The Invites are Sent!

Finally!!! The time has come! We have printed, stuffed and mailed our invites out to the masses!! Hurray!  Okay so if it didn’t feel real before it definitely does now!
Our Wedding is officially 112 days from today. 
EEK!
You know when you first start planning the wedding and you think to yourself “Wow! I’m getting so much accomplished.  If I keep this up it’s just going to be smooth sailing”.  But then 8 months slide by and you think to yourself “Shit! How is there more to do now than there was 8 months ago??”
Even though we took an extended break from all the wedding craziness, things are now back on track.  Last Saturday I had my bridal hair and make-up consultation and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results!! My make-up artist/hair stylist is AMAH-ZING!  It doesn’t hurt that she is cute, young, fun and super out-going!  Getting ready for the wedding is going to be a blast!  Oh and if you have some upcoming nuptials and you are looking for someone good check out http://www.jaynamarie.com/JBMakeupArtistry/home.html but unfortunately she is completely booked for 2013.
A couple of weeks ago my super helpful second mother helped me hone my vision for the flower centerpieces by working with me to arrange flea market bought flowers in vases to get just the right formula.  Of course because she is brilliant we managed to find a look we liked in no time at all so we spent the rest of the afternoon sipping delicious margaritas made with love by my old man! 
The last couple of weeks have been amazing.  I have had the opportunity to spend my birthday with all of my friends and family, get lots done for the wedding.  Even though there is still so much to do I feel like things are starting to come together. 
Still on the list of things to do:
        1.      Hire a limo… preferably vintage…. And cheap HAHAHAHAHAH
        2.      Find a florist to make my bridal party bouquets
        3.      Find 3 more vases for center pieces
       4.      Decide if we are going to hire a DJ because they are very expensive and we can only really afford $600.00
       5.      Figure out what to do about the seating chart display
       6.      Get a massage

And the list goes on!  I’m not going to lie.  I’m so super excited to spend August 2, 2013 having the best time with everyone I love and can’t live without!

  1. Just read this! If you hadn't already decided, my personal suggestion is to keep the seating chart simple :)
