The wedding suit

I fell in love during the 73rd Academy Awards with Angelina Jolie's white suit.
I found it to be more daring than many of the skin baring dresses that other actresses were showing up in. Not only was a woman wearing a suit to the Oscar's, but a white suit at that! White normally blends with anything and everything when it comes to clothing, with the exception of the suit. To wear a white suit lets the world know that you are a cut above the rest and you want its undivided attention.
I swore that once I reached my healthy for me size, I would invest in one and wear it as often as possible.
Fast forward six years and still no suit.
With the wedding a mere nine months away and my determination to change my health lifestyle, I have a feeling that this suit could be in my wardrobe within the next year.
But what if it was in my wardrobe sooner, say within the next nine months?
No, don't worry, I am not going to crash diet my way to 145 lbs just for a suit.
What if instead of a dress, I wore a white suit to my wedding? I would be around 175 lbs by then and suits are easy enough to alter, for when I lose the final 30 lbs and reach my goal weight.
(This will require your imagination. Replace Angie's head with mine, Benicio Del Toro's head with Jonathan's, take out the awards and replace background with something more wedding like. Hmm, maybe I should come back and photoshop this later!)
