Elegant

The wedding plans are coming along nicely, and everything seems to be based around the word "elegant". In the beginning it was fun and casual. That is, when we were thinking cocktail reception. Over the past few months things have changed some because we are doing the sit down dinner. So...Windows on the River alone says elegant. My dress...although chosen when we were still in the fun and casual phase has now been made even more perfect because it too is elegant. Before I was worried it would be too much for a fun and casual evening. I bought my veil today and ordered my shoes today...another step toward elegant. The bridesmaids dresses moved from a fun and flirty cocktail dress to a long, black and elegant dress. And you all got a chance to see it on a previous post. The cake is crisp and clean and the DJs are classy. All adding up to hopefully the most elegant night of our lives. However...we have hit one bump in the road. I think I can say this is the first thing to not go quite right.
Greg and I ordered a few wedding things a couple weeks ago and they arrived today!! Yay! we got our toasting flutes, cake servers, and bubbles. And we got our napkins ans matchbooks!! The matchbooks are probably what we were most excited about!! But, they are very sloppy and "un-elegant", definitely not crisp and clean. Don't worry, I am working with the company to see what I can do. But as everything decided for the wedding has screamed elegant or been decided against if it was not...this has made that come to a screeching and disappointing halt.

I suppose this isn't a big deal, but I needed to vent a minute. Hopefully this is the worst thing to happen along the way...cause I think I'm doing pretty good!
