Wedding Planning Update

Alright so I haven't had much to post the last couple weeks about our wedding plans but I know some people are curious about what we have gotten done, so I thought I would give everyone a quick update! For those of you who don't know, the ceremony and reception will take place in my parents backyard on September 27th 2012. We have already reserved our tables, chairs and table linens, but the yard work on the yard has only just began. (For those of you who love helping in gardens just for the sake of helping out, my parents will take any volunteers. Most of the work is done on Saturdays and Sundays when my dad doesn't have to work.) Anyway, I have been working with my cousin and the company she works for with my catering. It will be a desert bar, so make sure you eat dinner before coming to the reception! We have picked a cake company and invitation company to work through, though we havent made the invites yet, or picked out the actual cake. My good friend Brittani Bailey is going to be doing our flowers, and my other good friend Jeanine Ly is going to be doing our photography. We actually just got our engagement pictures taken yesterday downtown and at Memory Grove Park, and are now just waiting to see how they all turned out. I can't wait to see them! Once I get the pictures I will definately be posting them here, so come back in the next week or two if you want to see how they turned out! I do have my wedding dress, slip, and veil already. My dress fitting is coming up on the 3rd of June. I want to make sure I look good in it so I have started a new healthy food plan and started hitting the gym to make sure I'm looking healthy when the big day comes. Sorry to all of you who want pictures of the dress, you will have to message me and have me send you pictures if you want a sneak peak. I won't be posting any dress pictures or bridals here until after the wedding, since I don't want Bob to see. I have all the bridesmaid dresses as well, and the flower girl dresses too (see last post for pics). We are still in the process of figuring out whether we want a band, DJ or just an ipod hook up for music... We should know soon. We also don't have a officiant yet. We asked Bob's brother if he would be able to do it, but he looked into what he would need to get a license, and won't be able to. Now we are just trying to decide who else we would want to marry us. We are also in the process of figuring out what we want to do for a honeymoon. We are still torn between spending a couple weeks exploring Orlando, or going on a Carribean cruise. I want to make sure everything is booked earlier rather than later, so hopefully we will know what we are doing soon, but right now we are having a hard time settling on a budget. I think that's all we have so far, but I will try to make sure as new updates come in, I will put it up here for everyone.
