So, in a feeble attempt to wake up the boards alittle: what is everyone working on (besides Christmas, if anything) this week? and what did they accomplish last week?
I'll start:
Last week- I finally figured out what FI and I are going to dance to for our first dance. I found a beautiful and unique song that depicts our creativity (we are both artists of some sort) and our devotion to each other. It's called "Yours and Mine" by Brooke Annibale.
This week- we're working on figuring out the parent dances and maybe, if we're really productive, getting our list together for the dj.
Re: Did I just see a tumbleweed? Where is everyone?!
my read shelf:
I've also been working on the units for my current graduate course (Budgeting and School Finance - YeeHaw). Two more classes and in internship and I will be done!
Ironing out the details of the rehearsal dinner. We will be having it at Rira but tweaked it a bit. Decided on more of a laid back feel than a formal sit down plated dinner.
We just completed our Pre-Cana marriage course this weekend which went well. I am just ordering little things here and there and am starting to think about my invitations. We are a little late on our E-pics but we are taking them in two weeks...
Meeting with my florist in a few weeks to tweak the flowers a bit
and I booked my boudoir session with Shelly Rose which im super excited and nervous about!! Happy Planning !
Last week we decided on a date July 13, 2013 and submitted to the venue, just waiting to recieve the proposal and contract in the mail.
This week I have been researching and pricing out different vendors to get a general feel of what will work with our budget.
everyone is moving along! That is so great to hear
Set a time to sign the contract for our venue! Once that is done then I will finally start putting together invites so then I dont have to do them once the semester starts which is exciting. Also VERY HAPPY to be done wtih finals that is for sure.
We just got our wedding books done to give to everyone for Christmas. They came out really nice so I'm pretty excited about that!! Other than that, just getting ready for Christmas. We are making the LONG drive up to Maine again, so we've been getting ready for the trip. So excited to be back again, although I'm a little sad it seems like there won't be any snow!
lclemence- my friend got her wedding band way before the wedding and loved it so much, she started wearing it on her right hand until the wedding because she wanted to wear it. haha, i couldn't do that but it cracked me up that she did.
It has been a busy week for us! I went dress shopping for the first time at David's Bridal in South Portland and had a great experience! I tried on 6 dresses total and the 4th one I tried on, I fell in love with. I kept going back to that one and couldn't stop thinking about it even when trying on new ones. I made the purchase, along with finding shoes and a veil. I will post pics soon!
We are also going to our last cupcake tasting to verify the colors and the assortment. Yum! We have a Maine Wild Blueberry cupcake, a Chocolate Caramel cupcake, Carrot Cake, and a S'Mores Cupcake.

Paula?
I am just starting to get into the wedding planning so will probably be a lot more active on the boards I'm hoping!
