Wow. Hello.

 I feel back from the wedding-dead.  I think I forgot about wedding planning for two months and then realized (thanks, Rachel and Katie) that I should be doing something.

So. Big things. I was stuck in traffic yesterday for 45 minutes (eeh, three car pileup on I-5!) so I had some time to make a few calls and finalize a few venues.

I’m getting excited.

We officially have a French, five-course dinner for you.  We officially have a place to stand and profess our love for each other.  (Not to mention there’s a pond, and a view, and vines, and a gazebo, and stellar wines.) We are so close to having an event scheduled for the day before. 

So. Readers.  I have a question for you.  I’m planning a dessert and champagne social for the night before the wedding.  We want to get everyone together, but we want it to be really low key and informal.  I was thinking about asking everyone to bring their favourite board game with them.  The room we’re in reminds me of Harry Potter, so for some reason I’ve got it stuck in my head that this would be a great idea.  What do you think?  I can see our families having an awesome time with Apples to Apples.

Just things to keep myself busy and to chip away at the never ending list of wedding tasks. Jon’s been away for about a month and gone for nearly a month more.  I miss him terribly. Somehow the distance seems different this time.

big day!

The suckiness of being at work for 11 hours and the pinched nerve in my neck was balanced out by the mail delivery when I got home.

Shoes! 4 and a quarter inch heels in the most adorable patent leather. i’m … so excited. Kind of afraid to wear them out, lest I trip over something (which is inevitable) and scuff them pre-wedding. AND the book (see below) came in today. Very cool.

Well, i’m off to read about eco-chic weddings and pace the living room.

oh oh!

Progress, REAL progress!

The girls picked dresses! Woot!
I’m actually so happy that this part is over, I may jump around.

Thanks, ladies. I heart you.

Thanks, Katie!

Katie found this book:

I can’t wait to read it!

bamboo! / bambu?

So… picnic plates:
Bambu

The cool thing about these guys is that, while they’re intended for single use, they’re 100% organic, FDA approved for being safe to eat off of (believe it or not, not all plates are!), they biodegrade quickly, and they look a lot nicer than traditional paper plates.
