Welcome to our wedding blog!!
We are so excited about our big day that we wanted to some how keep you all involved. After all, you have each helped us along the way at one point or another.
Oh my goodness!!!! Hard to believe the little rascal is 2 already. I will admit most boxers are complete puppies until they are 3, we were extremely lucky to have such a laid back dog. When we first brought him home I think both Tony and I were preparing for a long couple years of a misbehaving dog. We couldn't have been more wrong.
If you don't know what I'm referring to, it's a sad day...fast forward to marker 3:50 and try not to shake it.
I've been told by my fiance that I need to add more pictures. Apparently just words are boring.
So I'm going to post a couple pictures that I've been meaning to post for some time now. Enjoy my loves!
This would be my necklace I got from my Grandma Iris when I was 16. This was the number one thing I kept in mind when looking for a dress. My dress had to go with my necklace, no matter what.
For my birthday and wedding gift from my mom and dad I got a bracelet and a pair of earrings to match my necklace. Two things that I will cherish forever right along side my necklace.
Tony's wedding band...still weird...
This is the beginning of the "mess" at our house. I brought all the flowers home from mom and dads this past weekend. I shouldn't say all. We still have the two largest flower arrangements, my bouquet and a few other bouquets that aren't completely finished yet at their house. As of right now until I move some things around everything is sitting on the kitchen table. I'm debating on if I should overtake Marilyn's room even more or putting them all in the basement. I'm not a fan of having it all on the top level and constantly having that door shut so I'd rather have them downstairs. I just worry that if they are down there they will get all dusty. We may have to move them to the in-laws house in River Falls. We'll see.
So I went home this weekend to spend some time with my mom on mother's day. While I was there I tried on the two pairs of shoes my mom had picked out. I loved the sparkly ones, of course. I liked the other ones two but luckily my small and odd shaped feet made the decision for me. Even though the two shoes were the same size and same brand they both fit me different. The goldish/pearlish ones did not fit me. Not even close. So that just made me fall in love even more with the sparkles :)
Surprised? No.
However, today as I was doing a little weddingbee reading I came across this site for shoes. Being that I already have some I don't know why I clicked this site. But I did. And found these shoe clips.
Again, are any of you surprised? Didn't think so.
You can thank my mother for my thought process on this one. Why pay that much money for SHOE CLIPS when you could make them. Plus I already have all the supplies. :) So, what do I do? I continue my research on the actual how-to. Turns out the only thing I need are the actual clips. And hey, look I found a site that carries those. Looks like I found my weekend project :) Tony's out of town yet again so this will keep me busy.
I received a very *cough* polite email this morning stating that I suck at updating my blog. LOL it was of course sent out of love. I hope.
Well since I updated last we haven't done a whole lot of wedding stuff. We are at a bit of a lull I think. By choice. Because we do have things to get done. A lot of things actually. I have daily post-notes of things to get done. Wanna see? Sure you do...This is what my desk looks like on a daily basis.
Fun huh? Yea, not so much. Notice how I have a lot of repeats on these lists.
I am proud to say that we have started in the search for a photographer. We've set up a couple meetings with a few of those so hopefully we'll get that done. I have also set up our first meeting with the church to begin that process. That should be fun :)
A couple weeks ago we bought Tony's wedding band. Now that was a weird moment. Seeing him with a ring on his finger was an eye opener. This is really happening. eeek! We also looked at wedding bands for myself. I had originally said I didn't' want a band-plus my ring didn't have a match for obvious reasons. But I've noticed a lot lately how complete it looks when there is a band attached. Luckily they do make a few rings that go with my ring without covering up the side diamonds. :) I'm excited!
What else...what else...
Oh! I could possibly have my wedding shoes! The ceremony ones at least :) My mom was out shopping the other day and found two pairs of shoes that could possibly work. Which one do I automatically go to? SPARKLE! When I'm home this weekend I'll be sure to try them on. That means I get to try my dress on again!!
