It is an extremely cold day here today in Calgary...-40 to be exact (with wind chill). We just wanted to let everyone know we have found someone to marry us...a big relief on both our parts as we hadn't been able to find anyone and the wedding is getting closer by the minute. We have found a woman by the name of Soleiha Mahrcell to officiate our ceremony. It is a bit of a long story in the way we found her, but we believe she will be able to provide the ceremony Dave and I hope for. She works closely with Nomi Whalen (Ed Whalen's widow) and as Nomi was unavailable to perform our marriage ceremony, Soleiha will. She has sent us a ton of information and a questionnaire to better know Dave and I which I think is really cool. She has asked questions about how we first met, how Dave proposed and what we most love about each other. I personally am really excited about it!
Dave and I picked up our center piece vases yesterday from IKEA, 44 of them to be exact so that is a big check mark off our list of things to do. We met with our florist last Tuesday to come up with an idea using the vase. Jillian (florist) is amazing and has come up with some really ingenious ideas for the flowers in our wedding.
Our invitations have arrived and so now, as Kate and Candice are saying, they get to sit in our closet in their boxes and collect dust until we send them out next summer. We are really excited about them, they look 100 times better than I could have ever imagined and fit so well with everything we have been doing so far.
Other than that, everything is moving along as planned. Dave and I are going to register on Saturday at the Bay...who would have thought you have to book a week in advance to go and register for gifts?
