...and hopefully it will be for the last time.
The first date was this past April, the second date was this October, but after realizing that school has been very demanding for us both, we decided to push it back until February. Even though by then it would have been a 16 month engagement, I am really warming up to the idea of a cozy warm February wedding and reception. It totally takes a load off trying to find outdoor venues, which I have been really stressing about for some months now and have caused me to drag behind the planning. Better yet, our proposed date is February 18, 2012...the same date as our dating anniversary date 6 years ago. My fiance is big on numbers so by the time we get married, we would have completed 7 years of dating and would then start a new beginning as wife and husband into our 8th year together. This makes it so worth the wait! Also, the date would be the same backward and forward 2.18.12.
There is a reason for everything! Just a little post to encourage all of us then when things don't work the way we have initially planned during this wedding planning process (of life period), it will be ok and it still work out for the best in the end. I would have never considered a winter wedding but after pushing back the date due to outside circumstances, the third date now has the most meaning to me and my fiance.
Once again, I am really excited about wedding planning again. Plus my parents are ready to get this ball rolling...lol.
Expect to see a lot more of me around here. I am trying to plan a $10000 wedding for at most 150 guests in the Raleigh area. I am a total DIY-er so I will be looking for lots of ideas for almost everything!
