Everything For The Bride

It started out in Walmart but not the Walmart we usually go to, it had a completely different layout and everything. I found a white dress laying in the middle of the aisle and it kind of looked like a wedding dress so i tried it on and I realized that it has a lot of black and red towards the top. Then i put on a flower thing around my neck. Then I showed my mom but she didnt really care so we went home without the .00 dress. So then when we got home apparently there was a wedding but it wasn’t mine, it was another girls wedding (i dont know who she is) but she was upset and getting cold feet. She was also wearing the dress I saw at the store but before it turned red/black. I gave her a tiny stack of about 8 half-pieces of paper and I told her to write down why it was all worth it. And then I walked in the other room and I finally found out I am a server, and then my mom was telling me that I needed to do something to make her happy. Everyone was focusing on her happiness at that point. I don’t know why my mom was giving me orders but then I realized since I am a server I was hired for the wedding. So I came back with some tape and scissors and I grabbed a stack of napkins and I started making a huge paper rose. I had envisioned it in my mind, beautiful, but I never really got to actually make it. Then the table dissapears and then her entire family is in the room, including my mom, and my sister. (My mom and my sister IN REAL LIFE have gotten closer in the last year because she just had a kid and my mom helps her out, and my mom thinks that my sister likes her but my sister is just glad to have moved out and have her space because my mom is a control freak, but my sister is nice to her. When I was little they used to get into physical fights because my sister was out doing drugs and having sex etc and they couldn’t stand each other.) So then everybody was dressed up, including me, I think I felt like a guy, or maybe I was, I was in a guy servers uniform but it made me comfortable. And we we’re all sitting down. The bride was crying. And then my mom starts going on a rant about everything about the family she didn’t like or hated, etc etc (I don’t really remember) but then everybody starts yelling at her and nobody really likes her at this point, and I don’t know, there was just a lot of yelling and then my sister (who was sitting next to my mom on the couch) she pushes my mom off the couch and then she smiles about it. My mom is then on the floor and she is angry and quiet. I then gave my sister an approving smile without trying to make everybody else mad. I remember I tried speaking up about something but then everybody yelled at me for it so I kept quiet the entire time. Family Drama.. but then I look to my left, and sitting with me on the couch is my Mom. But then I look on the floor and there is another mom. It didn’t bother me at first because I was oblivious to it, but then I did a triple-take and I’m like "Why are there two of my moms?" and then everybody got quiet. And my stepdad was like "I will tell her." and then everybody starts yelling at him to keep it a secret and then he starts yelling a riddle in a tiny book. And then I somehow finished the riddle and I realized that I had two moms that looked the same but had different names. Then I realized the one that I know in real life, the one that is grouchy and works all the time, and controls everything I do so I don’t get hurt, that was the "mom" nobody liked in the dream. But the mom sitting next to me was the mom I knew when I was a kid, the one I got a long with. She was nice and calm and always smiling, and we got a long and I could tell her everything and I know when I’m talking to her she is actually paying attention instead of staring at my face for pimples or she wouldn’t go into "mom" mode and judge everything I do, and possibly get in trouble.
Then my dream changed and I got my dream, I just ran away. I was on the sidewalk, running with my best friend, and then she saw a red bird in the air, and it gradually turned into a red airplane with jets, and then we somehow got inside the airplane and we sailed over an island that was France, and then we we’re in another city, and then we we’re driving by car and we we’re looking for our favorite place to shop. :/

This wedding dress has been in the family and passed down from mother to the oldest daughter 7 times. It has a plane A-line skirt with flower beadings on the bodice and a sweetheart neckline. The only problem is the lace that starts at the top of the bodice and goes all the way up the neck and completely covers the arms all the way down to the wrist.

Would it be so awful if I had the lace removed completely? Would that ruin the dress for future brides in the family? Should I go get a dress instead of changing the family one?

Not only is the calla a very popular flower among brides, the calla may be the perfect flower for bridal bouquets. Callas are elegant, available in a wide range of colors, very long lasting and easy to work with once you master a few techniques. In this demonstration Leanne will create a simple natural styled bouquet.

Ok, the wedding is in July, civil do at a hotel, I’m only going to the evening (sucky work comitments)…

I want to look amazing as I haven’t seen my mate (the bride) in aaaages lol and I always look a scruff bag!! Obviously I don’t want to out-do the bride, but I still wanna look good lol.

And I’m so totally stuck

All I have as a starting point is a fascinator (I prefer hatinator… nvm) – http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/accessories/mini-top-hat-with-flower_190844801?icSort=-bestSellerScore [NOT this one, but very much like it, and completely black no pink rose for me!]

Any ideas/suggestions for the rest of the outfit/accessories/shoes etc etc?! I literally just have the hat :]
