Wedding Momentum

Since Neil and I picked a reception venue I'm trying not to lose any steam when it comes to wedding planning! So as of this week we have sent the deposit in for the reception venue, photographer and DJ and reserved a hotel block. We have quotes/estimates/contracts pending for the ceremony, transportation, draping, rehearsal dinner and booze.

Right now I'm obsessed with wedding planning. I love making calls to vendors, getting estimates, making spreadsheets and haggling rates! I spent hours the other night looking through magazines getting a bunch of DIY ideas. I'm so anxious to book all the vendors so I can get to work on the crafts!

I've been putting off wedding dress shopping, but know I need to get on that in the next few weeks. My sister and I are going to look for bridesmaids dresses this weekend to get an idea on what kind of style and color we want. I get so anxious about shopping for dresses. I feel like the places are all so classy and the sales people are skinny and look so put together. Meanwhile I'll come in with split ends, gross eyebrows (I'm working on them!!!), and Old Navy jeans.

                                                                                               This is how I'll look. 

Neil has been focusing his resources on the honeymoon! He came home last night with a great agenda and lots of really fun and great ideas! So many of my friends have said that always forgot about the honeymoon because they were so caught up planning the actual wedding and I definitely understand what they mean! I love that Neil has put so much thought and effort into this and is trying to make it extra special for us both!
