THE DRESS!

I have found my dress!


To keep the full vision for the big day,



I've posted a few of the details that made me say "YES" to the dress!

Pre-Wedding Events

We've been busy trying to coordinate schedules for the customary pre-wedding events: Engagement parties, Bridal Showers, Bachelorette & Bachelor parties.

The one I've been most anxiously awaiting is the Bachelorette party. A chance to travel with all my friends to celebrate my sendoff to singleness.

I've been to a few of these in my day and there are things that I want and things that I could leave behind. All said and done, the most important part to me is the location. I would like to go somewhere warm, yet accessible from all parts of the US.

A few ideas I had were Miami Beach and Austin.

Any other suggestions? Great bachelorette party stories?

The Wedding Singer

We've all seen the YouTube videos, popular movies and maybe you've been luck to attend weddings with terrible wedding singers, bands or DJ's.

Because we are a group of dancers and music connoisseurs, the reception music is a priority for us.

We like the idea of a vinyl DJ who can play our favorite tunes, keep the crowd moving, and serve as the emcee of the evening.

We've also started our song list and would love some suggestions...

Registering

My wedding felt official this week as I started registering for gifts.

Asking for things has always been hard for me and figuring out what to register for has been a big challenge.

I would like to keep things simple for guests and have selected the following sites:

Honeyfund.com
This great website that allows you to "register" for honeymoon items. Everything from airfare to room nights in a pied-a-terre to dinner out and museum fees.


Macy's
For kitchen needs, flatware and everyday ware


Crate & Barrel
For glassware, specialty gifts and accents


The registry is small, I would love some advice:
- What was your FAVORITE wedding gift?
- Was there anything you wished you'd register for but didn't?
