Offbeat Weddings

Yay! Checked some stuff off!

We went and picked out what the tuxes would look like today! All of the tuxes are going to be black.  My fiance's vest and tie will be royal blue with a royal blue tie, and the groomsmen will wear royal blue vest with orange ties!  They looked so good!

Also, finally got most of the addresses written down, so the bridal shower list is together at least, and almost ready to address invites! 

Oddly enough, the only things I was stressed about was the bachelorette party and bridal shower, because I don't have to do anything for them.  (I have somehow managed to be working 35 hours a week, be student teaching around 40 hours a week all last quarter, and have classes all this quarter, and had gotten everything else done but the favors.)   I am not a control freak, but I do like to make sure I know exactly when things are planned and what is planned, so it makes me nervous not to know all of what is going on, and being told over and over that people need lists! Agh! Luckily I got the addresses to my fiance's mom for the bridal shower, so now I am trying to relax and focus on school stuff so I can find a job in my field, graduate in June, and get married in August!

Anywho, just had to share in the tux excitement! I am just so excited! Now, I just need to call the seamstress to set up some stuff for my dress since I won't get it back until the end of June, and we have to order favors, since my Maid of Honor and I are painting them ourselves.

I hope you all are having a great week so far! Now, back to studying!

  • Congrats, sounds like great checks! 

    With tuxes, FI set up a date a month before the date the tuxedo store told us they had to get measured by for all of the guys to meet him there. It worked out perfect, because 4 guys couldn't make it, but then they felt like they needed to hurry to get fitted since they missed the day that everyone went. Otherwise, it gets crazy trying to get men to not procrastinate, FI was in a wedding last fall where he didn't get tux info from the groomsman until a week before the wedding! 
  • I am a control freak too! hehehe  I try not to be.  I just want things accomplished .

    My girls are asking me for a guest list for the wedding so that they can plan a shower & bachelorette party.  At this point I sincerely doubt they will pull off surprising me like they think they can LOL
