Cinematic Inspiration – New Wedding Theme!

This morning, I woke up and one of my all-time favorite movies ever is on TV – Steel Magnolias! As I cried my way through it, a thought hit me.

WE SHOULD HAVE A STEEL MAGNOLIAS WEDDING.

How awesome would that be?! Big giant poofy dress. Weddin’ coluhs blush and bashful makin’ The Grove look like someone hosed it down with Pepto Bismol. Bridesmaid’s dresses that make ’em look like fat, pink cupcakes.

I already copied Julia Robert’s wedding hair-do for my sophomore Sweet Heart dance.

I bet if I grew my hair out (and added some fake pieces) I could do it again. (OK, that may be wishful thinking but I bet I could rock M’Lynn’s football helmet.)

AND we could have some bleedin’ armadilla groom’s cake!

It’s gonna be a lovely pah-ty!

Oh, who am I kidding? I’d never be a “Shelby”. Or a “M’Lynn”. I MIGHT be a “Clairee” (Looks like two pigs fightin’ under a blanket.) , but most likely I will be just like “Ouiser Boudreaux” with my sarcasm and potty mouth and all.

I’m pleasant. Damn it! I saw Drum Eatenton this morning at the Piggly Wiggly, and I smiled at the son of a bitch ‘fore I couldn’t help myself.

Whatchy’all think? Should we do it?
