Impromptu Roadtrips


Yesterday, we had a little bit of a snafu with the suits the guys are going to be wearing in our wedding. They're going to be wearing gray pants and vests from JCPenney.

This one to be exact.

 Well, little did we know, the backs of the vests came in two different colors. This is not helpful when all the guys need to look the same.

Upon further investigation, we realized that sizes Small and X-Large came in bronze backs and Mediums and Larges came in silver backs. I much preferred the silver, since it was close to the gray of the suit.

Well, gosh darn it, I called almost every JCPenney in the state of Georgia to see if they had 3 Small vests with silver backs. We located one about 40 minutes north of us.

So, into the car we went. We drove 40 minutes and managed to get one small  vest with a silver back, pants in my brother's size, and one tie. So, then we went to another JCPenney about 20 minutes northwest of there and found Brice's pants and a medium vest for one of the guys.

We're still on the hunt for two smalls though...I told Brice, if worst comes to worst, I have blog friends all over and we could get them to check their Penneys for us!

Luckily we've still got 8 months til the wedding, so we've got time to get it all sorted. We're just glad we discovered this problem now and not 3 weeks before the wedding!

That's nuts about the vests... why would they not make them all the same color on the backs?! what a pain. Still can't believe it's only 8 months away!!!
