SAVE the Date!!!


So I know its not official YET! (Because I don't' have a ring on my finger) But I just can't keep it inside anymore.

I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!! 09-24-10

I'm so excited!!! I'm going to marry the man of my dreams.

Now I know its a bit away..... but I have a lot of things checked off of my "to do list." I'm just super excited and I had to start planning. Also planning so far in advance will save us money and stress on the big day. Plus I've noticed that all the fall stuff is going on sale right now so its a perfect time to buy. Dale and I keep joking about "I thought planning a wedding was suppose to be a lot harder then this!" Its so nice to have such a supporting fiance that is willing to go to the crazy Bridal extravaganza and help pick out Bride's Maid dresses. Oh I LOVE that man!

Here are some of the things that I was able to check of my wedding "to do list."

Plus you'll have the inside scoop of what going on in the wedding before anyone else.

-Wedding dress (check) I thought I would have to try on a MILLION dresses before I found THE ONE... turns out it took about five dresses. The dress is totally me. I can't wait to show it off and if you come over to my house I might give you a sneak peek. It still needs some alterations but it seriously is the perfect dress for me and when you see me in it you'll know why.

-Temple dress (check) Now the temple dress was a little bit more tricky then I thought it would be. I wasn't planning on Dale choosing my temple dress, but we were Christmas shopping and took a quick peek at what they had. Dale BEGGED me to just try a few on. Which if you could see Dale's puppy dog eyes you would give in too. So I tried on a few No's but then came out in the dress that Dale chose for me and knew by the look on his face that it was the one. He started to cry a little bit. My mom thought the same thing when i tried on the dress for her on my birthday.

-Place (check) We are going to get sealed for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake Temple. We are getting sealed in the morning. I think I have to be there at 9:20 am. So I get to sleep in a little bit.


-Reception Center (check) Our Reception is at......WHEELER FARM! Its honestly the perfect price and location for us. Dale and I are both very country at heart and we know that it will fit us and our family very nicely on our wedding day.

-Photographer (Check) So my very FAVORITE Camille is taking our photo's. She is amazing and I love her work. http://camillegarrison.blogspot.com/ Check it out! She makes a rainy day look good!!

-Band (check) My very talented Uncle will be preforming with his band at my wedding. I'm really excited. His style of music and his expertize goes perfectly for what we were looking for. So get ready to boogie when you come to our wedding!!

Things I really need help with is:

-FOOD!! Does anyone know what to do? I don't want to do a candy bar or ice cream bar. I want people to feel like they ate something yummy, but not busting my check book either. IDEAS PLEASE!!!

-Florist. Does anyone know someone that won't cost an arm and a leg and that is reliable?
-Cake. My cake is very simple and I don't want to pay more then $300. Plus I'm kinda freaked that my cake will turn out like some of these cakes on http://cakewrecks.blogspot.com/
HELP!
-Lanterns- Does anyone know a sweet rental place or cheap place to buy some?


Hook a FRIEND up..... all you married people! lol jk

YAY!!! CONGRATULATIONS!! So excited for you both! Schmidt's bakery in Taylorsville is very reasonable and does awesome cakes, and they are SOOO tasty. Nothing worse than a pretty wedding cake that tastes like cardboard. :)

We're so happy for you!
