Say Yes To the Dress

Well remember i told you about that show on TLC....Say Yes To the Dress?
And remember how i told you i applied for the show when i went on the Kleinfeld website?
Well,

The next day i got an e-mail from one of the show's producers!

Heres what it says...


He[y] [Lola],

I am the Casting Producer for Say Yes and I would love to film with you at your appointment at Kleinfeld. How soon would you wish to come and who do you plan on bringing with you? I know you told me about the engagement and your family. Could you tell me more about it and do you know who would come around and come to Kleinfeld with you?Do they have ill feelings towards your fiance? Tell me more about him. I am looking to fit you in in the next couple of weeks so please let me know how you feel about that and if that is too soon for you then we can push for a later date. I also need a recent photo of you and you fiance, and his full name.

They want to film my appointment at Kleinfeld!!!!
Woohooo!
I don't really know if i'm going to do it...but how cool is that?
Here's a clip about the show for those of you who don't know it...


Kleinfeld

I went on the Kleinfeld website a few days ago to browse wedding dresses. Kleinfeld is the top bridal boutique/mega store in Manhattan. I was pretty unimpressed with their site though...not as many dresses as i would have liked. Nonetheless, i found a few good ones.
I also think i found "the one"...
I wonder if you can tell which one it is...Here they are...

As you can tell, I like big big dresses. This is my one and only chance to wear one, so i'm going for all the drama voyeurs.





One of the above was my favorite. I saw it for the first time on this show called "Say Yes to The Dress." It comes on TLC....have you seen it?


The show is filmed in Kleinfeld and it shows brides to be on the hunt for their wedding dresses.

While i was on the website, there was a little blurb about the show, so i read it. It also had a section where you could share your own story. And, I did. We'll see what becomes of that.


Anyway....my "the one" dress is...

I love it!

Its big and Fab-U-Lous!

But hub doesn't love it.
What do you think?

Picture this...

My weekend was better than yours.

And i mean it.

The baby was at grandma's which meant date night voyeurs.

Saturday morning i went for a manicure/eyebrow wax/massage to prepare...
Then i bought a sexy lil outfit...ooh la la...

I went home to meet hub and get ready to go...i was running late and he was mad at me...or so i thought...
So i rushed and took a whore bath ("washing your coochie, ass and arm pits"), brushed my hair straight, dressed and hit the pavement...30, minutes tops...

We went to see the lion king first...we had awesome orchestra aisle seats...we got there about 20 minutes late but the show was amazing. I tried to take some pics but they are shit.





After the show we tried to take a few pics but my stupid shitty camera that i bought on e bay sucks.

After the show, we went around the corner to Juniors to get some cheesecake. I fxckin love cheesecake. I got a red velvet cupcake (which tasted like ass) too. But i hate juniors food, so we went somewhere else for dinner...

Hub took me to a cute little french restaurant called Le Petit Un Deux Trois...somewhere around 44th street. We sat in an area called the green room. It was made to resemble a European courtyard, complete with glass roof...very romantic...The food was amazing...so was the champagne...
By the time we were done i was more than ready to go home and have some sexy time with my hub, then my cheesecake, but he kept insisting that we go to this spot that we call Goodlife. Its on 69th and riverside. The real name is Riverside Park, and its a pier that extends into the Hudson River. It's like a long boardwalk that actually extends into the river. Very beautiful. Nonetheless i didn't want to go because it was starting to get colder out and i was tired. He persisted, so i gave in and we jumped in a cab uptown.

Side view of goodlife

For some reason he had been peeing and peeing constantly all day, and as soon as we got there he had to go, but there was no bathroom so he let it rip right in front of whoever was there. It was soo tacky and yet so funny that i laughed hysterically for a good 5 minutes, and forgot how badly i had wanted to go home to chill.

We walked all the way to the edge of the pier and chose a seat. We sat for a while and reminisced about our times at Goodlife...when we first met....when he made me his girl...countless summer nights spent taking in the view and the river scent...
Then he started acting weird.


He keeled down.



He stood up.



He got on one knee.



He stood up.



None of this phased me or raised any question mark in my head, because he does weird stuff like this all the time. Especially when he's cold. He's the master of fidgeting when he's cold. Instead i got annoyed and started yelling at him to friggin sit down and enjoy the view.



Then he decided to stand infront of me. ugh i was pissed.


He asked me if i would be his forever.



I said "yes Keith"...still annoyed that he was standing in my way...still oblivious to what was going down...like i said, he does this stuff all the time...



Then he pulls out a huge box...i thought it was a watch...in my head, i was pleased...





...And he opens it...




And let me tell you voyeurs, it was no watch.



It was Ivanka (which is what i named her in honor of the bad bxtch Ivanka Trump....since Goodlife is located right in front of a colossal beautiful Trump building) and shes a bad bxtch.

Bad Bxtch Ivanka Trump


Goodlife and Trump Building

Ivanka and I







He proposed in style. And i laughed and cried and loved. I'll spare the words and details because they are our memories, and ours only. And by the way, the reson he kept kneeling and standing is because he wanted to do it when no one was near us, and people kept walking by...


After i composed myself we got in a cab and went home...

And just when i thought he had successfully rocked my world, i noticed rose petals under my apartment door.

Yes Yes yall!!!! He went all out!


He had someone come in and decorate our room while we were out. It was decked out with a ton of petals, chocolate covered strawberries, Godivas, champagne, red light...........
Ooh la la....


And we had a night to remember.


Ordinarily i would tell you all of the sexy details. But this night was so special that i don't want to share.

It was, however, simply and utterly AMAZING...
