This morning I woke up in a serious fit of laughter. I have had some crazy, silly, strange, and even scary wedding dreams so far, but this one might take the cake.
Let me preface this dream sequence by saying that (as you all know) I have been slightly freaking out about having my make-up done on my wedding day.
Anyway, the dream started out fine...all of my lovely ladies and I were getting ready for the wedding, hanging out, ready to go down the aisle, when all of a sudden I realized I wasn't wearing any make-up (HUGE deal for me if you know me). I started panicking and yelling to my mom that nobody had come to do my make-up! She said "well you're about to walk down the aisle!" So I was asking everyone to find me some make-up. Anyway, I don't know how that turned out because all of a sudden I was at the end of the aisle, and I was married. To an Asian guy that I had never met before, but reminded me a lot of Todd. (I have nothing against Asian men, but as you know, Todd is not Asian, so this was incredibly perplexing). I couldn't remember anything about the wedding, which was disturbing, but I didn't seem too distraught about it because as far as I knew I was married to Todd...just an Asian version of Todd (this could quite possibly have something to do with my obsession with Jon & Kate plus 8 and how I want to have 8 Asian babies...but that's for another blog post). Anyway, we were all standing around chatting when Jarrett (Monica's fiance) jumped out and said "Hey Monica! Let's get married right now!" Suddenly we were all (magically) in street clothes (jeans and t-shirts...yes even me, who had been in a wedding gown up until this point) and Monica was in a frilly, flowery wedding gown (TOTALLY not her style) and Jarrett was in a linen shirt and khaki's (like they were having a beach wedding...only no beach around) and they were walking down the aisle. BUT WAIT -- They weren't just walking! They were skipping and dancing down the aisle as all of us (the rest of my wedding party - guys and girls) were also skipping and dancing and singing (in unison!) "I Just Can't Wait to be King!" from The Lion King. WHAT?!?! SO FREAKING RANDOM!! Well I woke up just as Monica and Jarrett sealed the deal with their first kiss as man and wife to the tune of "Oh I just can't WAIT to be Kiiiiing!!"
And I haven't been able to get the song out of my head all morning.
Hilarious -- I had to call Monica at work this morning to tell her the story. She was crying from laughing so hard.
This dream might have beat out the "pink bridesmaid dresses, and Lori getting too drunk to walk down the aisle" dream as craziest wedding dream I've had thus far...although that one was pretty hilarious too. (Oh you haven't heard it? Here's the recap -- All of my bridesmaids showed up in pink dresses. I like pink, but it's totally not my style wedding wise, so I was very upset. And then Lori drank too many cocktails prior to the wedding ceremony and couldn't stand up and was falling all over the place, laughing hysterically, so she couldn't walk down the aisle. But it was actually sort of funny and I wasn't really upset about it for some reason...anyway she has since assured me that she will NOT be drunk prior to the walk down the aisle :) -- she's a good MOH)
Jenny assured me this morning over email (with the sweetest possible email tone she could muster) that unfortunately, the dreams will only get worse up until the wedding day. BUT, that it was all part of the fun of getting married! :) As long as they keep being this entertaining and crazy, I think I can deal.
SIDE NOTE:
Thank you to all of my fabulous lady friends to pointed me in the direction of a make-up person. I had previously contacted this specific person that had done make up for Lori, Jenny, and my friend/sorority sister Cami's weddings. Unfortunately I hadn't heard anything back -- but all three of them convinced me to try again, so yesterday I submitted an online request, and this morning I got a reply!! I'll be scheduling a trial run soon. On another note, I scheduled my hair trial for May 16th, which is SUPER exciting!!

OMG - hilarious. I had wedding dreams too. I had the no make-up dream in fact. My was a hair/make-up disaster combo. And I was walking up a very steep hill, sweating, in my dress to get to Eric.
I dream through my stress too. I had a perfect wedding though so maybe crazy wedding dreams = a drama free wedding day?
