Lets Catch Up!
HELLO SUMMER!! Hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather (when it decides to show)
I haven't spent to much time on my blog over the past few months, I figured it was time to get the keys moving and get you all updated on whats going on! Life is crazy and its only going to get crazier...I looked at my countdown calendar this morning and was in shock, 150 days to go as of today...I cant put into words how fast this year is going by, seems like just yesterday I was telling everyone about our engagement and here we are, 5 months away from the big day!
These last few months have been pretty easy as we have already booked all of our big "to do's," and are now just looking forward to getting the little things taken care of. I am currently working on picking out invitations, (there are way to many choices!!) My maid of honor wants to kill me cause i keep telling her we have time, not to stress, after looking at the calendar today, I guess she is right, time to make some decisions! I am sticking with the "Simple but Elegant" theme, throughout the whole wedding, therefore choosing the invitations shouldn't be so difficult. :-)
I met with the florist a few weeks ago and decided on white flowers, but unsure of what kind. Teddy's Florist of Catskill, NY will be taking care of all of my flowers. Thank you to Teddy & Krista - You girls are awesome, I appreciate you being a part of my day and helping me out, I will never be able to Thank you enough. <3 I am heading down to Teddy's shop in a couple weeks to take a look at some sample bouquets, and finalize my flower plans!
Jimmy and I will meet with the Hilton in the beginning of August to finalize all of our details, menu, cake design & flavor, colors, room layout, etc. This will be our final meeting with the Hilton until the week of! August also includes going for our 2nd meeting with our wonderful Pastor Jackie....
You don't realize how much planning and hard work goes into a wedding...I appreciate everyone who is helping me out, Jimmy, my mom, Cathy...You guys are awesome. I am having such a great time planning this wedding and its only because these three keep me sane. :-) Currently, besides working on invitations, I am working on centerpieces, & wedding favors...
I am enjoying the calm before the storm, because I know come August...the Chaos will begin!
As it gets closer I will keep everyone posted on what is being accomplished...Be sure to stay tuned!
Happy First Day of Summer!
PS...For those of you who plan on staying over, be sure to book your rooms!!
<3 Jess & Jim
