Wedding Blog!!

WOW! It's almost been 2 months since I last posted!! By now, everyone who matters to me has heard that I am engaged to my boyfriend of 3 years! I've been trying to get pictures of my ring but they are all blurry or don't do it justice! Josh and I are getting our engagement pictures taken this weekend, so hopefully we will get a better shot. In order to cut costs, my mom will be taking our engagement pictures. To me, the pictures are the number one most important thing, because they will last forever, long after the wedding is over! So I am saving the little extra money we aren't spending on engagement pictures to splurge on an AWESOME photography for the wedding.

We don't have much planned, but we do know that the wedding will be the end of the summer of 2010. I will be done with my masters degree in December of 2009, and I wanted to make sure that I could enjoy the rest of the planning and the honeymoon period! I didn't want to get back from a honeymoon and jump right back into school. So our engagement will be long, but it will be worth the wait! We are hoping that with so much time we will be able to find the best deals everywhere!!

Right now, our biggest issue is the guest list!! We haven't even gotten finalized lists from the parents and we already have 300 people! It's tough to find places around here to accomodate that many people! So we will probably have to make a few cuts, but we want to avoid that as much as possible! I guess that's what happens when we both have pretty large families!

Any wedding advice??

I just made this book to help me organize my planning.
