Wedding News!

Hey All!
Well, after spending this past weekend in Calgary doing ONLY wedding things, I have a few updates:
1. We have the invitations. I changed my mind from the original ones that we picked out- but this time we have the perfect ones. They are going to be beautiful.
2. I've decided on a decorator. We met with this lady this weekend who has awesome decorations for really really decent prices. She gave us (mom and I) a TON of ideas, and with everything being so inexpensive, we've decided to make a few decoration changes. All I can say is, it is going to be beautiful.
3. I've booked the florist. After thinking about the pros and cons of each company--I decided to go with the Florist that is right by where I live. They do one delivery (which will be nice for Lawrence and his family) and then my Dad or Kevin will pick up all the bouquets and bring them to our place. The ladies there are just so nice, and I know I made the right decision.
4. I also met with a Cake Lady this weekend. She is the sweetest thing ever. She is a little old lady who does wedding cakes out of her home. She listened to exactly what I wanted, and it giving us a really decent price, and she is going to deliver the cake and set it up for us. Like everything else...it is going to be beautiful.
5. We got the Bridesmaid dresses this weekend. They are GORGEOUS! Enough said. The girls are going to look so beautiful...I'm just so happy.
6. My friend Rene is going to be doing the DJing for us. I'd asked him over Christmas if he would be willing to do it, and he wasn't sure at the time. After attending the Bridal Show yesterday and seeing how expensive DJ's were, I called him last night and he pretty much said, "I'll do it call me in 3 months!" What a great guy. I totally trust his song judgement, and I know he will do a great job.
7. Mom, Kathleen, Alanna, Lindsey and myself also hit up the Bridal Fair this weekend. It was really fun and interesting to see all the different wedding ideas and such. We got to sample some cake, and watch a fashion show. By the end of the 3 hours I was, "tuckered" out. All the girls got, "I work for Bridezilla" stickers. Personally, I don't think I'm that bad...I mean, I could always be worse! Anyway- we all had a great time, and I walked away with a HUGE bag full of brochures and coupons. All in all, it was a great day.
Well, that is pretty much it. Things are really falling into place. I'm really quite impressed (as are a lot of people) that I have so much done already. But what can I say, I'm really organized and I'm really excited!
That is all for now. Keep checking back-
Love,
Erin and Lawrence
