Progress

November 16th, 2008

I pretty much spent the entire weekend working on wedding projects…and I actually had a fantastic time.  I made a HUGE dent in my invitations (which I realize don’t have to be done for a good 4 months, but since they hae been sitting there half finished for six it felt great).  I even had some time to work on my favorite wedding project…the bridesmaids gifts.  Im trying to do something special for them, and I found the perfect project and have been working on it here and there for the past few months.

The craziest thing is, there is exactly 6 monts to the wedding.  Six months from now we will be dancing the night away having the greatest time of our lives.  I can’t wait!  I am probably more prepared then anyone has ever been at this point in time.  The only thing I still have to book is the limo and the tuxes(although I do have a style picked out).  All other decisions have been made and vendors have been hired.  It’s pretty crazy to me to think that with six full months to the wedding I barely have anything to do…I guess that means I will have to find more projects to keep me busy :)

The one other item that I still need to find is my shoes.  I had some amazing shoes picked out, but when I tried my dress on a few weeks ago I found out they will be much to tall.  If anyone has any idea where I can find cute 1″ white heels please let me know, because I am all out of ideas!

Projects

October 11th, 2008

I have been doing a lot of browsing online for wedding ideas latley and have found a ton of Do It Yourself (DIY) projects.  I had always known that I was going to do my invitations and prorams myself…but I have found a ton of new projects to add to the list.  I figured since we still had so much time, and I have most of the big items completed, these projects would give me something fun to keep me busy.

Between work, school and working on my invitations I hadn’t had a ton of time to actually get many of the fun projects started until this weekend.  I actually finished one of my projects.  I created some “Reserved” signs for the chairs at the reception.  I know that was probably the least important project on my list right now, but it felt so good to complete it and it was a lot of fun to do.

I think what got m in the wedding spirit again was visiting my dress today with Krystle.  She and I went to order her dress and then stopped at my bridal store to try my gown on with some headpieces.  When I put my gown on it fit like a glove.  I was so excited that I didn’t want to take it off when it was time to leave.  We even found some headpieces that we liked…which made it even more fun!

Well it’s been a great day today.  Hopefully I will be able to keep up with the blog more now that the wedding is getting closer and I will be giving it more attention!
