With the start of the New Year Michael and I have really started to 'buckle' down with the wedding preparations. Although we had most of the things done last year, there is still quite a bit to do to get things running smoothly. This Christmas season we sent out the save-the-date cards (well magnets) to family and friends. Michael and I had them done up on Magnetstreet.com, and they turned out wonderful. We were so happy with how beautiful they turned out, and I think the family liked them too.
After the New Year we've finalized the flowers, spoke with the videographer (Bezick), and the photographer (Silvana) and set up times to do the engagement shoot, and the story of us video. I am so excited about these two up coming events, and also so nervous. In regards to the story of us I'm a little nervous to say on camera our story, and then have the whole wedding hear it :S . With the engagement shoot, the only thing that I'm a little nervous about is how everything will work. I've never really worked with a professional photographer before, and I just want everything to do smoothly. Michael and I would really love for the photo's to be taken at a spot that is very precious and memorable to us, the bed and breakfast we go to. We've been going their for about five years now, a few times a year, and the people have become like family to us. The only thing is that they've decided to sell, and I'm not sure that they will still have the place in time for the shoot.
I've got the start of the wedding day all booked and ready to go. I've booked the salon :) which is Michaels body hair and mind. The girls there are absolutely amazing, and I'm just so excited to have everyone there on the day of. It's definetely going to be an early morning considering there is going to be twelve us there, but I'm looking forward to it. I have my salon bridal package all picked out (with massage) :), and on the day of they'll have breakfast prepared for us. I'm hoping that my girls love it just as much as I do.
I've gotten all my wedding jewelery done. I met this beautiful designer named Deniz a few months ago and she's designed pieces to go with both of my dresses. I'm not giving anymore details on this one ;).
The flowers are booked. and everything completely finalized. We've gotten beautiful center pieces that are filled with roses and orchids. I would love to go into detail about how it looks, but I think that I want to leave that one also for the big day.
We've booked the wedding designer and she's just amazing. She works out of the hall which is great...and I think that I've mentioned this before.
We're currently interviewing people for our Limo as we have a very specific idea as to what we want. Also, we're meeting with the people who will provide the sound equipment for the hall. They'll provide the projector and what not.
We've decided on the bonboniere's, but I don't have to start working on those for another little bit.
Things are just going so wonderfully, and I'm just so excited :). I know that there is still a bit of time, but it sure is flying.
Well I will update once we start working on more.
OH I forgot we found our invitations. We were deciding whether to go with a company or to go with an online company. We did quite a bit of price comparisons, and we found an online company that we absolutely love. So we've got our invitations :). We're going to be getting those done asap, and then we're almost all set to go :).
