Inappropriate Wedding Songs

As I was looking for some alternative songs for our wedding reception cocktail hour playlist, I came across a list of the top 20 inappropriate songs to play at a wedding. These are hilarious. Hopefully no one would actually listen to these and think they were happy love songs. Here are some of my favorites in no particular order:

1. D-I-V-O-R-C-E by Tammy Wynette..this was number one on the list for pretty obvious reasons
2. If You Wanna Be Happy by Jimmy Soul
"If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife so for my personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you". I mean, these lyrics are pretty hilarious, but I guess I understand why they might not be the most appropriate for a bride/groom 1st dance.
3. Better Man by Pearl Jam.. Anyone who knows Matt knows how much he loves Pearl Jam. This is probably one of his least favorites which is good b/c it will not be played at the wedding. We thought it would be hilarious for our slideshow, but unfortunately can't actually go through with that.
4. Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now by The Smiths Playing a song that makes you want to die at the end is never appropriate.
5. Gold Digger by Kanye West.. Everyone knows I am marrying Matt for his money already. No need to rub it in by playing this ditty.
6. It's the End of the World As We Know It by REM
7. Run for Your Life by The Beatles.. Threats in lyric form are not cool for a wedding.

Three More Months!!

88 days to be exact!!!!

Matt and I had a great time at our Pre-Cana/Engagement Retreat this weekend and are even more excited about getting married than ever!!!

Stay tuned for wedding party person of the week! I've already pulled their name out of the hat and am working on my write up!!!

Whaaat? I don't even know what to say!

So I was looking for a cute animal picture (pictures of dogs at weddings) to go along with my post that was going to say we only have THREE MORE MONTHS and came across this website, marryyourpet.com You literally pay to marry your pet. After entering the site, I came across Matilda, the pet and partner priest who has been in the profession for quite some time. She will marry you and your pet. I mean what is this? I think I am going to do this for Matt and Brother. I myself would marry Brother, but I married my cat, Willie, when I was 8..seriously, I did that.

Anyway, there are three levels of the pet marriage starting with the "Small Wedding", where you just receive a marriage certificate, but who wants that? I mean, yeah you need to make it official with the certificate and all, but if you are going to marry your pet, you really should go all out. I would get Matt and Brother the "Biggest Wedding". For a little over $400, Matt and Brother could not only get a marriage certificate, they would get a T-Shirt AND an embroidered wall plaque. Notice the detailed crosstitching. Gorg! Sign us up!

Wedding Wishlist: Lanvin

Alber Elbaz might be my favorite designer of all time. As the creative director and head designer for Lanvin, he has turned the historical house into one of the most influential and covetable labels out there. In 2008, he launched Collection Blanche, a line of bridal gowns and along with it, adorable wedding gear that I MUST have. I have been eyeing this shirt ever since Matt and I got engaged, but in all honesty, even I know not to spend $500 on a "Just Married" T-shirt. That's why I was so happy to see these new additions today!

Although this shirt would be such a cute cover-up for our Honeymoon in Bora Bora, I may save my money and get this notebook instead!


Lanvin Happy notebook: $44.70
