Planning

Hi everyone!!! Just thought I would update you all on how planning is going. I would like to say that Ken is being more than helpful. We have made appointments to talk to most of the major vendors. We are meeting with the cake lady tomorrrow, our caterer during the week, and we will choose invitations this week as well. I have picked the dress I would like for my bridesmaids. I went for Bill Levkoff's Style 966.

The dress is a formal length made of satin. It comes with a shawl that is optional to wear. The color chosen for the dress is European Black. So, now that I have gotten dresses picked, and a vendor to order them from, I must decide if everyone will have to get the same shoe. Decisions decisions...
I am working on finalizing the wedding party with Ken. Then on to bigger projects, like tackling the guest lists.

Right now, both of our lists are out of control. I am ready to reign it in, but Ken not so much. I remember when we first started discussing guests, he thought that his list would be ultra short. Ha !!! His list is much longer than my own, and I have a huge family to invite. Needless to say, there is a lot of work to be done there. I am sure we will, but I do agree it is really hard to cut people. We both are finding that people will invite themselves (which is kinda funny). I don't have the heart to tell them initially they probably won't get an invite. I am sure we will find the most delicate way to handle that segment.

I am trying to not stress out about tomorrow, but I can't say that I am doing that very well. So please keep us in your prayers as we continue to book vendors and plan the rest of our lives.
