9 Weeks, 2 Days, and a Wake up!

We're almost down to the 9 week mark. WOW. This last month has flown by so quickly! On Friday it had been exactly 1 month since Todd proposed. Where has that month gone??

As far as wedding plans go, we're doing pretty good!

Here's what we have done so far:
-Booked the Temple
-Booked the Lion House for the luncheon
-Booked Carmelle Reception House
-Talked to the florist
-Ordered tuxes
-Taken our engagements
-Taken my bridals
-Chosen our honeymoon spot (San Diego!!)
-Chosen my cake (Thanks to Carrie, who is going to make it)
-Ordered my wedding band
-Found a duplex for us
-Got a new job (YAY!!!)
-Talked to the caterer


Here's what we have left to do:
-Have our photographer custom design our wedding invitations
-Finish our wedding mailing list
-Finish the sealing and luncheon invitation list
-Mail invitations
-Clean my dress (grass stains from my bridals!)
-Find bridesmaid dresses
-Taste test icing/batter for the cake
-Finalize honeymoon plans


I can't think of anything else at the moment. So far, so good! I took my bridals on Thursday and had such a WONDERFUL time! I went with a western-Victorian style. My dress is a mermaid style with lots of beading, and pleating at the bottom. To put western twist on it, I wore brown riding boots!! I also took my pictures up at a horse ranch, which totally topped it all off. I loved it.

I keep having these little moments where I stop and say, "wow...I'm ACTUALLY getting married." It still hasn't quite sunk in! All in all, I am so excited. Excited for the wedding day, excited to live with Todd, excited to start our new life together. 9 Weeks, 2 Days, and a Wake-up....but who's counting?

  1. To get grass stains out of your dress use baby wipes! It's sounds odd by it WORKS! And it bets paying a dry cleaner!
