So friends, I've come to understand that planning a 'dream' wedding is next to impossible unless you have a team of 1000 and a budget of, oh I don't know, $3 million. Meaning, if I happen to win the Lotta Max next week, you will see all of this at my wedding.
However, don't mistake me as ungrateful. After researching a few trumping ideas, I realized this is totally unrealistic and, well, stupid.

Exhibit A:

Fireworks.

There is so many things wrong with this idea. All I can think of is whoever I hire to light these things will lose all arm and eyebrow hair. That's a given. Besides it being a fire hazard, this ash-y idea does not fall within the budget.

Exhibit B:


A super-sized centerpiece.

So let me fill you in on a little detail. One of this suckers will set you back about $300 bucks. Let's multiply that by our 26 tables. A grand total of: $7800. I think not. I'll go with my idea...much nicer, and MUCH less.

Exhibit C:

The Belfry of Baked Goods.

People, who honestly needs a cake this size covered in a thousand roses? Unless you were a duke's daughter, a dream such as this should not even be considered. Plus, the grocery story called: they want their butter stock refilled.
