Yeah, that'll be stuck in your head allllll day. You're welcome! ;)
I have seen the topic come up a few times and I wanted to chat a bit about wedding day scents and the type of perfume you're going to wear that day.
Some brides wear the same thing they wear everyday. Usually because they love it, their significant other loves it and it's something familiar.
Sometimes they look for something new and different. Scents often trigger memories and feelings of nostaglia. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to take a whiff of your perfume and be transported back to one of the happiest days of your life?
And then there's me.
I won't be wearing any perfume for our wedding day. Now, I don't normally wear perfumes, but on a special occasion I have been known to splash on a lil somethin' sweet.
That is, until I met Mr. Coyote and his extremely sensitive olfactory receptors.

Anything with even the slightest scent will send the dude into a tailspin -- and sometimes it's not just scents. Mr. Coyote even suffers from ACHOO snydrome - a totally ridiculously named, but completely legitimate condition that causes you to sneeze when exposed to bright lights (usually the sun).
The point is... Even if I spray a few squirts of perfume on the opposite side of the apartment with the door closed and the windows open, Mr. Coyote's superhuman odor detection sense tingles. He sneezes, his eyes water, and even worse, he bitches and moans about it for an hour.
And so, there will be no wedding day perfume for Miss Coyote. At first I was kinda bummed about it, but is it worth it to smell pretty if my poor groom is all sniffling and sneezing at the altar? I guess not.
Plus, I figure I must smell pretty darn good without perfume if Mr. C is willing to hang around me all the time (without sneezing, coughing and cursing) so it might not be that bad to go au naturel on my wedding day.
Is anyone else forgoing perfume on their wedding day?
