Last week I decided I didn't like my wedding ring, so I'm going to be exchanging it next weekend. I also did a lot of research into invitations. I have a couple designs picked out but I still have a few more websites to check out. 

This week I'll get my new wedding ring, and we have our cake tasting on Saturday which I'm really excited for.

We sent out our invitation list to our invitation designer. I purchased fg baskets and my veil. I finally settled on my jewelry. I will be wearing a gorgeous pair of earrings and my mom's neckalce as my something old. Today I bought frames that we plan on spray painting silver and using for the table numbers. Dad gave me the go-ahead to hire a trumpet player to play for my entrance and exit so this week I need to contact him. I need to work on get some more rooms blocked out for guests. I need to also look into an aisle runner for the wedding.

I didn't do much of anything last week. I tried my shoes on to break them in and realized that they seemed significantly tighter than they had in the store. I returned them and ordered a new pair that are waiting for me at the post office. I really hope they fit because I'd like this to be done!
