Changes!

I went today to San Jose to pick out lace for my dress. My mother in law is going to add lace going from the bottom of my boobs over my shoulders and behind me and then it will be the addition to the train, it is stunning! The lace e picked!!!

It looks MUCH better in person!! I will take a photo of it when the lace comes in. It should be arriving in 4-6 wks.

Our reception site

This is where we got our reception booked. Our church is on the same property. The court yard connects the two. I am so excited. We first looked at this hall a long time ago but because of the price, we thought this was impossible. Until we stated getting quotes from everywhere else. I think it's all the same except now, we don't have to get a limo and that helps the cost of the wedding all together.

Gabe and I went shopping last night. We bought our invitations and our center pieces. I just have to get the Gerbera Daisies for the center pieces, I will have silk ones shipped to me soon.

I have to do our save the dates, I have to find out when those should be sent. That I have no idea on lol

Anyways, the stress level went full force lol

We got our date!

Yay I am sooo excited!!!! Sept 19th! We found a different venue too. I will post pictures soon!!

Re-evaluating Things...

Well, tons has happened since my last post. The wedding plans are being changed at the last minute. Everything from reception destination to bridal party. Exciting changes though, so that's the great thing! Next week, we are meeting two different vendors for a place to hold our wedding reception. I am so excited! Bigger bang for our buck! I will update as soon as we know for sure and place a deposit.

Feeling better

After considering canceling our plans due to financial stress and economy, I went to a Wedding Expo with my friend yesterday and it was so fun! It was nice to do something with my friend, wedding related. Here is a photo we did in the booth they had.




So last night we decided, since we were in the wedding mood, let's go see bride wars. It was such a good movie! I cried at the end, it kind of had a sad ending, but a good one too!! It's a must see!

So Gabe and I have been planning center pieces, I'm buying my flowers in bulk online. We are going cake testing today!!! Ooooh I tried this really REALLY good cake, I need to find the name, it was AMAZING!

Well I tried looking for the name of the cake, but the bag is a mess.

We get to pick our date!!!!!!

If you have been reading for a while, Gabe had to formally get his last nuptials null and void. Seeing as they were both Catholics and were wedded, (although they weren't wedded in a Catholic church) there was still a process to be done in order for us to be wedded in church, well.... It’s been accomplished!! I am speaking with our church today to pick our dates of availability! How exciting! That was half the battle.

We have a song!

For a while now, I wanted Babyface but he wasn't into the song. I didn't think it was right to have a song that we didn't feel the same about. You know, when you listen to a song and you get goose bumps and your eyes get watery because you imagine yourself dancing your first dance with the love of you life. Well, we finally found that song!
Here is a video of the song from youtube.
