Ok, big things are happening! Sheila and I have gone through all of the wedding stuff at my apartment. It is kind of organized and we definitely have a better idea of what we've got. Thursday I went to Jason's Aunt and Uncle's house. His mom and I were going to do some wedding stuff with his aunt. When we got there all of his cousins and their daughters were there! I couldn't believe everyone that came to help. Thank you!
We got all of the bubbles tied with ribbon bows. We also worked on the leaves for the wedding wish tree. Instead of a guest book I wanted to make a wish tree. All of the guests write a wish for Jason and I then hang it on the tree. (I have since decided to also have a traditional guest book where everyone just signs their name.) Originally, I bought shipping tags to use as leaves. Then I decided to cut them into the shape of a leaf. I was going to just keep the string on the tags but we decided, on Thursday, that ribbon will look nicer. Everyone seemed to have a nice time and Jason's Uncle suggested we do it every week. I am putting some stuff together to work on next week.
The end of February I am going to Disney with my friend Katie. We met during my first internship at Disney World in 2005. Katie is from Jersey like me, and we've kept in touch. We are flying out of Atlantic City. I am hoping to stop and see my bridesmaid Heather and help her find a dress. On the way home to Rochester I am planning to go dress shopping with my cousins Sammi and Emily, my junior bridesmaids.
Speaking of the bridal party.... we have a bridal party of epic size. I still do not think that it's a big deal. We have flowers, gifts, and room for everyone. We are just lucky to have a lot of people that we love and want to be part of our day. We have other jobs as well, not just being bridesmaids and groomsmen. We are a little uneven... too many girls and not enough guys. I have a few ideas though. Jason and I are going to take a look at it tomorrow night.
Tomorrow we are going to the bakery to show them the picture of the cake that we like. (See above) I found it at this blog:http://sixpenceevents.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html.
After the bakery we are meeting with one of the two caterers that our reception venue allows. He is definitely the one we would prefer, so I am hoping it goes well. After the caterer we are headed to a bed and breakfast to check it out for our guests. There are not enough rooms for everyone that will need them and it's a little pricey. So after the Inn we are checking out a hotel that's a little further out but offers a shuttle service to the museum.
This week coming up I am meeting with David, our wedding coordinator, to check in. Things are really moving along. We've got the camera battery charging!
