Blog On Delay

I thought when I started this wedding blog, I would put ideas and pictures on here....but I didn't want to give away what the wedding would look like for those attending.

Sooo....after October 24 (which is in 18 days by the way) I will post pictures and all the DIY projects for you other Brides out there planning.

See you in a few weeks!

Hello Again

I'm still here....Just been really busy lately.  Sorry for the delay in blogging!  My Aunt Linda was even starting to wonder about me when she hadn't seen a blog post in awhile!  Love you Aunt Linda! :)

Well things are coming right along...104 days to go until we will be hitched!

Nothing too exciting to share.  This week I have a huge list and just for my benefit I am going to list it here.

Passport Application

Honeymoon Destinations - Travel Agent Visits

Order Table Lines

Meet with Rental Company

Meet with Caterers

Newspapers Announcements

Flower Consults

I think that will just about fill this week up!

I have taken a big break in the planning in the past month.  House Hunting and Life just got busy and I didn't have time or was too tired...but now I need to kick it into high gear.

Can't wait to see everything come together.  

Later this week I will share some pictures since I haven't done that in awhile :)

Engagement Pictures

Oh my!! I love our engagement pictures!! Here is a preview!

Our photographer is Jessica Meinardus of Jessica Meinardus Photography. She is located in Van Buren, AR. Jessica is very talented and great to work with. We really enjoyed our shoot and can't wait until our wedding. If you are located in Northwest Arkansas or the River Valley I would highly recommend Jessica as your photographer. Great experience!!

The Dress

I found it!!!  Can't wait to share pictures of our wedding day with you!!  Until then...the dress is in hiding.  :)

My friend and bridesmaid Leah came up and we went to the Briar Patch in Fayetteville and I tried it on and it was amazing!  Just the feeling of this is the ONE!  I tried on tons of dresses and this is the only one I didn't want to take off. 

I thought about it all weekend and went back on Tuesday and ordered it.  It will be here in August!!

Here's a picture of Leah and I trying on dresses - 

Now don't worry this isn't my dress, but I can't wait to have pictures like this...

Rain Rain Go Away!

Can someone please let Mother Nature know that we have engagement pictures on Saturday and would much appreciate if the rain would stop for an afternoon.  

I am praying that the rain holds off long enough for us to take our photos.  It would be really hard to reschedule. Or if the rain would hold off until the end.  I'm not opposed to some rain shots but please at the end not the beginning.

I did find a Maxi dress!!  Thanks to my future sister-in-law!  Mandy and I went shopping on Monday and found a super cute one.  I can't wait to share a few pictures with you as soon as we receive them!

Just in case you were wondering...We are getting married in 163 Days!!  :) :) :)

We are having engagement pictures taken on the 16th of May! I can't wait to meet our photographer and see what she is going to do. She has already mentioned a nice waterfall picture setting.

Now on to what to wear....I am thinking about one of these...

Just have to figure out solid or pattern? Color? What to get Will to match in??

Anyone have any favorite engagement poses?
