Engagement photos and Bachlorette party!
Sorry I haven't blogged in a while, there hasn't been too much to say! I was able to get just about everything done so quickly.
My bachlorette party was this past weekend, thank you to all my girlfriends that made it so much fun! We went to Friday's downtown and had dinner, then went to Dr. Grins at the BOB, and then headed down to the Crush to dance. It look a little while for the party to get started, but we had a great time! Crush wasn't really playing the music I like and was uber packed with sweaty drunk people, so we went to Eve. Eve is the shiiiz for real. Loved the music, loved that there were just a few people on the dance floor and it seemed like all the cool people were there (so I fit right in, haha!) The best part is that they are open til 3am, my kinda place! My goal was to not get drunk and make an ass of myself. I had a few drinks and danced for about 4 hours straight. It was perfect!
Today we had our engagement photos taken tonight (by Tim Motley of Motley Cat Studios.) I've known Tim for about 10 years...we've worked together and I had my internship/apprenticeship through him. We did some in his studio and some downtown. We went for the high fashion/urban look, I can't wait to see them! I will post them this weekend:)
I still have a few things on my "to do" list:
1. Ouuuups, get the wedding cake ordered.
2. Order the chairs
3. pick up my dress
4. find someone to play the violin
Other than that, we're good to go! Less than 10 days....bring it on!

The little details
So I think we pretty much have all of the big details wrapped up. Except for chairs, which I haven't decided if we need for sure. (It's a big expense!)
But, I've managed to plan a wedding in a little over two weeks. Kudos to me, thank you very much.
It won't be the grandest, flashiest "it" wedding, but it will be lovely all the same. But I'm marrying my best friend and I'm going to get to spend time with my family and a few friends and means the world to me.
Thank you again for all your support! (Especially you "S" who hand wrote all the addresses on the invites!)

less than 30 days!
So lot's has happened! We found a minister, so now I can send out the invites for sure. He's really a cool guy and has a lot of the same views, so I think we will all mesh well.
Tony got his ring- and booooy did we get a deal! All I have to say is that the Internet beats the mall hands down! It's the coolest ring I've ever seen! "T" wanted to know if he could wear it now...I said only girls get to wear their rings before the ceremony. I thought that was cute though.
The photographer is all set and I can't wait to see all of the cool photos we're going to come up with. I've had quite a few friends offer to shoot for free, which has made me feel very loved. Thanks again guys, you all rock!
I bought a TON of lavender, which is for the centerpieces, along with terracotta planters. (Since the theme has turned into more of a garden party.) I also got some cool ribbon- it's funny that pretty ribbon gets me all excited now. I think I've turned into a "girl."
We might not do all of the food- as some of the moms have backed down on the dessert making, so we're looking at an alternative. I'll let you know about the company if we book them.
I want to thank all of my girlfriends that have offered their help. Thank you so much!! It really feels for the first time that I can really pull this off. :)
