This is it, less than 2 weeks to go. We've been working on our seating arrangement, worst part of planning! We're also on wedding "diet" and exercise plan, also not my favorite part.
However as the wedding gets closer we've abandoned certain aspects of the planning/wedding, they seem unimportant compared to other things. I've been working on my vows which is nerve racking! Mitchell finished his ages ago, not a procrastinator that one.
See everyone soon!

I Can See The Finish Line
This is it, less than a month to go. Everything is in place, we're just tying up loose ends and putting together the final details.
I am finishing up our cake toppers, which of course I put off until the last minute, but so far I think they look pretty good.
I've had my final dress fitting, the dress is awesome. I'm in the process of shopping for hair adornments, specifically a comb or clip for after the veil comes off. If you know anywhere I should look please let me know.
Other than that we just need to write our vows and learn to dance, but it may be too late for that.

Time is Flying
Ahhhh, less than 2 months til W-Day! I can't believe its almost here! Where did the time go?
Well the good news is that we're pretty much on top of things. All of our vendors are booked (just put a deposit on the cake), and we're compiling our song lists and photo "must haves" list. Now its on to the vows, bar and rehearsal dinner.
The RSVP's have been rolling in, so kudos to those of you who have sent yours, to those of you who haven't please make sure you do! Lol, otherwise you'll have to sit outside, just kidding....maybe. I can't wait to start our seating arrangements, dorky, but true.
Well I better get to work on ordering things and making my cake topper.

Its the little things
This was a big wedding week for us. I had ordered a lot of things online for the wedding, and they all arrived! We now have our guest books, all the pieces for our favors, I picked up my veil, had my hair trial, and started receiving RSVPs. Our last batch of invitations should go out this weekend (we had to do phases, very labor intensive).
Now its time to put together favors (Alli, lol). I need to finish the cake toppers. Projects, projects, projects. It's all the little touches that are going to make this wedding "us" and special. Just have to remember that as I work on them. Good/Bad news is Mitchell will be out of town for 2 weeks, which is sad and lonely for me, but good time to get these done.

Finish Line
Sorry it has been so long since I last posted, the holidays were crazy and now we're in high gear with wedding planning.
We're under the 80 day mark now and things are starting to get hectic. The invitations are done and ready to be sent out. We're working on the favors, programs and little details now. The bridesmaids all have their shoes and we're ordering jewelry, I'm ordering my jewelry soon Mitchell and I have picked out wedding bands. Things are coming together.
I can't wait for March 31st, then we get to have a party and go on a cruise.

Long over due update
I am a negligent blogger. I apologize.
But on to business. I have finally update my wedding website, not by much, just our photo link and bridal party. I just ordered our wedding invites, how stressful. The pressure to pick what people will like and stay true to what you like is crazy. I did end up picking the one I liked best (Mitchell too), with the encouragement and help from Melissa, THANK YOU! And Lauren, Rachel and my mom helped with the opinion process too, thanks ladies. I should get the digital proof soon, then the actuals and out they go.
Over the Thanksgiving Holiday we got the boys fitted for tuxes and ordered them. I found flower girl dresses with help from Mom. Also we are knee deep in mason jars and still collecting. We chose our menu, the tasting was excellent. We got together with Chat, our florist and friend, and put together mock centerpieces. And we've chosen dates for pre-wedding events (bachelorete party and 2 showers...busy girls).
Those are the highlights for now, and here's to hoping I start updating more regularly.

Moving right along
I booked our honeymoon!! We are going on a 7 night cruise in the Western Caribbean. I am so excited! This will be our first trip to the Caribbean and one of ports is Belize, which is somewhere Mitchell has wanted to go for a while now. Yay!
Next up on the planning front, we have 2 more bakeries to try out and our tasting for the menu coming up, all fun stuff. Now we are figuring out favors and invites, hopefully plan to get stuff ordered by December. Oh and the boy's tuxes! They go in for fittings and the picking of styles next week. Thank goodness for having all of the big stuff decided, now its just the details.
