Our Crazy Wedding Plans So Far

From the time we engaged it has been nonstop planning. Before school was out for the summer I had met with every photographer in Killen, Florence, and Rogersville, booked a florist, caterer, photographer and videographer and found a wedding dress all by the end of March (a month and a half after we got engaged.) With my hectic school and work schedule the wedding planning was put on halt until the summer but thankfully I had put a huge dent in the planning process. Since school has let our we are in full wedding mode. We are trying to get the majority of things done before I begin student teaching in the fall. I recently have order my cake and Chris cake from a girl in our area who has done many cakes for friends and family members. We are continuing to look for favors, chairs, tables, and a sand ceremony kit. We also are busy looking through endless amounts of pictures of Chris and I growing up as well as beginning to get addresses for invitations. The major disagreement we have is our song list. We have extremely different tastes in music. However, we are managing to agree and are beginning to see a song list form slowly but surely. Tomorrow we will making another trip to David's Bridal to finish having my bridesmaids fitted for their dresses as well as having my wedding dress altered. My flower girl is also coming with us. I am so excited to get her into the dresses and be there with us. I know she is going to have a blast! I also am looking forward to seeing my wedding dress for the first time in three months! I feel like it has been forever! It should be an eventful day with 4 of my 8 bridesmaids, my mother, grandmother, future mother in law, flower girl and her mother all coming with us. Even though the planning is extremely stressful it is a great feeling to be with the majority of my wedding party trying on dresses and looking at my wedding dress. I can not wait!

Today was also the 27th wedding anniversary of my mommy and daddy! I just want to wish them a happy anniversary! I am so lucky to have such amazing parents who love and care about me the way they do me and my sister. I bet they never imagined 27 years ago they would be in the midst of planning their oldest daughters wedding. Thanks for all you guys are doing for me and Chris to make our day so special. I love you both and I couldn't ask for better parents!!
