Ring, ring, ring goes the (wedding) bell…
SO. We’re having our ceremony in a different place than our reception. And unfortunately, there’s no parking at Crissy Field (the ceremony location). Which means…we have to provide transportation to and from the ceremony for our guests. Which means…TROLLEY CARS!!!!
Yes, that’s right, people: we have reserved four trolley cars to cart our guests around the city. How much more San Francisco can you get? I’m so excited! The trolley cars have a three-hour minimum charter, but our ceremony isn’t going to be that long. So we’re planning to take an hour-long mini-tour of the city after the ceremony, before we head back to the Green Room for the reception! I am so excited. We’re going to get off in random places to take fun pictures (and thanks to a bit of forethought, we have two “day of” coordinators who will be managing all the guests). Have I mentioned how excited I am?
Last week I talked to Kris over at Cable Car Charters (they’ll be providing us with our wedding-day transportation). I asked him if the trolleys can drive down Lombard Street. After all, how awesome would it be to have a photo of four trolley cars, all decorated, going down Lombard? Sadly, it ain’t gonna happen. Turns out, no tour vehicles are allowed anywhere in Russian Hill. Sad. :( Here’s how awesome it could have been:
Yet another hackjob from Photoshop! Original photo here, and trolley here.
Oh well, I’m over it. San Francisco has plenty of amazing places to take photos. I’ve been thinking about the Palace of Fine Arts ever since we came up with the idea of a trolley tour. Everyone gets their wedding pics taken there for a reason. It’s gorgeous!

And when I talked to Kris, he suggested the windmill at Golden Gate Park:

Which also got me thinking about the many amazing places in Golden Gate Park, like the BUFFALO (did you know that? There are buffalo in Golden Gate Park!)! Or the Conservatory of Flowers! Or the Japanese Tea Garden!
Photo from here.
He also suggested Fort Point (for good pictures in front of the Golden Gate Bridge), the Legion of Honor (gorgeous) or Alamo Square (where the Painted Ladies, aka “the Full House Houses” are). There are so many awesome places to go!
No matter what, those trolleys are going to be decorated. I’m going to make one sign myself, but I was thinking about having the bridesmaids come over a couple of nights before the wedding for a little pizza party/trolley sign decorating party. We would have three to make, and I bet we’d have a great time making them beautiful or heinous, whichever we’re in the mood for (I suggested the groomsmen, too, but Mr. Stinkerpants didn’t think they’d want to participate).
I’m so excited!

Rihanna’s sudden and meteoric rise made American Idol hopefuls look like seasoned crooners who had spent a decade on the road before hitting the big time. Plus her naked rihanna slipped pictures of the paparazzi hit the papers this week.

At one point, though, Rihanna did enter a beauty and talent pageant at her school. Singing Mariah Carey’s “Hero” as part of the talent component, Rihanna went on to win the competition. But that performance—and singing in the shower or in front of the mirror—was the extent of her musical experience before 2004. Rihanna news and gossip.

It started when Paris Hilton nude made friends with future stars like Nicole Richie (they met in kindergarten) and Kim Kardashian as a teen in the ‘90s, while bouncing around from the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in NYC to a chic Beverly Hills pad to a summer home in the Hamptons. She went to 4 high schools during her teens, and was on the ice hockey one night in paris team at a boarding school in Connecticut briefly, if you can believe that. Eventually she was expelled from her final high school in 1999 for “not following the rules” and went on sex tape to get her GED later. Clearly, Paris learned how to party and bend the rules at a pretty young age.
Paris Hilton Sex
Paris Hilton’s celebrity friends are on red alert again as she has lost her phone for a 2nd occasion. Paris took to Twitter.com on Sunday to her let friends know that she was without her ever-present cell and they should be on the look out! Paris wrote, “I lost my phone last night, so if you texted me last night or today and I didn’t answer, it’s cause I didn’t get it.” That tweet has sent shockwaves through Hollywood. Back in Feb 2005, someone stole her T-Mobile Sidekick account and caused chaos in celebrity circles by gaining access to the numbers and details of the rich and famous. The prankster posted numbers of numerous celebrities online and also some revealing and embarassig pictures of Paris. Some of the celebs who had their direct numbers were revealed included Christina Aguilera, Ashlee Simpson, Vin Diesel and even San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom.

There have been rumours a new Paris Hilton sex tape exists circulating for the past few weeks - could the Simple Life star really make the same mistake twice? Website mediatakeout.com have alleged they have proof another Paris Hilton sex tape exists, and this one involves Hilton and Gnarls Barkley star Cee-lo. To prove the tape exists, Mediatakeout.com have printed a very NSFW picture of who they are claiming to be Gnarls Barkley singer Cee-lo and the diminutive Miss Hilton engaged in a sex act.
