After tormenting the lady at the Post Office for just the right “Save the Date” stamps… I decided nothing was quite right. So, Brett reminded me of my online photo stamp service from www.stamps.com. Brilliant. I had totally forgot about this!

Keep your eyes peeled for the Save the Dates with custom “Will you marry me?” Stamps! Wahoo!

With the exception that I thought the appointment was at 11:30 instead of 11:00, cake tasting went surprisingly well. Not being huge cake fans…. Brett and I had pretty low expectations. (more…)

Tonight, Renee and I played with some more centerpiece ideas (while drinking a few martini’s of course!) We combined flowers, rocks, and crackled candleholders. Sort of pretty. (more…)

After freaking out on Friday after the first 8 photographers I heard back from were booked—I finally got in gear to find a photographer. I have spent the last 3 days researching, corresponding, and meeting.

Today, I met with J & J photography and hit it off. I think their photography style is just what we are looking for. Not only that… but they were both friendly, inviting, and and comfortable to be around.

I am relieved I have someone booked, but also VERY excited and anxious to have engagement photos taken along with “the big day!”

Today Mom, Renee, and I went to the Bridal show. I wasn’t super impressed with the vendors (or lack there of), but none the less—it was fun quality time. I tried on a couple of dresses (blah), and we attended the fashion show which was entertaining.

Our Officiant is official. Miss. Whitney McConnell, my darling friend of many years has offered to be our wedding officiant. She will be ordained, and will be marrying us on July 7, 2007.

Tonight Brett and I met for drinks (to discuss the wedding of course!). We started coming up with ideas for the ceremony, how it would flow, and confirmed our choice of music was good. Whitney was packed full of great ideas and I am quite excited to have her marry us!

This weekend we are out camping at Fort Casey. Renee, Scott, Tyler & Carson were exploring the beach and finding rocks for the big day while Brett went scuba diving. Carson worked very hard, asking me, “Jenni is this one approvable?” and Scott dug with a stick looking for the perfect gem. Soon my vest pockets were PACKED full and I looked like I was going to have many rock babies! Cold… but fun, we have a nice collection!
