It's almost over...

It's kind of weird to think that I'll be getting married about less than 65 days and also sad because I feel as if I planned my whole wedding in one month. Our location has been picked, we confirmed out reception details, the bridesmaids have their dresses, we're going to order tuxes this weekend, I’ve been in communication with some people about flowers, and just bought knickknacks this week: bubbles for our departing, flower baskets, unity candle, etc.

Don't get me wrong, I know there is a ton more to do, but all the "big" and "fun" part of planning my wedding seems to be over. Now we just have to run around and get things like our marriage certificate and Jonny's green card ;).

Again, to make sure everyone knows that I'm more excited to be married to Jon than my wedding day, I am. BUT, that's not to say that I haven't thought about my wedding day FOR EVER, because I have (I'm totally one of those girls even if I don't seem like it). I mean, I'm only doing this once, right? (and I don't say that as an ignorant Christian). I only get to plan my wedding one time and it's sad to think that it's almost over. I guess it will make more sense if you know that I love to plan events. This is just like the ultimate one!

Does this make sense to anyone? (All the girls reading this say "YES" and the guys are wondering what the heck I'm talking about).


On another note, I can't wait to walk down the aisle and see Jonny standing on the other side. You know, he's the first person I could ever see on the other side before? Yeah, I've tested some other people (in my mind), but none passed, not until Mr. Jon Parker!



So I know I'm not the only one who has ever had this fear, but I'm afraid I won't cry and then all of the sudden, that's going to suggest to everyone else that I don't really love Jonny. I know, the pressure us girls put on ourselves. Well I was listening to the song that I want to walk down the aisle to the other day and my eyes teared up. Ha, I hope it happens on May 29th!! :)

Bubbles

Today I took Avery and Kirby to Party World with me to pick up their flower girl baskets, the unity candle, and bubbles for the guests to blow at the end of our reception.

I need your advice about the bubbles... I would love to have a picture of Jonny and I coming out the chapel into a tunnel of people blowing bubbles- but how does that happen if Jonny and I are the first two people that come out? There is a side room in the chapel that we could go into rather than out of the building, but then what? Get all of our guest outside to blow bubbles just for a picture? Haha. That would be funny.

• Maybe we could just have the wedding party blow the bubbles and reenact coming out to the chapel?

Again, if you have any ideas let me know.

Going to the Chapel of Love

WE'RE ENGAGED!!

When did it happen? Jonny proposed on February 25 at Del Mar Beach.

When are we getting married? We're getting hitched on May 29th of this year and the wedding planning is coming along nice and smoothly... Not too many glitches, which is great.

What am I really looking forward to? Wearing my wedding dress!

I've been looking at billions of different hair styles, but I think I have a consistant theme for the type of style I like.

I just placed my first bid on eBay for a beautiful ivory flower for my hair.

Lets hope that 1) I get it and 2) that it is actually pretty...

I picked out my bridesmaid dresses a couple weeks ago and I'm happy with them. Itried to copy a picture ofthem to post, but I can't copy the image. If you're interested, look at David's Bridal, style number 8585 (Black).

Stay tuned for more details as they come.
