Points I am trying to make:
- I don't want this to be MY SPECIAL DAY, I just want to be Katie, marrying Nick, with as many family and friends as they could afford to attend. This isn't about me in a white dress being the center of attention. Its about me publicly announcing my commitment to this man, while I happen to be wearing a white dress.
- Who cares about all the matching and personalized everything? Yes, parties do look fabulous with great decorations. Parties are also fabulous with nothing more than good food, good music and lots of friends and family.
- Why does there have to be a terrible industry that makes me wish we eloped? I want my family and friends there, I just want them to leave all those "wedding expectations" the style network shoved down their throats at home.
That being said, if we get any personalized crap from Things Remembered, I hope its at the wedding and not the shower because there is no way I will be able to accept the gift with a straight face. Oh, the horror of personalized bullshit. Shoot me now :)

I got the same 2 mags this weeks and I also saw the toilet paper and thought all the stuff from things remembered was over priced crap. There was not one thing in that catalog that made me think "Oh that'd be nice to have." It was all junk! Sadly, Adam and I have both received some of that stuff from things remembered as thank you gifts.....and we have never ever used any of them....I dont know any one that ever has!
I think people only buy that stuff if they don't know you at all. They think they are being thoughtful, but really they are just wasting their money
