Wow! How time flies. I can not believe it is already the middle of May. I have been so bad at updating my blog and I apologize to those of you who read this. I have been so incredibly busy with work it is unbelievable. I can see now why so many women opt for a wedding planner, when work gets hectic...wedding planning takes a back seat and if you do not have a lot of time to plan...it doesn't happen. Thank god we started planning this over a year ago and we have had time to do everything.
So...an update. We have now purchased our favor containers which I couldn't be happier with. They look exactly like mini old fashioned candy jars. They have stainless steel lids that seal so they will be perfect for dried tea. We have also decided on a lavender mint mix tea that Dave and I enjoy after a hard day at the office.
We spent 1 1/2 hours at Michaels the other night picking out ribbon for our favors and our programs and paper for our tissue packages, and the inserts for our invitations. I am really happy with all the colours we have chosen. The tissue packages and the programs will bring a range of blue into the ceremony since most of the colours right now are brown and ivory/creams/whites.
We have set up times with our photographer and our videographer for our engagement photo session and to do the filiming of our Love Story for our video! I can't wait to sit down with them and come up with some really neat ideas to showcase our personalities and our love and commitment for each other. We haven't had a chance to sit down and decide on locations for these but we might do filming around the place we met...our high school!
One more week until I go for my first gown fitting! I can't wait to put my dress on again. I love the way the material feels ad the weight of the dress. I love the way the train sits and of course the way it makes me feel like the most beautiful bride ever!
We only have 107 days left! Before we know it...we will be married!
