La Musica

I've been slacking- sorry guys! Well, today I figured out who/what I want so far as music for the ceremony. The Capital String Ensemble will be our vendor, the rest is a secret!! Know this: mom and I are super excited, everything has fallen into place!
The BM dresses should be here in a couple more weeks, my passport should also be here very soon. After the dresses get here with my extra fabric I'll have to go see Mrs. Robin (my aunt and wonderful seamstress) and have her tie up the loose ends on my dress. Then, we're on cruise controll until June!!
I just want to thank everyone for all of their help and suggestions! I have some of the most wonderful friends and family! Talk to you soon!
Muah!
3 months, 2 weeks and 1 day! woo hoo!

FlOwErS!!!!


Well, mom and I drove all the way out to Wendell to meet with the florist. He's amazing and made everything so much fun!! I'm not to give everything away because some things must remain a suprise- but there will be lots of roses, a few lilies and some greenery!
It was amazing- we brought the picture of the bouquet I like for me and Mike had it in one of his books. It was EXACTLY the same thing!!
Mrs. Barnowski and myself will be going down to the Meredith Chapel on March 30th before we go drop the invitations off with the calligrapher. Other than that, we only have to find an organist or violinist!! Once that's done, we're on cruise control until late June!!!
I haven't spoken to some of my brides maids in awhile, I hope everyone's getting along, being adults and having fun!! Love you guys!

Invitations!!!

Word on the streets is that our invitations are in!! I'm so excited and I'm not showing them to anyone before-hand (except maybe Chris). Not sure if I told everyone but mom and I are meeting with the flower guy next Thursday. So all we really have left to do is find someone to play some music for us- violinist or organist?! We'll discuss it and let you guys know!
Thanks for supporting me and my blog and thank you so much for the comments. Aside from one rude one, I've enjoyed what everyone has to say!
Chris goes today to get his passport applied for and sent off. I'm guessing mine should be in by the end of this month.
I'm really feeling a sense of accomplishment- we're 4 months out and have everything but the flowers and music settled on. The flowers, hopefully, won't be too bad- I have an idea of what I like.
Any hoo, that's about it for now- hi S.H.!!

PrOgReSSiOn


OK, I know, it's been awhile! I've been busy though!
Last weekend Mom and I (impatiently) sat at Party City for a couple of hours deciding on the invitation layout, coloring, wording and script. It was a pain in my rear!! But they're on order and should be here in two weeks! Then we have the appointment with the calligrapher on the 30th of this month. I think we'll be sending the invitations out mid to late April.
Chris goes this week to get his passport applied for! Woo hoo! Hm... I think it's been about a month since I applied for mine- how long does it take?!
Next Thursday Mom and I have an appointment with Mike out in Wendell for flowers. Yes, I said Wendell. Don't ask me why, accept that that's the way it is. I don't like answering rude or second guessing questions. However, any suggestions or positive reinforcement is greatly appreciated!!
July is right around the corner (4 months and 1 day to be exact!) and I can't wait to see the in-laws and all those family members that I haven't seen in awhile! It's been awhile since I've given you guys a picture, and those you all seem to enjoy... so how about the wedding cake I picked out... All the places that there's white decoration, it'll be green on mine. And there will only be one single "G" at the bottom in green. Not for Gaither, but for Gholson! AND NO FLOWERS AT THE TOP-EW!
