I got to this at work today. Have I mentioned I love pictures? Surely I have. I loved your pictures and the narration was fun, as always.wedding recaps on my blog
But...it made me want ice cream and gummy bears so bad.
Is it wrong to say "And the wedding"? Because that's the real reason I'm going.Clearly, the cake is the best part of wedding planning
we have locked down church, officiant, reception venue, wedding party and date (June 10th!).
Oh, and Renee bought a dress today. off-the-rack actually, so she already has it. We've got a tentative on the DJ, hope he's available, and we're both really really hoping that our first choice photographers are available and not much more expensive than they were for our friends' wedding back in march. Photographer seems to be the big area where we didn't budget appropriately, even though we thought we were budgeting very generously for that area. If we can get the price our friends got, or even that price plus 20% I'll make up the difference. I'm a pretty good saver, so if I know I need an extra 1500$ for the photographer, I can swing that with ten months to plan.
A friend of mine will probably do engagement photos for us for very reasonable, but first he has to finish producing a feature. My thought is to recreate our first date for the photos rather than posed, have them be more fun, I already kind of know the look I want him to get, but we'll probably only make three actual 'setups' in terms of shots I particularly want.
I think the next thing we'll worry about is hotel and cake and scheduling a food tasting with our venue.
This. We couldn't really do any of it if her parents weren't putting down deposits for us. And her parents have budgeted and saved for their daughters' weddings for years, so there's money that's been set aside for it. Also, Renee knew she wanted it in her church, with her pastor officiating, the venue we got was the first one she mentioned off hand when we were first discussing it, though she looked at half a dozen others with her mom, after a week she was pretty certain that was it, I saw it twice, at night and in the day, and it's just perfect, exactly what I would have wanted as well (spectacular view of LA from the mountains). The dress surprised me, but she found it on her third or fourth place she visited dress shopping, so she went back with her mom (since she found this one on a trip with a friend) and both agreed it was perfect, and they went ahead and got it, since it was an off the rack store. :-pMaybe they have cooperative family?
