** lcarp203 **

I don't usually gush, but since we have a venue and several vendors in common (and, obviously, fantastic taste! ;), I almost feel like I know you.  You have been so sweet and so amazingly supportive -- not just of me, but of all of us Phoenix brides -- and I am SO happy for you and your fiance, and SO excited that you're getting married tomorrow.

I hope you have the time of your life. 

Congratulations! 


P.S.  Don't forget to come back and share pictures!  You're already gorgeous, so I know you will make a stunning bride!  I know I'll be stalking Drew's blog for the next week or two, lol.

    *Heart* Thanks so much!  I know, I feel like you and I have totally bonded over the mutual vendors and venue!  I will give an official update with reviews soon!  But the short version goes something like:

    Every thing was AMAZING!  Not 100 percent perfect, but about 98 percent perfect and 2 percent great!  So, all in all, it was everything I could have asked for and more!  All of the vendors were great and on point! 

    Drew and Rick = Fabulous!  Cant wait to see the pictures!!!!  and, if you let Teff play Apache, Rick will dance.  I think we should start a tradition!

    Teffanie - I got soooo many complements!  She was funny and personable!  Everyone L.O.V.E.D Her!

    If you still need a pastor/minister/officiant I got sooooo many complements on mine!  He was great and fantastic.  Our ceremony was funny and he worked in so much about us!  Everything we could have asked for and more!  I am contacting him to get a copy of the sermon because it had so many details about us we were blowen away that he had taken the time to put so much effort into a 20 min deal!

    The cake was amazing!  People ate 2-3 pieces each!  We ordered enough for 20 extra people and we didnt have any left at the end of the night!  I was bummed because I planned for wedding cake Sunday!  But, I was glad that everyone was raving about it!  My cousins even ate the parts they usually throw away and dont serve!  hilarious! 

    And- the Staff at Starfire couldn't have been better!  I got complements all night that they were friendly and attentive!  Teff, Shane and Sandy get along great and love working with one another and it made for a smooth night!  The venue was a gorgeous place for a wedding!  I know you will be happy!

    All in all a great, wonderful and fabulous time!  I almost feel like those words dont describe it!  No nerves or anything!  Anyone who has been on the knot as much as we have will be totally calm and collected on their wedding day!  I am so looking forward to seeing the rest of your Journey Michelle, as well as all of the other ladies on this board! 

    I will post the more official version soon!  I am still thinking about yesterday!!!

    Yay!  I'm so happy to hear that everything went so well for you!  The few pictures I saw on Facebook were amazing: you were so pretty and everyone seemed so genuinely delighted to share in your day.  It might actually have brought a tear to my eye!

    And that's a fantastic tip about Rick and Apache!  I will definitely keep that in mind.  We'll have to tip Kimheartscott off, too.  :)

    Confession?  I booked Mark Faul!  I didn't mean to.  I was actually making a point of NOT booking your officiant, because we already had a venue, a photographer and a DJ in common.  But somehow, I got it into my head that you had Phil Waring!  I thought Pastor Mark was safe!  I sent FI over to the reviews section on WeddingWire and asked him to help me choose some officiants to interview, and Mark Faul made his short list.  I met with a few but he was the one I connected with.  I have a degree in psychology and he is a counseling psychologist, so I felt we had something in important common even though he is a Christian and I'm not.  I didn't realize until about a month later when someone asked for officiant reccs that we had the same vendor -- again!

    LOVE IT!  I absolutely do not mind that we have vendors in common!  In fact, I am happy that someone else is connecting with those we liked!  I put SOOOO much effort in to choosing vendors and I think it really paid off on the day of.  I interviewed at least 3 but as many as 10 vendors in every category, so I really feel like I made the best choice for FI and I.  FI is a computer engineer and a little nerdy (definitely a term of endearment).  After getting to know you a few months on the board I am sure that you and Jef are quite similar to Mike and I. 

    PS- I love your bio.  I made Mike look at it and he laughed too.

    PSS- I wanted to invite you to my wedding but FI told me know because I would come across as creepy!
