Wedding related stuff
Date: March 9, 2013
Location: Chandler, AZ. The reception is going to be in my mom's backyard and the ceremony is at a local park.
Colors: Brown and blue with some purple
Favorite wedding check so far: Everything! I am overly analytical about everything so I did way more research than necessary on everything we've picked so far. I love my dress (tried on at least 40 dresses), I love our photographer, and I am extremely excited for the honeymoon (though we haven't booked a hotel yet).
