The Big Day

So after all the complaining in my last post I felt the need to post something nicer.

Kevin and I are getting married next year! With this awful semester it has been easy to forget the excitement of wedding planning, but I have been able to get some things accomplished.

I've purchased my dress, decided on the reception site, and picked a pattern for bridesmaids dresses. We have a caterer in mind and are thinking about all of the other details.

Planning is a bit overwhelming but exciting too! The one thing that I don't really like about planning is starting to pay for things... but so far the things we have begun paying for have been relatively inexpensive and not difficult to manage. My dress was only $600 and the fee for the reception site was $550. With the wedding being more than a year away we have plenty of time to figure everything else out (and pay for things).


Bridesmaids will be wearing a blue version of the black dress in the picture below:





the reception site from one end and then the other:





I'm obviously not putting any pictures of my dress up... but I must say I look pretty fabulous in it! I have some ideas of flowers and such but nothing's officially chosen yet.

So... I suppose that's all for now.

I NEED to see pictures of your dress!!! I'm so giddy and curious if it looks anything like the one you loved when you were with me.
