Me? Procrastinate? No....

Hello all! Since this is my first post and all I thought I would update everyone on the progress of Tyler and I's big day! The date is set, the festivites will take place June 9, 2012! The ceremony is being held at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church in Reynolds- calm down everyone it is NOT a mass...so I don't want any excuses not to come! :) We will then continue our day at University Inn- book your rooms while you can! I'm sure it will be the most amazing wedding West Lafayette has ever seen, some are comparing it to the Royal Wedding but I just laugh and say "what is there to compare?" We totally have it in the bag! I have picked out my dress, have yet to order it, but come on...did you read the title of this post? The bridesmaids dresses are picked out and my five wonderful attendents (who will be listed at the end) just need to get fitted at a David's Bridal near you. The groomsmen will be wearing tan tuxes- not jackets, just vests. But it's not as much fun to hear about the men so back to me! Our colors are turqouise and lime green, very bright and vibrant, like myself. And really that's all I have done so far...no worries, I still have 8 months!

I have been trying to get something for the wedding done each week this month, so far we have picked the MOH&BM dresses and well that's it. UGH! But, yesterday I did speak with one photographer- 721 Photography (absolutely AMAZING!) and got her prices and all that jazz. Today I called Christine's Photography (also BEAUTIFUL pictures!!) who is also a very good family friend and spoke with her about D-Day or shall I say W-Day ;) Now to just make a decision. This is probably be the hardest one of the whole process until we go to pick out the food.

Of course I already have a florist, lifelong family friend- Sandy Kenyon of Ivy & Violets in Brookston, IN. Let me tell ya people, the woman is amazing! We will also be ordering our invitations through her as well, she's a woman of all trades! And if anyone is wondering, which if you are we have some real problems, Abby will be doing my hair and Mom will be applying my makeup on W-Day. All the bridesmaids will be getting pampered and sipping on champagne at the beauty shop the morning of then the show really starts!

OK this is getting long so to finish up I will reveal the names of my 5 bridesmaids in order of appearance!

Abby Clark- Maid of Honor (sister of bride(Me)
Jackie Lantrip- Cousin of Bride from Ohio
Jennie McCollum- Cousin of Bride from Atlanta
Sarah Bailey- Cousin of Bride from Atlanta
Carrie Clark- Sister-in-law of bride

Have a great day Everyone!!!
