· Caleb and I went home this weekend to Wis Dells and tried to figure out more details for the wedding. Here is where we got:
o The invitations to my WI wedding shower will be sent by NEXT Friday. I love them so much. Bestie Hannah and I are masterminds.
o Invitations for the wedding will be going through drafts within the next couple weeks and sent out BY September 7th, 2012. This is a big deal. We have the design and layout finished, just all the pieces need to come together.
o Mom and I finished the “vision board” so that all the vendors really get a feel for what our wedding looks like in our heads. We went through many, many magazines to get the perfect combination
o I know what my makeup and hair needs to look like. My hair is growing but not fast enough… I am very nervous.
§ My cousin is doing all the hair for the girls and I cannot wait because she is like the nicest person and I know will do a perfect job.
o We know what 1/3 of the décor will look like in the church and 2/3 of the décor in the reception hall
· All the bridesmaids now have their dresses. HOORAY! All but two are perfect for the people and the other two dresses were a mistake on the bridal store so we are ALL good. I am pumped for them to all stand next to me. They look so presh individually, peeps. I love my bmaids.
· I ordered the material for the flower girl dresses last week and it should be in by next weekend so I am pumped to pick that up and drop that off to my Kathy mom in a few weeks in IA.
· I got a “paper boy” hat for Miles, the ring bearer, to wear down the aisle. It is SO great. Blue and white striped, couldn’t be more perfect.
· My wedding band is done and I have it in my possession. It is the most unique thing I have ever seen eyes on. Personal fluff of feathers: I did a great job designing it. Caleb and I LOVE it.
· I looked on www.theknot.com and saw ALL the things I need to get done still. I am really needing to set time aside each day to plan things out.
o First on the list: wedding music to musicians and singers. Piece of cake, right?
Until next week.... find me skeleton keys, please.
Wow... this is real! (REAL EXCITING!!)
ReplyDeleteThe more details you spill, the more my anticipation grows! I cannot wait until October!
(well, except that it means my baby will be 4 years old..)
Oh little sister, we went to an auction tonight, and there was a HUGE tin full of skeleton keys. I said to Nick, "we HAVE to get that for Laura!" BUTTTTTTTTTT... that darn thing went for like 60 BUCKS! I was so mad! Everything else was going for just a couple bucks. Sonuva...
ReplyDeleteI love that it is getting so close--though that makes stress levels go a little higher for you! So excited! I love the thought of having you as an official sister so soon. :) I don't go to many good places for keys, but I'm still keeping my eyes open!
