I saw the most beautiful wedding dress today. All the others were nothing compared to this one I layed my eyes on. One of my good friends is getting married in august so me and her spent some time in a wedding store today. I’m happy for her because I know she is marrying a great guy. Still it’s all kind of surreal. That she’s getting married I mean because I've known her for so long. And I have a feeling things will not be quite the same anymore.
As for me and my point of view of the whole marriage thing I really don’t know where I stand.
They say most girls have been dreaming of their wedding since they were little. Well, I’m not one of those girls. I don’t know why. I guess the thought of marriage has never really gotten me excited. But what can I say, divorce has sort of been all around me as long as I can remember. So maybe that’s why. I still think the dress was amazing though.

I sometimes feel the same way about marriage, I'm not excited about it or really in a hurry to do it. I have also been surrounded by divorce. Every single person on both sides of my family have experienced at least one divorce, so I guess when you see that much seperation, the marriage thing doesn't look all that attractive.
And I'm sure the wedding dress was beautiful. :)
Oh perfect dress! Buy it!
Hey how have you been doing. I got your letter by the way. Things are starting to slow down a bit for me so i will write you back soon. I hope all is well. In the next couple of days you can expect me to start posting again. Until then smile miss!
va du med Elisabeth lr?ååh, neste gang vi e i byn må vi late som at vi ska gifte oss og gå inn i butikker og prøve kjoler!! e du med?:D
aldri vært den typiske jenta som drømme og planlegge bryllupet mitt eg heller - men d begynne jo å bli meir og meir aktuelt og mindre fjernt no når vi blir eldre.. eg får litt småpanikk eg. samtidig som eg føle eg må gifte meg snart, så e d d siste eg ha lyst til akkurat no.
wes: It definitely was!
christine: Buy it? Hehe, then I would be crazy for sure. Think of all the guys I would be scaring away... And when it comes to reality, I'm not even sure if I ever want to get married.
~k: I'm doing just fine. And I'll be checking up on your blog as always.
regine: Var med Elisabeth, ja. Late som vi skal gifte oss? Haha! Det hadde sikkert vært noe i seg selv. Men eg e selvsagt med;)
Panikk e vel det rette ordet når eg tenker på fremtidig bryllup også. Ser det bare ikke for meg av en eller annen grunn. Men fine kjoler legger nok også eg merke til.
Yeah the idea of marriage has not really been all that exciting to me either. Maybe, it is because right now i am focused on all the things i like and what i want to accomplish and want to do. you have to learn to love yourself before you can love another as the saying goes. That being said though i see alot of weddings, you see my buisness that i own is as a dj, mostly for weddings, and sometimes at certain weddings it is moving to see the radiance of love that is shared between two individuals, even if you have the looming thought that it wont work out between them, but sometimes you don't get that feeling sometimes you are just moved. It is beautiful to get paid to be part of the happiest day of most peoples lives. Not to mention i think it is the only job on earth where it is a ok to drink on the job and somewhat expected, that too is a perk. commenting on the dress, it has been my experience that wedding dresses are sometimes the most wonderful creations to come of fashion. It is great to see a couple in love, as i often see while running my buisiness, where the bride looks completly elegant, and her radiance is captured by the smile of her just married husband. That is why i like my job, I like to provide the soundtrack for the happiest day of someones life, it is very intimate and rewarding. The institution of wedding as such may be dying but, the institution of love is always inspiring. To be a witness to it is special i think.
p.s. I have been drinking, sorry for the typo's that are most likely present. you drink one bottle of wine and suddenly the world seems great and fuzzy all at once.
I'm glad you like your job.
I know I may be totally fucked up, but when I see a really happy couple several thoughts and feelings bursts up all at the same time. Sometimes it's a little depressing actually. Of course I'm happy for them, but... It becomes a constantly reminder of what was once mine and what I don't have anymore. That's what's sad about it. Or you can say that's what's sad about me!
No i wouldn't say that is whats sad about you. There is a bit of sadness that comes along with it too. I remember each time I do a wedding, that one person that i thought was the one. So I agree with you there, sometimes i also feel cynical, as if i can ascertain the future and what it has in store for them. It is really complicated but some weddings don't do that to you, maybe i am starting to become a bit desensitized or something.
