First of all....sorry for not keeping up with this PJ ladies. I will do better!
I am having a major freak out this week. I'm down to almost 3 months before the wedding and I still feel like I have so much to do!
So back to the PJ.
After we decided to have the "real" wedding, we had to pick a date! I thought it should be after the kids were out of school so that we could find babysitters while we went on our Honeymoon! But on the other hand I didn't want it to be to late in the summer when it was soooooo hot. So, I picked the first weekend in June. The neat thing about it, is June 7th is the day after my dad's birthday. The first thing was deciding would we have it at our church? Kenneth and I both wanted that even though I had always kind of had in the back of my mind maybe getting married in the church my parents got married in. Even though they are now divorced. Oh well. I digress. I had to find out if the church was available and fast!
Yay! It was! We thought a afternoon wedding would be best so that out of town guests could drive in the morning of and go home in the evening. We decided on a 3pm wedding.
Now we have a date! And a time! What now? My step-mom volunteered to help me. Thank god! I had no idea what to do. Well other than the basics. I need a dress, flowers, etc.
We decided to go with invitations first because she knew a great place! Why invitations first? I have no idea....but hey, they are out of the way! Oh and thank you notes too.
Here are some pictures.
The envelopes
The response cards
The thank you cards
More to come!
