Where did time go!?
Ok, so, what feels like yesterday for me, I said to Tor “let’s get married. IN MAY NEXT YEAR.” And then it was today, and we are getting married in a week.
Wow.
Bre arrived in the country today, which in itself is pretty darn awesome - she’s coming all the way from Australia to be at my wedding!
My family is arriving late Tuesday, by train, and are staying at our apartment for the night - the hotel they’re booked in at closes their reception at 22, so if you arrive any later than that, you have to go to the gas station across the road to get your key. I love that. However, they opted to just stay the night here instead - saves them some money as well. Does not save us any money, as tomorrow we will have to drop by Ikea to buy more pillows and duvets. And as most of you may know, however much you know JUST what to get at Ikea, you always walk out of there with something more.
Leaving work today was strange. There were the usual “happy weekend” greetings, but I also got a whole lot of “good luck”s and “next time we see you you are married!”s. Not to mention all the “nervous yet?”s. That being said, I am not really nervous, per se.
I’m just now remembering that I was supposed to compile a playlist for the wedding reception/dinner/coffee/whatever. So far? 17 tracks. Someone, please help me. If you know a good, suitable song that should be on the soundtrack of my wedding (minus the church, they do only hymns and everything has to be played by the organist - no CDs allowed), let me know!

Aww, this must all be so exciting for you. It will be such a special event in your life that you will never forget, and I am just so happy for you :)
As for the music, I must suggest “God Only Knows” by The Beach Boys. I know it’s not in everyone’s taste (I stll can’t understand why! :(), but it’s one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard, and it just takes my breath away everytime. I would definitely want it at my wedding-reception, but then again, I’m me :P Haha. It’s an honest, loving love-song, that speaks of love as it truly is - with all its ups and downs, but how the love you share for one another is still eternal and everlasting.
Anyway, that was just a suggestion from me :)

I’ve got that one on my list already! :) When we were still planning on having our first dance as a married couple (we can’t now due to shortage on space, boo), that was the song we’d chosen for it. :D Gotta love The Beach Boys!

So you probably haven’t even heard of this guy, but his name is Lee Coulter and he has really awesome music: “Titanium”, “Photograph” and “Dance of the Traveling Lovers” are some of my favorites.
His myspace is http://www.myspace.com/leecoulter. If you like the stuff I can send you the tracks since it’s kind of hard to get a hold of his music…
also: Shania Twain “forever and for always” and “still the one”. and i’ll post again if I think of any more :)
*hugs*
