Ladies and gentlemen, we have progress on the wedding front!
Only 141 days until we become husband and wife. Married! My goodness, where is time going?!
Our invitations are being sent after we okayed the sample that was mailed to us a couple of weeks ago. They are so pretty and so perfect and I couldn't be happier with them! Gosh, this wedding business is starting to feel more real! I can hardly wait to receive them and mail them out to all of our nearest and dearest.
Our reception is confirmed. We contemplated whether we were actually going to have one for a decent amount of time... but in the meantime I carried on making centrepieces and plotting out table decor. I'm glad we chose to go forward with it, and I'm so excited... this won't be your typical wedding reception.
I'm starting to get a little bit DIY happy. Through hours spent browsing multiple blogs, Pinterest, and a little bit of my own creativity, I've been coming up with idea after idea since the day we got engaged. Flowers and decor and favours... oh my! I love planning this stuff. I'd happily be an event decorator. That is the fun part. Budgeting and scheduling, not so much. On a side not, if any of my friends would like to hurry up and get married or have babies, I've got a million ideas for bridal and baby showers that I'm anxious to try!
This is where I'm torn... I created this blog to share my awesome DIY projects with you as I went. Now that I'm actually at the more-than-just-ideas phase, I want to share my excitement and post a billion photos.... but then there will be no surprise when you all show up on the beach in April. I will share everything in post-wedding blog posts, but in the meantime it's going to be our little secret. I've already shown the invites to far too many people that are going to receive one in the mail in the next month or so.
You wanna know something else that is really, really exciting?! .... We are going to be homeowners! That's right. We put an offer on a beautiful place that we both fell in love with and I still can't believe that it will actually be ours. We move in next month just in time for Christmas! Our house! Together!
Everything is so perfect right now, and I'm one very happy girl.
