March 25, 2010 - Wedding planning is for nerds.

So I was thinking that maybe I should use this blog to really document what’s going on in my life. I usually don’t like talking about things until they are set in stone, so I’m always waiting on talking about a lot of stuff that I shouldn’t. One thing I can talk about is the crazyness that is planning a wedding when you are anti-wedding. In case you missed me rambling about it, I’m getting married on October 2 of this year. And trying to plan a low-key, low-budget wedding when your fiance wants to invite his whole family and his 80 best friends is a little challenging.

I’m a very strange, eccentric, goofy, cynical-but-whimsical, opinionated, laid-back, geeky hermit. And so I want the wedding to reflect that. Rob had a very traditional idea of what weddings were like, but luckily I’ve been able to find a middle ground when it comes to incorporating my crazy wants and needs. I guess I see it as something that is mostly to make Rob happy with his friends and family. So I’m just trying to stick my weirdness into it where ever possible.

The STDs (Save the Dates) will be the next thing I blog about. They are all done, and sitting next to me as I type this. But I’m waiting on address labels and stickers. I’ll post about them next week which is also when I’ll be sending them out.

I’ll have the usual costume/convention/pod-cast posts continuing soon. As usual, you can keep up with me on Twitter and Facebook.
