Checking Things Off Our To-Do List


I just noticed that the last post was the one I published on September 12th - which is our official date!! Save the date!
Speaking of, Matty and I are ordering our Save the Date cards this week; we were going to pass on that since most people already know the date and have started planning, but since this is our wedding (!!!), I want to make sure we take advantage of all the fun parts of planning (ie. the cutest stationary company ever!). So friends, watch your mailboxes!
We are getting close to the six month countdown, and things are going smooth like nutella. We went up to New Hampshire a few weeks ago (our anniversary weekend) and picked out our wedding bands - they are so beautiful and the people that own the store were really helpful and not pushy at all. They are called Diamond Jewelers and are in the Rockingham Mall in Salem.
We have confirmed our Church and, well, Church (for our reception), and have our stationary picked out. I have spent all today while I am home sick picking out dress styles and my bridesmaids and I are going to try things on around my birthday (when prices are nice, and so is the weather!). Matty has been looking at suits and ties and is going to take advantage of Memorial Day sales and hopefully snag one up. And both of us have been hitting the gym and making sure we are going to be ever so fit for our big day!
The big things that are left are finding the perfect cupcakes (which may increase our time at the gym, a sacrifice I am willing to make), meeting with our DJ to pick out the music, and getting our engagement photos taken! Then to odds and ends like flowers, centerpieces, and honeymoon booking!!! All in all, it's been so smooth but also so much fun, for both of us. We get to plan a celebration all about our love - that's the most fun ever!!
Oh, and the picture above - it's us heading out to our two year anniversary dinner at the Top of the Hub after spending the weekend shopping for our wedding bands and celebrating a year of being engaged!!
Looking forward to sharing everything with you all!
