Scope Out Venue Pics on Photographers’ Sites

Friday, July 16th, 2010

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but it’s worth mentioning again as I was looking at La Foret pictures online. I took several pictures of La Foret’s chapel and dining hall, but they don’t do the venue justice. When I was remotely scoping out venues earlier this year I discovered the best sites to view [...]

La Foret Update

Tuesday, July 13th, 2010

Yesterday was supposed to be when we found out our wedding date. I had Dave call La Foret to see if the calendar had been set, but the lady that we’ve been talking to wasn’t in. Looks like more waiting. Dave did talk to one of the other ladies there, & she said that May [...]

Planning Hiatus: Need a date!

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

So the planning has been on hiatus for awhile now for two reasons. We are currently waiting for La Foret to get back to us regarding what dates they have available. They are currently working on getting their annual clients set in their calendar before they can start booking weddings. It’s taking longer than expected [...]

Bringing the Colors to Life

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

I went to Michael’s earlier today for a frame. Of course I got distracted. I wandered around the floral section picking out flowers trying to pair up wedding colors. I figured now is the perfect time to do this since it will be this time next year when we’ll actually be tying the knot. So [...]

Wedding Dress: Check, Venue: Check

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

The Dress Dave and I returned from a very productive Colorado Springs wedding planning trip about a week ago. Bought THE dress (thank you Mama)!! I love it soooo much! Tried on many-a-dress at David’s Bridal with my Mom, sister, and MOH-zilla, and ended up going with…well you’ll just have to wait and see. Pics [...]

Leavin’ On a Jet Plane

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Tomorrow is the first of many big days in the coming year. Dave and I are flying off to Colorado to officially begin the major wedding planning. The Mother of the Bride/MOB (aka Mom), my Maid of Honor(zilla), and I have an wedding dress appointment on Thursday (holy cow!), where I will more than likely [...]

A Not-So-Traditional Wedding Website

Monday, March 1st, 2010

A classmate of mine is also engaged, and she introduced me to OffBeatBride.com. A lot of posts on there seem to be in the opposite direction of my wedding, but who knows what DIY projects I might dig up. Plus, they seem to have the greatest shoe ideas. Anyway, I read this post from a [...]

Quick update

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Sorry for not posting anything in awhile. Never fear, the wedding is still on . School has been all my time lately. Plus, wedding plans are kind of on a hiatus until I go venue shopping in April, which actually isn’t that far away. Yikes! Must book plane tickets. I’ll post more soon. Share on [...]
