Wedding Dreams

I had my first wedding dream the other night.

I’ve had dreams before about getting married, but this was the first time I actually dreamed about the wedding that I am actually planning and will actually participate in.  I suppose it’s not suprising – it’s just over 9 months away, and I’m at a stage of planning where I’m having to think about it a lot.

It was a very odd dream, though.  In it, I was trying to get ready.  I had to put on my makeup and do my own hair, and I was running really late.  Like, it was 30 minutes past the start time, and I still hadn’t gotten dressed or done anything with my hair or face.  Everyone kept telling me it was fine, no big deal, etc., but I was really stressing out because there were all those people waiting on me, and I was late.

I’ve got a thing about being punctual just in general, and I get very stressed out when I’m running late for something, so it is actually not surprising that my dream-self was working herself into a tizzy over that.

So I was trying to do my hair, only I had no idea what I was going to do with it, and I wasn’t able to make it look nice.  I had my makeup half on and my hair half done, and then I realized…I’d forgotten to have my dress altered.  So it didn’t fit, and it bagged around my chest and shoulders.

I think my dream-self started having a full-on panic attack right about that point in the dream, but I’m not sure, because my real self woke up.

So, note to self – don’t forget to have the dress altered, or you will cry.
