I have been contemplating getting a videographer for the wedding. I know when we first started planning, I contacted a few and they were well over $1,000. It boggled my mind so, I stopped searching. Now, I have come across a few companies and contacted them. One guy said he would charge me $400 and that includes 6 hours of coverage and 3 edited DVDs. Sounds good to me. After reviewing his references and some of his work, I will consider. I would really love to have our wedding recorded so, we can watch it anytime we like to relive the memories.
On another note, Nathan and I looked over all the mens wedding bands online last night. They definitely have way more online than they did at the store. He found a lot he liked. So, we should be purchasing them soon! Very excited about that. That will be another thing checked off the list.
Tomorrow will be 9 months until the wedding. Where did the time go?!
Nathan and I got married 06/10/11. We got engaged on 12/26/09. Where has the time gone? I thought it'd be an awesome idea to create a blog so, you ccould read about our wedding planning journey! Now that we are married, I'd love you to take you on the journey where we begin our new life together!

Easing my mind!
My friend (and Bridesmaid) Brittani really put things into perspective for me over the weekend. While sitting down for a nice afternoon lunch, we talked about my upcoming wedding and her wedding that was back in May. I told her that sometimes while thinking about my wedding day, it makes me nervous. I have always loved being the center of attention. (being an only child, I loved the attention from everyone! all eyes were on me!) But, knowing that all eyes will be on me the day of my wedding, is so nerve-wracking. What if I trip and fall? What do I do with everyone staring at me as I am walking down to my future husband? She said, the only person she saw as she walked down the aisle was her husband, Ed. She said she didn't look at anyone else and in that moment, she knew everything was right. All the worrying about "is stuff being taken care of" went away. It really helped put my mind at ease. I am not going to worry about anyone else but, him. As I walk down to Nathan, my future husband, all will fall perfectly into place.

9 months and 1 week to go
Well, we are 9 months and 1 week away (Thanks Jaci!) until the big day. I feel we have accomplished a lot more than I thought we would. There is still so much to do but, we have great family and friends that will help us if we need it!
At 9 months and 1 week until the big day, we have the venue booked, wedding dress bought, colors picked, bridesmaid dresses bought, bridal shower venue booked, save the dates bought but, not sent out, wedding cake booked, photographer booked and almost paid off, linens booked and that is about it! I need to make arrangements to call the DJ we are interested in. I have talked to several officiants and need to call around to a few more. We visited 5 florists and have yet to choose one. We will figure it out!
In October we have two photoshoots taking place for our engagement photos. Our photographer is going to take us to a beautiful Manor House to take our photos. And, my friend Brittani who is trying to make it into the photography field is going to take our pictures in this beautiful garden. I am really excited. That will be amazing! We are both looking forward to it.
