    Did you take e-pics? (Bonus points for posting pics!) No...We were supposed to take pictures outside and each and every time they were scheduled it thunderstormed.. FI wasn't thrilled about taking them anyways so I figured this was a sign that we were not supposed to have e-pics!

    Have you been to Vegas before? No! Neither of us have been! Just thought it would be a fun easy place to get married :)
    What's your favorite restaurant in LV?

    Wedding Date: November 17, 2012

    Did you take e-pics? (Bonus points for posting pics!) Not yet but we JUST got engaged on February 18th so we probably will do so.

    Are you doing a strip tour? I don't think so. I can't figure out how to do it without having to spend hours between the ceremony and reception. I think it would be fun though!
    Where?
    Have you been to Vegas before? Nope, never.

    What's your favorite restaurant in LV? Can't say since I haven't been. They all look pretty yummy though!

    What's your favorite meal of the day? Breakfast, for sure.

    What are you doing this weekend? It is my son's 6th birthday tomorrow so we're busy with birthday party stuff all weekend. Oh and my daughter has a soccer tournament as well. Weekends aren't so restful for me!

    Are you amped that it's almost spring?!  No. We don't have Spring in Texas. We have hot and hotter. It is already 80 degrees and humid today and it's only going to get hotter. Plus the mosquitos are back. Yuck.

    Are you doing a strip tour?  Where?  Doing a DD Meet & Greet the night before the wedding - stops on Freemont & the LV sign - most of my guests have never been to Vegas before so we thought it would be a great way to have an introduction to the Strip.

  • @ Sportsbear - I was born in Ireland so we are having a "Big Fat Irish Wedding" so where better for our reception than an Irish pub??  We are having the traditional Irish ceremony at Paiute Golf Resort then heading to NFI for a party!  I'm glad to hear that yours went smoothly.  So far I've had a tad bit of trouble communicating with them, I think its probably because they're like "oh, she has more than a year" but still.

    You sound like my kinda person.  XD;;

    Saturday I had work and then met DH and went to go see<em> In Time</em> because some peeps recommended it to us.  (Ugh hate how movies are like 5 months late overseas from the U.S. release date.  Can't see <em>Hunger Games</em> when it comes out and I'm so disappointed but I digress...)

    Then we came home and slept in really late today...  FI fixed us breakfast (rare, but muchly appreciated!) and we're just chillin around the house doing chores here and there.  I made cheesecake for the first time for after dinner and it's sitting in the fridge; hope it turns out!

    I have Monday off so I hope to get most of the rest of our wedding album organized so we can hurry and get it printed.
