A Wedding Update

The wedding planning is coming along nicely. We have a lot of the important vendors booked but there is still a lot to do. The officiant is booked, he is actually the first person we hired after deciding on a venue. Mitch married Nick's cousin was a total riot. We are not very serious people so it will be nice to have a ceremony with a little fun built in. My dress has been ordered since December (sorry no pictures, it's a surprise) and I finally picked out bridesmaid dresses. I swear choosing a dress for my girls was harder than choosing my own dress. Now we can shop for the fun things, like shoes. We have also decided on the entertainment and just yesterday I booked the photographer! Finding a photographer that fit my style but also my budget was difficult but think we are going to be really happy with the choice of Kate Leigh. Her photographs feel very intimate and natural, there are no awkward poses or forced smiles. Here's a few of my favorite shots from her blog. 













I have to tackle flowers next and to be honest I'm not sure where to start. I have an idea of what I like but I don't have any experience with vendors so I'm open to any suggestions you have. But please don't suggest Saipua, their flowers are gorgeous but I can't afford them. I also really need to get started with my invitations. I plan on designing them myself (as I did with my save-the-dates) but I would like to have them professionally printed. Aside from those two large tasks I'm sure I have a million other things to get done.
