Betrothed!!!

Well here it is! My first blog entry as a betrothed woman. Eat it up yum!

Joel and I got engaged exactly one month ago on my birthday. I've already gotten quite a bit started and the list goes like this:

Put together a Preliminary Guest List:
i think everyone is on there but Joel still needs to look over it and then we'll both need to finalize.

Contacted Venues:
We were just told yesterday that we will be getting our top choice venue, The Lilac: an old lighthouse tending boat from 1929 that we fell in love with last year on the pier.
We will be their first ever wedding. As it stands right now we are just waiting for confirmation of dates and details. Hoping for Saturday May 21st, 2011 or at the very least some saturday in the month of May. *fingers crossed*

Started trying on Dresses:
I've already been to David's and RK Bridal. I plan on trying on more dresses from RK as they are the best quality for the best deal. I have a strong feeling the dress will be found there but I'm gonna keep looking for another couple months till it reveals itself.
Trying on dresses has been such fun! They really feel like no other dress i have ever worn.

Foodstuffs:
My sweet friend Kadiesha of ieattreats.com and I have started to discuss a fun and relatively simple menu plan but there's a ways to go on that as of yet.

Style/Themes:
Inspiration board! Ill have to post some of the stuff I've found here but right now i think steampunk, meets nautical, meets aquatic meets post apocalyptic and a touch of old hollywood (in my appearance mostly). There wont be a specific theme but more just funky fun stuff that is very true to Joel and I.

We also secured our officiant! Our good friend Mr. Adrian Wilbert will be presiding and guiding us to matrimonial bliss.

Anyway, ill try to keep this updated as best i can for those who are interested, have questions or feel out of the loop.

I'm soooooooooo excited to party it up and marry my beloved!
