  • Lol sorry lets see if I can figure this out from my phone
  • Orange cat is our 9yr old that fi owned prior to me, named monster. Grey cat is Matilda she will be 3 in July we adopted her 2 months after we bought our house.
  • In all honesty there has been very little done in the executing the plan area. We have a general idea but we haven't pulled the trigger on one thing yet. Meeting with photog next week and talking with a caterer tomorrow and dress shopping on june 1st. We were just going to have a dessert reception and today my aunt & cousins have offered to pay for a lunch as our wedding gift, my FI is very against taking this gift so we'll see. I want to see what the caterer can do with our food budget before I let my family give this gift.

    I'm excited about getting married this fall but totally stressed already about all of it. Trying to stay calm.
  • We're from Rochester and getting married in Oxford. We're hoping by doing it Oct 5th that maybe we'll have ok weather. Everything is 100% outside for us.
  • Why the big date jump?

    PS Your babies are adorable. :)
  • We ended up moving up the date because my cousin has offered to let us have our wedding at her horse farm/house and it will be outside. We live in Michigan so after mid October you're really pushing your luck with an outdoor event. We're getting tents and reserving heaters just in case. The only other option was pushing it back from February to may/June 2014 and we didn't want to wait that long to get married so October it is!
  • Welcome! 

     
    S'mores. Just S'mores please.
  • Welcome!  Good luck with your planning!!!
