Bridal Update!

Okay so I thought that surely I would be blogging non stop about the wedding planning but oddly enough I find myself so overwhelmed by it all that I am barely eeking by just getting things done. By the time things are "done" I don't even want to talk about them, so here is my update!

Venue: Vintage Villas, Austin, Texas

Caterer: Vintage Villas

Accomodations: Vintage Villas (we freaking love this place)

Cake: Michelle's Patisserie

Wedding dress: Purchased. Will arrive in May - hoping that I love it as much as I did in January!

Shoes: Probably the most difficult decision because I really, really, really, really really, love shoes. Like more than anyone should probably love shoes. Still up in the air. I'm thinking about something like this though:
Tuxes: DONE! We found a really great looking slim cut tux and I can't wait to see Casey in it!

Bridesmaid dresses: FINALLY found. I went with a David's bridal dress because it is basically impossible to find a dress that is accessible to all of my friends who are spread out across the country. Here it is!

I decided on "Horizon" blue (which is kind of between a royal and cobalt blue) for the bridesmaids dresses and I'm very excited about them. Hopefully they will be comfortable and rewearable for my girls!

Flowers: I know exactly what I want, I'm just waiting on quotes from florists at this point. NOTE: Florists are not very easy to communicate with. I guess there's always some holiday that keeps them busy.

Centerpieces: Picked out, again just waiting on floral quotes.

Wedding rings: Done! We got a great deal from Zales outlet.

Rehearsal Dinner: Planned and payed for - thank you Daddy! We are having it at (any guesses?) Vintage Villas! They were really great and helped us a plan a very nice dinner for our friends and family.

Now all I have left to do is:

  • Choose and purchase invitations
  • Purchase my veil
  • Purchase my wedding day jewelry
  • Purchase Casey's wedding day gift
  • Figure out wedding favors
  • Purchase our honeymoon tickets and accomodations.
  • and about a million other tiny things that have to be decided on.

I can't believe we're getting married in 4.5 months!
