My Bridal Shower!

So I originally didn't get a chance to blog about my wonderful bridal shower that was last weekend because I came home and felt utterly exausted and then woke up monday morning with a blazing fever and sore throat and so many aches and pains that I didn't know what to do with myself.

The theme was a princess and tea party and it was a lot of fun and it was above and beyond what I had imagined! Here is a picture of me cutting my cake, which was so good!

And I got so many nice gifts and people went above and beyond...It was so much fun and I am so greatful!

DIY crazy!

So this week since I am on vacation from school I have been doing many wedding related projects and have actually gotten to more of them then I thought I would. I made one of my two memory candles. I am rather happy with how it turned out. I love how incorporates my colors!! :)

I also got in my invitation which even though they were a hassle to get I really like. My fiance designed the monogram that is on the front of them and I really think they do a good job of setting the tone that the wedding is a very romantic and elegant affair! :)

Invite Rant

So I am about to pull my hair out with the invitations that I ordered. So my fiance and I went in to order the invites on December 20th of last year. Everything went fairly smoothlywhile we were there and we decided to get the proof of the invitation just to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. So the proof was supposed to take about a week to come to us but it took like 3 instead. To boot, the proof was only the wording when it was supposed to have all the fonts and what not. I complain and it took them another two weeks to get us the new proof. The new proof then did not have the actual invite page. I was annoyed because that is the first thing people are going to see when they open the invitation...

So it took one more week for them to get us the invite page. Once I okay everything I had made one change to the meal choice and the lady assured me that it would be taken care of. They told me the invites would be in the next week but they took two weeks to come in. Okay I was a little annoyed after all this but decided to let it all go. My mom went yesterday to pick up the invites and they did give us a 30 dollar check for the proof so that was nice but guess what?

The change they were supposed to make with the meals, its not changed. I am so mad! Now I have to argue with them again. I am so not a fighter and just wish this would work its self out. UGH.......

Parent Gifts

My finace and I have been trying to check some things off our list that we have left to do and some of them have been easier than others. I seem to be stressing more as things get closer and its crazy how time flies! So for my parents, who have done so much for us reguarding the wedding amongst other thing, we decided a two night stay at a bed and breakfast on the Cape would be perfect. They never get a chance to do anything thing for themselves so I think they would love the time away. Now that I have figured it out, its just getting my fiance to find a good deal and get it done!

We also took half of the men of the bridal party to the Tux shop to get fitted, so thats a half check! This week we will reach the 100 day mark! It's getting close!
