Pimp Me!

Sorry this hasn't been updated recently, but there hasn't been much new news! My family had some sad time to deal with and ending school for me was taking over everything, including wedding stuff.

But it is a new month and the wedding is getting closer and closer! While I am trying to finalize a guest list to get an idea of who we need to send "save-the-date"s to, I am stuck because my parents haven't given me a list of anyone (friend wise) they want to invite and my mom keeps inviting people to come (family of course, but some cousins I haven't seen for years...and I have a ton of cousins). I don't mind, but it doesn't help with the numbers, which we are trying to keep at a minimal anyway.

STDs (save-the-dates in knottie lingo) are going to be created and hopefully I will get together soon with Evan's mom to do this. She is an art teacher and incredibly crafty. While I would just send out any plain thing, I know that she will come up with something inspired! I want these to go out by the end of July at the latest, since we are inviting a lot of people from out of state and a few from out of country.

We are trying to think of music as well for the ceremony and I know that I want to walk down the aisle to this:



We have an awesome cellist friend, Steve, who is willing to play for the ceremony and I wanted something beautiful, not Wagner or with trumpet, and Bach. Voila! I do still need to okay this with the church though...

I did go looking at bridesmaid dresses with my MOH Adriane two weekends ago where we must have put 40 dresses at least on her. We broke that down to three top choices and I wasn't blown away by any of them...more to come from that.

The next steps when Evan comes back from C-bus (he is finishing up his Masters classes) is cakes, florist & transportation. I am going to plan out hotel information and start making some appointments.

Oh, and I found this video for your viewing pleasure:o).
