Re: Weekend updates! :)

  • This weekend was an amaazing one for my FI and I!

    WR:  We put our save the dates in the mail!! We chose our ceremony programs and thank you cards. Then we were blessed with his grandmother who has offered to pay for all of the stamps and ALL off the flowers (including the centerpeices). It is such an amazing gift from her.

    NWR: We celebrated my dad's birthday which was fun! And then Saturday night my FI and I went to my FI's work holiday party. We were spoiled there with free valet service, drinks and an amazing meal. Then we got to play a few rounds of bingo for some fun prizes and my FI won! He won an xbox 360 and a Kinect to go with it! (Which I am so excited to play).

    So overall it was a really great weekend. I am sad it is over.
  • WR: I started addressing our STDs, made our first catering appointments, and got a final quote on our flower package!

    NWR: Spent the whole weekend with my honey, watching football and eating comfort food...

  • WR: Also sent out our save the dates!! And we started our registry at BB&B. Finally feel like I'm accomplishing something ... I've been in a weird "not in a wedding planning" mood the last few weeks.
    NWR: Watched the Patriots kick some Tim Tebow ass !!! (no offense to any Tebow fans :P) Also got to get my nails done and spend some time with a good friend.
  • WR: Started planning invites with my friend who is designing & printing them. Signed hotel block contract.

    NWR: Went out to dinner with FI on Friday, which was nice. Yummy Italian! Other than that, I spent the weekend working on papers for school. Not really a break =/

    WR: Went to a bridal show where I narrowed down our cupcake bakery to two choices (FI and I are doing tastings in two weeks), found a place to rent tuxes, and got lots of great ideas for invitations and the honeymoon.

    NWR: Watched the Packers lose and graded papers...not the most exciting.
  • WR: Visited hotels with my FI to make plans for where we'll have our blocks at... I think we have it narrowed down pretty well!  Also bought some supplies to begin making our invites and did LOTS of honeymoon research.  

    NWR: Worked all weekend... but at least its behind me now!

    WR - I worked on some paper flowers. Finished folding invitations and gluing in a colored cardstock panel. Found out my MOH (and only attendant) is pregnant and will be exactly 8 months pregnant at the time of our wedding.

    NWR - Had our first snow of the winter yesterday! I loved our 1/2" of accumulation, until it melted with the rain a few hours later. I also took down our Christmas tree, which was disappointing with snow falling outside.
  • Jealous of these checks you all are getting! lol I'm still waiting on my STDs to arrive...praying they are here by this weekend so I can take them with me to my sister's/MOH's in NH to get them ready to go!

    NWR-took down our Christmas tree and cleaned up Christmas presents still setting around, and vacuumed everything.

    WR: Ordered our toasting flutes and boxes for our candy buffet. Also found what I think we're going to use for invites on Etsy (PDF file), and sent for samples from Cards & Pockets for papers. Also ordered some vellum for my DIY escort cards.

  • WR: Booked our florist this week, I think I found our officiant, and reserved our photobooth. Also the lace I'm adding to my runners came in so I think I will be working on that this week.

    NWR: Worked all weekend....and became an auntie to the cutest puppy ever (well after my dog)....only seen videos of her but I can't wait to meet her in person.
