And the Countdown Begins!

Today, marks the 2 week mark for the wedding! In a week and a half we will begin getting the last minor details taken care of and welcoming people into our home and into town. It's hard to believe that this is already here. We got all the main things done and currently on have a few things left:


  • Seating Arrangements - This is actually very hard. Trying to keep people who know each other together, keep like personalities together, the correct number at each seat, this is very difficult to do.

  • Place Cards - Okay, this is very easy to do, but you have to make sure the seating arrangement is complete and we're still waiting on a solid answer from one more party.

  • Bridal Party Gift Wrapping - The gifts have been purchased...a few months ago, but we are waiting on one more little piece to go with them, but again that is something very easy to do.

  • Mauri's Wedding Day Supplies - Mauri has been a big help so far and she's going to be some even more big help the day of the wedding, along with her amazing boyfriend, Chase and another one of our friends. These guys will be the one's putting the favors, programs, place cards, etc (very partial list) out on the day of the wedding. Mauri will be a big "behind the scenes" helper for the wedding and I appreciate her sooo much!

  • Dinner Rehearsal - My mom has asked that we wait on this until she gets down here, just in case it costs a lot more than we originally budgeted for. She's trying to help with the errand running for us, very nice of her. I am very done driving into town all of the time.

  • Finally, the parties! Dusty is going to his Bachelor Party tonight while Jenn and I have a girls night! And then we a couple of my bridesmaids get into town we'll have a girls outting!

I am so happy we chose a place that had a wedding package with it. This eliminated many meetings, lots of searching and a ton of unneeded stress. It has been very smooth sailing, for the most part. Now we begin count down!
