Whirlwind ...
Today was a work holiday, woopie! And, an excellent time to get some wedding stuff done.
After a nice run at Antrim, I packed Sparky in the car, & we headed over to my parent's house. My mom & I started working on the ribbons to tie on the bubbles. I got to have lunch with Matt, which was very nice. We got done eating early, & attempted to find a doggy gate at Target to add to our registry. Stores should seriously give couples a holster for that scanner gun. :)
Following lunch, my mom & I went to the store & found table clothes for the reception. At 2:30, we met with Flowers on High - the first floral appointment to date. The owner was a very nice lady, & her shop smelled wonderful. Turns out she knows Meredith (as in Cope Photography, our photographer!) After that we headed to floral appointment #2 with David in Upper Arlington. That was also a nice & informative meeting.
After the floral appointments were over, we visited another store to get more table clothes & ribbon. Once home, the last of the bubbles were ribboned-up & put back in the wedding room. There's getting to be not a lot of space left in the wedding room ... I'm sure my parents will be glad when they have full use of it again.
Ok, time to relax before bed. :)

His and Hers
I took this picture on Sunday, but I'm just now getting around to posting it on the interwebs. We now have our wedding bands, and I got this action shot of the rings doing what they do best before mine went to live with Teri until May 2. Mine is the one on the right and Teri's is the one on the left in case you're simple.
As a jewelry photographer, I make a pretty good editor.

One Week at a Time ...
Wedding planning continues in full swing! We are just under the 3 month mark ... we've gotten a lot done and have a lot yet to do. But, it's nice to know that 3 months from now, all the planning, stressing, minute decision making, etc. will be over, and Matt & I'll be cruising to the Bahamas. :) That sounds especially nice with this freezing weather we've been having! BRRR!
We met with another caterer Sunday after church, & had a really good meeting. We're planning to have a taste testing with him at the end of the month. We have our first taste testing tomorrow with a different caterer, but I'll let Matt write more on that after the fact. I have to though say I've been looking forward to the food all week, yum!!
My mom & I are meeting with the church wedding coordinator tomorrow afternoon to figure out some logistics & get guidance on a couple things. I need some questions answered so I stop stressing out. For one, does it really matter if we release guests one row at a time or have a receiving line with family only? How in the world will I attach the pew bows (stop it Matt & Annie!) to the pews? I'm hoping for a productive meeting that eases my mind and helps my mom & I know what we need to buy after seeing what the church has.
I've set up a practice wedding hair day for later in the month. Now I just need to narrow my choice down to 1 from the 15 or so I have in mind. :)
Other accomplishments:
- set up appt with a DJ
- set up appt with florists
- ordered part 1 of the bridesmaid's gifts
- completed registeries
- delegated hotel finding duties to my mom
To Do This Weekend:
- try Steve's food tomorrow evening (twist my arm, come on) CHECK
- meet with church wedding coordinator CHECK
- finish flower girl baskets CHECK
- start & finish the bridesmaid's bouquets CHECK
- fill in more addresses for invitations Check
- start this week's pre-marital counseling homework Check
