Wedding Sanity and a Smile

The wedding is under control, and it's actually fun planning things now. We're proud to have accomplished the following:

  • Got the band.
  • Found a dress.
  • Booked a venue.
  • Secured a chapel.
  • Signed up a day-of coordinator.
  • Selected a photographer.
  • Put up a website.
  • Chose the wedding party.
  • Reserved hotel rooms.
  • Decided on the officiant.
  • Hired floral/event designer.
  • Nailed down the save-the-dates and invitation concepts.
  • Set up registries.
  • Started tastings with caterers.
The best part about it all is that everything is based now on what we want -- not how others would do it. We're in control of how this party comes out, and so far it's turning out to be a good one. And a lot of folks who are out of town sound like they're able and willing to attend, which makes my heart smile.

Here's to keeping my sanity and having fun in the next months ahead.
