Something Interesting...

So I was browsing online the other night looking for wedding deals, and came across these two things:

A memorial Frame

and

A memorial Candle.

We aren't sure yet if we are going to do both or one or the other, but know that someway we want to incorporate those who are no longer with us in person, but still very special in our lives into the wedding. It is something that we also have to work with Dwight (the pastor) to figure out the ligistics of doing so. We'll see what one we choose to use, or both...

Just thought it was something interesting, and thought I would share it with all of you!! :)

The inside

I have found more pictures of the Hall where the reception will be held. These are from a friend's of mine wedding that I stole from her MySpace page ;) It is during the decorating stages, but gives an idea of what the inside will look like. We aren't sure on table arrangement so you can ignore the way they have them here.

Dress on the Runway!!

I found this, and hopefully it will post. Earlier I gave a sneak peek of the dress, well now there is a runway video of it that I found, and thought I'd share with everyone.

Less than HALF WAY THERE!

So I of course have a cute little ticker that is my signature for my message board posts of a countdown to the wedding. It tells how many months and then in () how many days. Today there is 180 days...not bad...which is equal to....5 months!!-> HOLY COW!! Where has the time gone?! Honestly? I saw that and got a lump in my throat and sick feeling, because of how close it is. I mean we are really prepared and ready, esp. for that honeymoon afterwards (lol), but wow!!! It's just amazing. I guess I better get my butt etching some vases, otherwise I'm gonna be one crazy lady come closer to the wedding!

Jewelry!!!

So I had my lia sophia party a couple weeks ago, and got the jewelry on Wednesday. The whole reason for me having the party was to get my bridal jewelry (or at least necklace) for free or $20. I opted to pay the $20 and use my credit for other jewelry, but that is neither here nor there. Because I'm very anal about appearances, and matching I of course had to try it on with my dress. OF COURSE!! ;) Today I went down to Pat and Terry's and got my dress out, put everything on (minus the veils) and I must say...WOW I'M ONE HOT LADY!!:p I love the necklace with the dress. The earings, well they work, but I have my eye on ones that match the necklace a little better. So want to see what necklace I'm talking about???!!!

Here you go....


The necklace and earings are what I have. SOOOOO gorgeous in real life!!!! I love it! :)

Honeyfund

Well Nick and I have been trying to start our registries, but haven't gotten very far. (We're trying to stay on task with theknot.com checklist) But we have one semi completed so far! We came across the idea by accident, then did research and found the one that best suites our needs. What is it you ask? A honeymoon registry!! We think it's really cool, because we already have a lot of life's essentials, and so it offers people the option of still buying a gift for us that we will surely use rather than simply giving money. We'll see how it works out in the end (if others thought it was as cool as we do) :)

Bridesmaid Dresses

Yay! So we ordered the bridesmaid dresses! What a mini fiasco that was! We were going to go through a local bridal shop, but I found a place cheaper online to order them from that offered free shipping to EACH BRIDESMAID!! I couldn't refuse! SO..we had to get the girls measured. I got their measurements and was trying to figure out what size to order off the size chart, and was utterly confused!!! It isn't that I am incapable of reading a size chart, just the measurements didn't always match up. So I called up the company and they helped me, but the sizes they gave seemed a little big, so then messaged Sue and she gave me her opinion, but still it seemed strange. So I ended up calling the local shop, giving the measurements, and asking what sizes they would have ordered (of course pretending that I was still going to use them to order the dresses from) and they matched what the company said!! Go figure, lol. So I called up the company and ordered the dresses!! The girls should be getting them around the end of Feb/beginning of March!! YAY!!!!
