oh my dear lord

I have already been to one bridal show and the only bad thing was that I was by myself. A couple weeks ago I had asked my sister in law and Mia to come with me to a bridal fair. Be very thankful Mia that you couldn't go!!!!!

The afternoon started out nice. We went to lunch and then we headed to The Hotel Arizona. This hotel was once a Holiday Inn and it was quite nice back in the day. I remember thinking it was huge when one of my cousins had his wedding there like 15-20 years ago.

Whatever though, I'm there for the freebies and raffles. So we walk into the lobby and find ourselves at the table to sign in. While signing in, Tap Sensation began dancing. Wow! I guess you can bring these ladies in for entertainment for your wedding or other events. My SIL and I were just in awe. Why would anyone want these ladies as entertainment. Whatever.

So then we went into the main area and there was a huge table with a whole spread of food. We were upset that we just went to lunch when we could have been munching on these goodies. I started down the line filling out raffle tickets then we finally were able to sit down for the fashion show. At this point I was a bit disappointed because I thought it was going to be bigger. I was also disappointed because this bridal fair was also a quincenera fair. Before the fashion show the dj from Tequila DJ's announced how you can change up the quincenera waltz which is customary. Instead of girls in fancy princess dress with their chamberlains nicely dressed there were 3 girls dressed in black t-shirts and jean skirts and 3 guys in black shirts and black pants. They didn't dance to any waltz instead they choreographed some crappy moves to hip hop songs and quebradita. It was horrible!

We decided to stick around for the fashion show and 15 minutes turned into like 45 agonizing minutes of waiting around. Finally the fashion show started and the little girls dressed in flower girl and junior bridesmaid dresses came out. Then next came out the quincenera dresses, then wedding and bridesmaid dresses. The wait in between each set was like another 20 minutes. Oh but we weren't bored. No way, not when there was some woman with boobs popping out the side of her dress as an announcer. We couldn't stop staring at her because we were positive it was a guy.

We decided the whole performance was sponsored by the southside of Tucson. My SIL admitted earlier to me she was a bit hungover and so at the bridal fair I told her I might be a little hungover too because everything was just unreal.
