One Ring....or maybe two...plus some major changes

So Michael and I have bought our rings :), with the help of a very dear friend of mine (*cough cough Jen cough*).
We had been looking around for a little bit trying to find something that we both really liked. We were contemplating having something custom made. We both had in mind what we wanted however the issue arose that I wanted something to go with my engagement ring. I had seen one at Spence that was in a flower design that I liked, but that would mean having to purchase another engagement. Michael was fine that, but I wasn't. I love my engagement ring, and it's Tiffany's...why would I not love wearing it hehe.

Anyway, Jen and her family know a jeweler in Square One, and that's where we went. I had found this beautiful diamond band which I loved for my wedding ring. However I didn't like how one diamond band looked with my engagement ring, and decided that two looked better....so now I've got two rings. I'm just so excited about it. We haven't picked them up yet as they're being sized, but the anticipation is certainly there. Also because of Jen and her family they gave us such a great deal, they've assumed the cost for all the engraving. I'm trying to think of something unique to have done for Michael, something that is special to the both of us. I have the perfect line in my head, I'm just not sure if I want to put it on the wedding band. It's something that is special to the both of us, but a part of me thinks that maybe I should stick to the traditional stuff...but then again we're not really traditional.

Michael's wedding band looks amazing. He picked something bigger, with more weight to it. It's white gold, and it's got this etched design in it. He's also having black enamel through the design so that way it would really pop. We've been talking about getting a ring design tattoo for him. He's not big into jewelery and it's something that he would like to do. I'm not too sure about it, but if it's what he wants then I think it's sweet.

The gifts for the groomsman are done, and I'm so excited I think they'll love it. Michael had an idea as to what it was that he was going to give, and we found it. They're beautiful, and I'll hope they love it.

So Michael and I made a major decision the other day, and we've decided to change our DJ. The company we were originally going to go with are perfectly fine, however we ended up finding another company that just suited our needs better. We went to see BB Blanc a couple of weeks ago to get the projection equipment for our photographer. While we were there we learned that they had become MCC's preferred DJ's and sound guys as of November of last year (after we signed up). They basically have all their equipment in the ceilings, and everything is set up for them. Michael and I heard there stuff, and we absolutely loved it, and for the price they gave us we're definitely getting more for the money. We've upgraded our lighting, sound, we'll have two giant screens for viewing, and we're just so excited. The guy we met with, James, was just extremely nice, and we're happy about our change.

So all the big things are finalized, and we've got all the dates and times set (IE. Rehearsal Dinner), the only things now are the little things. We're knocking those off one by one, and we've not got the containers of pepper sauce that we'll be using on the table. I found these cut little glass jars with lids, and I thought they would be perfect. It was something that I really wanted for my family since they all pretty much like spicy food, and this way even if the food isn't hot enough for them, they can add the amount that they would like. My mom is going to be making the pepper sauce, so I think that it'll be a nice touch.

I think that is it for now...I shall keep you updated.
