My Wedding Was Almost Ruined…
Sunday, March 8th, 2009I wanted the fairy tale wedding… You know… the ceremony in the church, the reception afterwards and the stretch limousine that whisked us away to our honeymoon… I know I could pull it off with amazing wedding planning…
That wonderful image would have been tarnished if I didn’t change two things before my wedding day: my weight and my hair.
I know it sounds silly now but before my wedding these two things were stressing me out. I want to tell you about my experience and how I found a solution to both of these problems so you won’t have to feel anxious before your wedding like I did.
I so desperately wanted to lose weight so I could look good at my wedding and fit nicely into the elegant wedding dress I had paid a lot for. I really believed that if I started dieting months before my wedding that I would fit that beautiful dress. But I fell short of my goal and still hadn’t reached my ideal weight and size without feeling uncomfortable wearing my gown.
I was worried that with so little time remaining before my wedding that I would have to get my dress altered at the last moment. But one of my friends whom I mentioned my weight problem to, told me about how she had a similar problem and recommend a wedding day diet that would help me lose weight and reduce my size in a short period of time. I followed her advice and read the weight loss book she recommended and to my surprise I lost enough weight and lower my size just in time to fit into my wedding dress perfectly.
I felt happy I could wear my wedding dress proudly and now I had one last problem to conquer… my wedding hair. I have damaged hair. I guess I had over done it with those perm chemicals. One day I took a trip to the health and beauty section of a drug store and bought a styling iron that promised it would restore luster and body back into my hair.
The styling iron actually worked. My hair never looked better and I was confident that my wedding hair will look fantastic. But a few weeks later, the styling iron I was hoping to use for my wedding day died on me. I later discovered that it was recalled because it was a fire hazard. Now I had to find a new hair styling iron and I was asking around for a good reliable brand.
Once again a friend saved my day. She told me about FHI hair styling tools and how fast and easy it was to use. Once again I took my friends advice and purchase my own FHI and tested it before my big day. It worked even better than the iron I previously own. I did a little information digging and found out that Beyonce Knowles and Jennifer Aniston had their hair done with FHI irons.
When my wedding day finally arrived, it wasn’t perfect. There were a few small things that didn’t turn out the way I had envisioned… but my weight and my hair was exactly the way I wanted it to be.
