Wedding Planning

I'm so sorry for not posting in such a long, long, long time!! I have got to be the worst blogger EVER!;(

Something really excited has happened since my last blog post,

I've got one of these......

I'm so excited to be marring Samuel Joseph Taylor! 

I've decided every Monday to post some wedding details.

Since I got engaged two weeks ago, we have checked many things off our list:

~Set a time and date for the wedding - May 12, 2012 at 2:00

~ Contact wedding a officiate - Walt Briley

~Develop a budget - $5,000

~Begin compiling your guest list - around 350 people

~ Decide on a color scheme - cotton candy pink and chocolate brown. 

~Decide on honeymoon plans - A cabin in the mountains  

~Decide on and order attendants gowns - either this one or this one

 Things we will be working to check off our list in the next 4 weeks: 

~Decide style of ceremony - inside or outside wedding

 ~Choose our wedding party

~Go wedding dress shopping 

~ Register for wedding gifts
