It is the WEEK OF!!!

Alright so it is the week of the wedding!! Saturday is the BIG DAY!!! I must say I am pretty excited! I think I have everything taken care of...I hope! If not, oh well! All that really matters at the end of the day is that I am finally married to the most loving, caring, goofy, crazy, guy in the whole world! YaY for Saturday! I will try to update during this week, however it is a crazy crazy week! Lot’s so do to make myself B.E.A.Utiful! lol

Ladies and Gentlemen it is time for another update!!!

I have gotten a lot accomplished in the past 48 hours!!! I was hoping to get the invitations back on Monday; however that was not the case!!! So, Monday night I made myself a list of all the things I still needed, Tuesday I woke up and hit the town to get my list checked off!! My mom has been diligently working to get the dresses finished, Amanda’s dress was the first she did! We went to Manda’s work to make sure it was the correct size, and it was she is going to look super hott!! After we left from Manda’s work we headed to Joann’s Fabric store to find ribbon for the sash on the bridesmaids’ dresses and zippers, and also we had to get some stuff for our guest book, which is going to be the BOMB!! After the fabric store we headed to The Business Card Store, they did our invitations and did an awesome job with my awe-inspiring design, o yea that’s right I designed my own invitations who knew I was so talented! After the Business Card Store we headed over to Hair West Salon, a really close family friend owns it and she has been doing hair for years and she even use to do movie stars hair, I am thinking about letting her do my hair so we talked about a trial appointment and what not all I need to do is find a style I love!! Following Hair West we had to stop by the Tux shop and give them the measurements for Jeff’s brother Tyler and we got to check out the Tangerine vest and tie for the Dad’s and Jeff, WOW they are going to look smokin’, after that we hit up the Dollar Tree and Michael’s! I found some toasting glasses at the dollar store and some rocks for the centerpieces at Michael’s I found a crap ton of ribbon which I was thinking about using for the cake and cake stand, now I’m not sure lol!! After those two stores we headed to the Mall, there is a little dress shop just outside JcPenny’s and we rented a slip for under my dress!! Then we went to Wal-Mart! By this time I was super tired and Wal-Mart is so big and full of annoying people! AAAHHH But we got a lot of stuff we needed such as a knife and server, frosting, kisses for the favors, tulle for the arch, some baskets for the flowers girls, and then I found some super super cute ribbon that of course was all three of the colors! I used it on the flower girl baskets and it looks adorable. But now I am facing a slight dilemma I bought all the ribbon at Michael’s for the cake, but I love the ribbon I found at Wal-Mart and I just am not sure which to use!! Bummer, lol I am sure I will decide but right now it is a toss up! After we finished up at Wal-Mart we still hadn’t found the right size or color zippers for the dresses so we decided to head over to ACE and they didn’t have any either so back to Joann’s we went and we had to settle for zippers that were to long and not exactly the correct color, but whatever my mother is AMAZING and can make anything work!! After our long day we got home around 6pm we headed out to feed and then I came in and stuffed and addressed about 300 invitations, I was up to about 2am, but I got them all finished! The next morning I double checked my work and headed to the mail box where I put in 150 invitations!! I got home and went back to work separating the remaining invitations to hand out!! After finishing that task I went to work on the remaining favors, which are all finished WAHOO!!! Today I went to work on painting the baskets, then decorated them with ribbon and they look super cute, then I made my toasting glasses which also turned out super cute! Now all that is left is the ring bearer pillow, which my mom said she would do! Speaking of my mommy she has been working super hard on the dresses for about a week now all three dresses are sewn one has a zipper and the other two will most likely be finished tonight or tomorrow, then all she has left is her dress and the pillow o and to do a little adjustment to my dress!! All in all I think everything is just coming right together nicely!! Only three more weeks and it’s all over with!! YIPPY! I am excited to get married, finally, and have all this madness behind me!! So now that everyone is all caught up, I am going back to working on more wedding stuff!!! Till next time :)

Invitations!?!?!

So....I have been FREAKING out due to the fact that we are suppose to be getting married in 1 month and I just put the order in for our invites...yesterday!! Wow I am such a slacker! O well they said it takes about 5 business days so I will be mailing invitations next week, I hope!!

Engagements!!!

Woooo Whooo!!! We got our engagements back!! They are absolutely amazing!! We had them done by Abbey Kyhl of akstudiodesign.com!! AMAZING, she was great! So anyways we are busily planning out different styles for our announcements and are super excited to be movin’ along!! I will post a few pics so you can have a little taste!! :)

Successful Weekend!

Jeff and I had a super duper successful weekend! My dress arrived on Wednesday, I got my nails done Thursday, Friday we went shopping for clothes for our engagements, and then Saturday we had engagements done at 8 am, I had to get up at 5 am to get ready aaahhh, after engagements we taste tested food, got Jeff measured for is tux, got a quote for flowers, tried to go get prices at the rental places they were closed, then we registered at bed, bath, and beyond!! It was a super successful day, and we got so much accomplished, I am looking forward to this week and getting tons more accomplished!! Woo Whoo Wedding here we come!!!

As of today...

As of today, February 2nd 2010, the wedding planning process is a sluggish one! To date, I have picked out and ordered my dress and it should be here this week, but it needs some work to make it just how I want it (A lot of work actually, which I so kindly delegated my mommy to do, oh and she is making my bridesmaid dresses also)!! We have reserved the cultural hall in one of our local church for the reception and tomorrow I am going to go put the down payment down on the ceremony location! On Saturday we are getting our engagement pictures taken!! Woo Whoo! Jeff and I are also planning on hitting a few floral shops and hopefully getting the flowers squared away, then we are considering gift registry, a dreaded process I hear! We are super excited and going absolutely mad, all at the same time, because we had so long to plan this wedding, but waited to the very last minute to actually do something! There is so much to do and so little time to do it all in, but I have faith we are going to pull it off and have one heck of a wedding! As soon as there is more to tell I will be back to post an update!

We started a blog!?!

After pressure from friends, we have decided to start a blog! I can't be to certain that it will be updated often, but this is a great way for people to know how the wedding planning process is coming along! I hope you enjoy are crazy life as much as we do! Much love
