The Dark Side of Weddings...

Sunday is usually the day of rest & relaxation, but today was just another day of work. This time the spa was filled with veils, headpieces, wedding gowns, a bridesmaid & let us not forget the flower girl who is so damn cute you can't even get upset as she spills her trail mix all over the floor. I especially can not judge the shoveling of food since I also share in her passion for the m&m's in the mix.

Today was work but relaxed because it was just make believe for a photo shoot. I got to spend the day playing dress up with my friends who just happen to be very photogenic & didn't have to put up with annoying anorexic models who would definately not be ok with the m&m's. Of course no m&m's is why they look like they do. However we are shooting for hair & makeup not the Victorias Secret fashion show so I will be just fine with the friends.

As we primp, polish, & pamper the brides & more I started to feel like I was missing something. Why not step out of the common bridal box & go edgy & extreme? It is rare that I am attracted to anything common. The hair got bigger, liner got darker, & bridezilla went goth - I love it! When you really examine the world of weddings it often brings out the darker side of people. Thus the term bridezilla. We just went darker in a different way which looked really hot! Thank God for my friends who let me do anything to them. A Sunday at the spa was actually fun for a change.

Speaking of change, shouldn't there be some type of warning when the tolls go up on the highway? What if you don't easy pass & you don't throw your change in the cup holder, & you debit everything? What do you do if you are changeless at a toll booth? I think there should be an over flow cup, like the ones at a register that say "have a penny, leave a penny, need a penny, take a penny". This is brought to mind because as "friend" drove in to do amazing hair for the shoot she fell change short! As people are blaring their horns, she rummages through the bottom of her purse & finally finds the balance needed in the crease of the passanger seat. Thank God. What if her lack of change had caused her to miss the shoot & I was short a stylst all because there was no warning of the inflated tolls? I don't think the people at pendot realize just how much they can effect peoples lives. I would have missed out on huge curls gone goth & the perfect wandoozeled bridal shot. Luckily I was saved by some random change from a prior purse spill. Amazing how things can change on a dime...
