Being P's Groomswoman | The Engagement Party...

This past Saturday night was Phil's engagement (Or engaygment) party where he finally asked people to be in his bridal groom party, which includes yours truly and my lovely husband.

He gave each of his nine party members (Yes, there are nine people on each grooms' side) a shot glass with our names, the wedding date and "Groomswoman" or "Groomsman" etched into it. And he gave his dad, whom he asked in the sweetest speech ever to be his best man, a beer glass with stuff etched on it. It was really cute.

Unfortunately I didn't take very many pictures because the lighting was really bad at the place where they had the party (And two days before the party I broke out in rashes/hives from eating something from a fast food restaurant, so my face was and still is jacked up). But despite a lack of photographic evidence, we had a great time at the party.

Being K's Bridesmaid | Wedding Dress Shopping...

Over the weekend I had my first official duty as one of my sister's bridesmaids. I went dress shopping with my sister, our mother and Lisa. We went to two bridal shops here on Long Island, Village Bridal and Bridal Reflections in search of THE dress.

While we were at the first shop she officially asked Lisa and I to be her bridesmaids with these super cute and hilarious gifts that her wedding planners (Our friends Eileen and Jade) put together.

She didn't purchase a dress while we were out shopping but I'm pretty sure that she is going to end back up at Village Bridal to put a deposit on one of the dresses she tried on because she was pretty in love with it but wanted to check out her other options. We'll just have to wait and see...

Engagements All Around...

While Justin and I were in Asia both my sister and Phil both respectively got engaged. As I am the sister of one and one of the best friends of the other I highly suspect that I will be in both bridal parties, and I may or may not be someone's maid/matron of honor. Because of these assumed facts I feel like I should come up with some sort of series title for both of their upcoming nuptials because we all know I'm going to end up blogging about my experience being in two bridal parties only a month and a half-ish apart (They both have already expressed that they would like to get married next year and the dates they tentatively gave me are less than two months apart).

Honestly the only series titles I can think of currently are "Being K's and/or P's Bridesmaid" and I'm not sold on them. I'm sure I'll have to pick two soon because these two are moving fast with their wedding planning (Says the person who got engaged in May and married in September of the same year). But yeah, I hope you look forward to the chaos that I'm about to endure for the next year and if you have any title suggestions I'd love to hear them.
