April 2013 Weddings

FRIDAY

Happy Friday everyone! What are we all up to this weekend?

Today work (boo) then food truck rally at FI's job! Gotta get him and his sister yummies. He'll get home late (1-2 am) so it'll be the puppy and me.

Saturday is my Bridal Shower (yay!). My mom and FMIL are hosting on behalf of my MOH. I'll post pics as soon as I can. We're also celebrating my puppy's first birthday.

Sunday is my first Sunday not working at my part time (I don't count last Sunday because I would have had that day off anyways). FI has off so we will probably just relax and spend the day playing video games or something. Then later on we're having some friends over for St Patty's day, including our 2 photographers (his sister and one of my best guy friends), our wedding planner (his other sister) and videographers (his other sister [he has 4] and her bf) so they can discuss what needs to be discussed.

Re: FRIDAY

  • Yay for your bridal shower!

    Lets see tonight I am working my 2nd job booo

    Tomorrow-Cake Tasting!! Cant wait

    Sunday-Working 2nd job during the day also that is 1 yr ago when we got engaged awww
  • Today, trade show for work the spending time with FI and our son. Tomorrow sin goes to grandmas and I have my bachelorette party and he has his bachelor. Sunday, recovery!!
  • WR: Today I will hopefully FINALLY get my butt over to Michael's to pick up some silk flowers and garlands for the ceremony arch.  It would be nice to check that off and call it a day.  Other than that, I think this is the calm before the storm, so I'm going to try to relax a little.

    NWR: small business stuff tomorrow morning, nothing scheduled for Sunday but probably taking the dog to the park.

    Pretty mellow for now...happy Friday!
  • I'm glad it's Friday today, even though we don't have any important plans for the weekend. We still have to get rings, so we will possibly get that done over the weekend.
  • It's been a long week so I'm excited for Friday. Mostly, I want to sleep!

    WR: FI needs to work on his groomsman gifts hardcore, so he'll be doing that. I may get a start on making programs while he's sanding stuff, because that makes me sneeze when I try to help. I'd also like to maybe go shopping for some honeymoon stuff if we can. We'll see. Then we were supposed to go dance in our reception hall, just to get a feel for the size of the dance floor, on Sunday, but that was when we were going to NJ for the weekend so I could do my dance lesson with my dad. However, my dad is still super sick and I don't want to catch it so we're not going to be doing that. I'm debating whether it's worth the commute to go do the dance on Sunday anyway (as it's pretty much our last chance) or to just skip it.

    NWR: SLEEP! PLEASE SLEEP! I'm so deprived. Laundry. Then hopefully just some nice relaxing and enjoying. Maybe going out for a nice St. Paddy's day dinner or making some soda bread...if I have energy.

    Enjoy your bridal shower, phoenix!

    I am yet again working at the mountain this weekend. Friday night, Saturday all day/night, and Sunday day/afternoon. I won't probably won't get any quality time with FI until Monday, since he's working Sunday. I can't wait until the snow melts and the mountain closes. They're trying to keep it open to the 24th, but my last scheduled day is the 20th, and then I'm done. I need my weekends back for wedding planning!

    I ordered my flowers for the centerpieces from Sam's club today: green and white roses, purple tulips, picasso mini callas, and purple carnations. That's a big check, but the biggest check will be arranging the centerpieces the day before the wedding!

    FI have our first dance lesson Monday night. I bought a Groupon a while ago and we just never got around to it, but now's the time. I'm not sure how many lessons we'll be able to get in (I think we get two of three different types, so six total), but I think just a few lessons will help--plus it'll be fun!

    Oh, also--we found out this week that my ring can't be engraved (at least where we sent it out to) because it's not round on the outside--it's a squared back ring. Boo. We emailed the guy that made the ring and asked if he knew of a place we could get it engraved, but otherwise--no engraving for me.
  • Yay! It's friday!

    phoenix- have a great shower!

    FI has been pulling crazy hours at work and is working all weekend as well. This weekend I hope to finish my thank you cards and get the labels done for the favors. I also have to start packing up all of our decorations for the venue and get everything labeled. I'm also going to have a little bit of me time, ths weekend.  My sister purchased a spa gift certificate for me for a facial and she is also going to be cutting and coloring my hair as well. So definitely looking forward to that.

    I also have some tiny last minute crafty things that need to get done and again, a messy house that needs some serious TLC.

  • I am so happy it is Friday. I am just starting to feel better and could use some extra sleep.

    Tonight FI leaves for up north for his bachelor party. I need to go shopping and get some stuff because I am taking my boudoir photos tomorrow morning. This is probably going to be the most awkward photoshoot ever. I want to do nothing all weekend. I am going to miss my FI though, I only get every other weekened with him and I have been sick all week and he has been avoiding me lol.

  • Once I finish work today I m going shopping for a new bachelorette party outfit, and possible rehearsal dinner outfit if there are any good sales. FI works Saturdays so I am pulling out my cardbox and centerpieces to hopefully finish those tomorrow. Pocket squares need to be ordered for the guys and I need to hit the tanning salon for a gift for my MOH.

    Sunday FI and I are going to try a new japanese restaurant in the area. He's excited for Sushi Sundays. Apparently all sushi is half price.

    Have a great bridal shower!

    WR:  Layout/formatting/final meeting with the venue tonight.  Picking up my dress and taking it for alterations tomorrow.  Also we are honeymoon clothes shopping, buying champagne, cider, toasting flutes, mints and hershey's kisses for the reception.  I will make FI watch the Vow with me because I have never seen it and we got it as a gift from my baby sis for my bridal shower.  She did a popcorn bucket, popcorn and wedding related movies, it was SO cute :)  I will reorganize our spreadsheets too - the budget and the checklist.

    NWR:  It is a rare weekend where my stepkids are not coming over.  They are with Grandma, so we will enjoy a last weekend just the two of us before the wedding!  That means relaxing on the couch snuggling. LOL

My b-party is next weekend and the venue needs the first count by March 25, and final count on April 1. With easter being the weekend before the wedding we just don't have any other time to do it.
