POOL PARTY

― river wolf, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:36 (nineteen years ago)

you can't call it a dinner, then!

....at least it's not a "find the leprechaun's pot o' gold!" treasure hunt?

― jessie monster, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:37 (nineteen years ago)

i told my mom i was going to wear this to rehearsal dinner. she has not e-mailed me since ;_;

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:37 (nineteen years ago)

well that would have treasures at least

― river wolf, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:37 (nineteen years ago)

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:39 (nineteen years ago)

i'll pray for tombot first, if that's okay w/you

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:40 (nineteen years ago)

dude he just has to wear a suit from the men's warehouse and doesn't even have to deal with a crazy lady with a lord of the rings tattoo at all.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:41 (nineteen years ago)

but you can just do that, whatever!!

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:41 (nineteen years ago)

What does he have to wear? Pink shirt, green cummerbund?

― StanM, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:41 (nineteen years ago)

yeah dudes almost never get fucked sartorially in these situations.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:42 (nineteen years ago)

(AAARRRGGGHHH damn you, xpost)

― StanM, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:42 (nineteen years ago)

i actually have not seen his suit so for all i know it is leopard print.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:42 (nineteen years ago)

I actually had to convince my mother that the BMs shoes didn't have to be exactly the same. God, I am so glad that I will *hopefully* never have to plan a wedding ever again. Although it was fun and most things turned wonderfully, I hated planning and am very glad I only had to deal with doing so for six months. I feel so bad for you regarding the bedazzled flip flops - that's pretty bad. Also, a girl I work with did make her BMs carry parasols. The groomsmen worse khakis with flower short sleeved button downs. For serious!

― ENBB, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:43 (nineteen years ago)

The groomsmen worse khakis with flower short sleeved button downs.

UH.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:45 (nineteen years ago)

whoa that's a bit much. unless they got married on a beach but even then...!

my mom was glad enough that i agreed to wear an actual gown instead of the minidress i had chosen for myself so i mean basically the BMs could've shown up in pajamas and she wouldn't have cared.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:45 (nineteen years ago)

just read above comments - the cowoker bride also had a pool party after the reception and she herself wore flip flops. They weren't just any flip flops though - they were those classy platform flip flops made out of foam or some crap like that.

― ENBB, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:46 (nineteen years ago)

hahahahahahahahaha oh god those things, my friend brought them up when i was telling him about all this. "at least you don't have to wear the platform flip-flops."

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:48 (nineteen years ago)

I mean seriously, what the hell.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:49 (nineteen years ago)

Ha - me too! I initially found a short pink dress I wanted to wear but wound up, much to my mother's delight, wearing a very simple off the shoulder long white dress BM dress that looked enough like a proper wedding gown so that she got off my back. Still, she had something to say about the shoes. Amazing.

― ENBB, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:49 (nineteen years ago)

haha it is weird as someone who once potty-trained a toddler to attempt to read "BM" as anything other than bowel movement

― nickalicious, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 19:51 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, my bowel movement dress was pretty amazing. ;-)

That reminds me of last night when I had to explain to my husband's father why I couldn't handle hearing him talk about wanting to pick up some "faggots with peas and chips" on the way home. In England faggots are meatball type things. When his Mom said that I "shouldn't bother trying faggots because [I] wouldn't like them," I nearly died especially since we were in a bar and within earshot of several other tables.

― ENBB, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 20:01 (nineteen years ago)

Ally, if you wear that silver leaotard, I will give you $5.

The one time I was a bridesmaid, I asked my friend "what shoes should I wear??" and she said "Oh, I don't care".

― tokyo rosemary, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 20:50 (nineteen years ago)

At my wedding I didn't really care about the shoes the bridesmaids were wearing either -- those dyed-to-match satin shoes are always heinous and gross, I wouldn't force people to wear them. But those are still more palatable than bedazzled flip-flops, ugh. I hate flip-flops enough without any bedazzlement.

― Nicole, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 20:59 (nineteen years ago)

ally i know you probably already said this but where in AZ is the wedding?

― g®▲Ðұ, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 20:59 (nineteen years ago)

yes where exactly?

― brownie, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:01 (nineteen years ago)

on the beautiful campuses of asu.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:01 (nineteen years ago)

So it's at a college campus, on St. Patrick's Day. So much makes more sense now.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:03 (nineteen years ago)

shut up.

i used to live right next door to asu for a year.

in fact, i lived in a sorority house at asu for two weeks of my life.

― g®▲Ðұ, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:04 (nineteen years ago)

I am frightened by "bedazzlement". Bedazzlement is, like, something that happens to people when they take acid and wear color refracting glasses at the roller rink. Your shoes shouldn't be bedazzled, this could lead to disastrous fall-downs.

― nickalicious, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:05 (nineteen years ago)

by arizona law, sorority houses are technically, legally considered whorehouses.

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:05 (nineteen years ago)

its true.

― g®▲Ðұ, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:06 (nineteen years ago)

This begs questions. Though perhaps Ally answered them.

― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:06 (nineteen years ago)

ally if you need hot tips on where to go blow off steam when away from the wedding, shoot me an e-mail.

― g®▲Ðұ, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:07 (nineteen years ago)

I don't see what's wrong with the tea-length dress, but then again I wouldn't.

― jaymc, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:07 (nineteen years ago)

yeah i was powned on dress knowledge last night

― Mr. Que, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:08 (nineteen years ago)

Bedazzled flip-flops are almost so bad it's good territory.

You need to paint FUCK OFF on your toenails or something.

― tokyo rosemary, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:10 (nineteen years ago)

the tea-length dress is just mystifying. i think the idea of it is that it's somehow more elegant than a knee-length dress, but not...too..elegant? like an ankle-length dress would be? as if that were a legitimate problem, to come up with a dress that was both flirty and elegant at the same time? whatever. that just seems dumb. and if you don't have skinny calves it makes it seem that your legs are uniformly the width of the widest point of your calf. in short, HATE.

― horseshoe, Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:11 (nineteen years ago)

ok i e-mailed but now not sure if it'll ever go thru because i sent it from webmail link 8[

― the schef (adam schefter ha ha), Tuesday, 13 March 2007 21:11 (nineteen years ago)

these flip flops would look good at a wedding

i was inbetween apartments after just deciding to take a year off from school in chicago.

due to the law ally mentioned above, sororities were not allowed to have "houses." until 2001, they got an entire floor of a dorm instead.

the school and the (very well endowed) sororites found a loop hole where they sold (or maybe leased?)campus land to a private contractor who built this huge condos/dorms complex to house ALL sororities on campus (and asu is a huge greek school).

a good friend was a sophmore and a sorority member at the time. She mangaed to get an early move-in just as construction was completing and i was her roomate until i got the lease on my new apartment, (at a complex that might as well have been a frat/sor house).
