Thanks for all of the kind words everyone!! I appreciate them! Ive been working quite diligently since graduation and have mailed out our first packets including the 6 page newsletter, luggage tag, save the date, and the pre rsvp. (although my dumb*** forgot to leave a space for someones name on the prersvp and so now theyll send it in and i wont know who it is that is or isnt coming..arrrgh 
) I feel so much better knowing it is all out and taken care of. I mailed them in big white catalog envelopes since they looked a lot nicer that way i think.
Ive got our wedding website up and working, if youd like to see it PM me and I can give you my name or add you on facebook so you can see it. although its kind of a pain bc you can only invite 40 people per day and ive got about 60 or 70 to invite on facebook, not including email..so its a headache. and really confusing too!
I picked up my dress the other day after getting the bustle done and I will need to havethe dress taken in at my waist because it is pooching where the extra fabric is on my back above my butt area..not cute!
my shoes are too high..this is so depressing. they are fabulous and im bummed. so i will be selling them since theyre brand new and all. if anyones interested let me know. they are a size 7! white with diamond studs on the heel, the picture is here somewhre..im too lazy to link it right now..maybe later...lol.
i am joining a gym tonight and will probably hate myself for it for a while..but in the long run im praying its worth it..somethings gotta give. i really need to tone and tighten and shrink..haha.
the bridal shower went awesome last weekend, i will post pics when i get them. its been soo hectic here lately, im still collecting my thoughts a bit.
thats all i can think of right now, ill keep thinking for new developments. Talk to you all soon!

It seems as though we are selling the reception short for a few fireworks, and possibly not the best seen ones either! Ive read that from Whitehall you can only see the biggest fireworks and trees are in the way. So Im re-evaluating. DF and I agree that the night before the wedding is a much more logical alternative. So I spoke to my planner and see what is still available for that Saturday night. We are holding Terrace les Fleurs (French Upper) for Illuminations as well as The Grand Floridian Marina for Wishes. We will make the decision on which one to choose one the fireworks schedule is set in stone 6 months out. The pros and cons to both locations really are about equal and we are having a hard time deciding which is our preference. Also the same Saturday last year Wishes was at 10pm, too late for us to have a DP the night before the wedding. It was bc of 
Ahem, BlueZoo, Shulas, Il Mulino, Flying Fish, Narcoossees, Cali Grill, Brown Derby, etc..you get the idea. 
Personalized stemless wine glasses! Something similar to this. Some of the reviews Ive read say that the script comes out small so Im trying to find some with better reviews. As of now this is what we've got!
And I got them for a KILLER price! It beats the published price by almost 1000 buckaroos! This is not the company but another really popular one here in Houston, just a little idea of what it will sound like. 
) I will be renting Chiavari Chairs from A Little Flower Shop for $5/chair! Im signing the contract at 100 just in case a lot of people show and if we have a ton extra maybe we can use them for the pre reception or I will just cancel the extras and save some $$. Here's a picture, and its actually just about everything I want! I love the candelabras, floral chairs, and everything.. Its gorgeous!! 
EEEK! Granted Ive got a lot of family but still! So as of today we are estimating a group of about 85 for the wedding. We will see how that turns out.

) And by doing them ourselves it created more room in the budget for other fun stuff! You should at least try to make one thing for your wedding and then move up from that, itll personalize it more and you will be more emotionally invested in your day! The logo that Dolly created for me is definitely one of my favorite things throughout the wedding as well! Its so "me" and really fits the look I was going for. And thank you for the compliment on my dress, I love it soo much! 
Now I just need to find my dream shoes!
and thanks for stopping by my PJ too 
Also, I love the favours! I would be so happy with a stemless wine glass as a favour! Something I would use and that would be a reminder of the wedding day, great pick!
