Being a Bridesmaid

I’m excited. Tomorrow marks the first wedding in over two years (with the exception of my own) that I’ll be attending as a guest. And beyond just being a guest I get to be a bridesmaid as well. Which means I get to wear this lovely pale pink dress and a pair of absolutely delightful heels. I get to wear makeup and don’t have to worry about whether or not my hair will fall in front of my lens during family portraits. I also get to dance during the reception, eat a piece of wedding cake without feeling guilty, sit during the entire dinner hour, and, maybe, have a glass of wine. Now that I think about it, this is going to be a whole new wild world for me.

No doubt it will be nearly impossible for me to make it through an entire wedding without snapping a few pictures. But I’m going to try with all my might to relax, enjoy the day, and experience life as a bridesmaid. Just me, my fellow bridesmaids, my pretty pink Amsale dress, and maybe just a few pictures.
