brad proposed and we secured our location and date, I have been nothing but laid back. I honestly do not care what things look like, as long as they are beautiful. This speaks to my complete lack of creativity. I really wish there were a "Martha Stewart" bone in my body, but there just isn't. I've tried. You may ask my former roommate and one of my best friends, Lorraine, how good I am at decorating. Yeah...it's not pretty. I lack creativity to create a vision of the wedding. But thankfully, I have surrounded myself with incredibly creative people that help me create a vision. Case and point, this weekend Brad and I went up to Logan to visit his family. It was Brad's birthday weekend and also General Conference. It was a great visit. While we were up there, I asked my future mother in-law if we could go and look at flowers. Brad's oldest sister, Jenni, her father in-law is a florist. (Did you follow that?) Talk about a hook up! We went over to the store and me and Brad looked through magazines picking out different flowers that we liked that fit into our color scheme. It was a lot of fun, but like most things in wedding planning, it was overwhelming. My creative senses were completely overloaded and I didn't know what to do! All I knew was what colors I wanted my bouquet and Brad's boutonniere to be (a mixture of light yellow and dark purple flowers), and what colors I wanted everyone else's stuff to be (pale yellows). I also knew what shapes I wanted the bouquets to be in. Spherical. Nothing dangling or cascading down my bouquet. Simple. And elegant. Beyond these loose set of guidelines, I had no idea what I wanted. We looked for a few minutes at the magazines and then my future sister in-law, Alisha, came up to me and said that she told the florist to do whatever they wanted within her guidelines for her wedding, and the flowers turned out prettier than she could of ever dreamed. SOLD! And that's what I did. I told them to do whatever they feel would fit my style and to just do it. So...I have no clue what my flowers are going to look like! HAHA!

I told you, I'm a laid back bride.
