Back to Planning

Kevin and I more or less took the summer off from wedding planning. Once we secured the venue and sent out save the dates there wasn't a whole lot else we could do immediately. We talked about some things and have ideas about the direction we're going in with others, but for the most part we did nothing other than fantasize about the honeymoon.

Now that the weather's cooling down, we're starting to ramp back up. Which means that you can (hopefully) expect semi-regular updates about the process.

For now we've contacted a photographer and are in the process of arranging an engagement photo shoot. I've made several appointments to go wedding dress shopping. My mom's coming out for a weekend at the end of the month and she, Kevin's mom, my Doctor of Honor Sarah, and myself will all head out and try to find a dress. I even sort of have an idea about what I want. So here's hoping I can find the dress of my dreams without too much hassle or frustration. Or money. But I'm starting to be a little more comfortable compromising on the money front. We'll see what happens.

Once we have engagement photos we can set up our personalized site through Belmont Place that will allow our guests to book rooms for the weekend. I'm pretty excited about that part. And then we have to figure out music and food and flowers. Man, I barely even know where to start with flowers. But it will all come together in the end. And even if it doesn't, at least we'll end up married.
