Information Gathering

I'm in a major information gathering phase. I love looking online to see all the different ideas out there. However, we're at a point where we need to make some decisions! (I'm not a very decisive person). My first choice for a photographer is already booked up. Wow, 13 months in advance!

So it's time to decide on photographers and DJ's. This weekend and next week I'm hoping to put together a comprehensive list of all the services these various people offer! Some of them will have set hours in their contract so it's hard to figure out this far in advance what we'll be needing.

But overall it has been so much fun. I've also done a lot of planning for my friend's wedding that I'm in this fall. I love that I actually have some ideas to help her out with. Weddings are just so much fun and such happy events!

Quick Update

I have been doing a lot of research into photographers for the big day! It has been great going through all the websites and seeing all the happy couples! Unfortunatly my first two choices are already booked for next year. Bummer! But I'm sure there is someone out there that will be perfect for us.

This weekend we're having a cookout at Pat's apartment with both sets of parents so they can finally meet each other! It should be a very low-key kind of time. So that's kind of wedding related! I'm sure there will be lots of wedding talk, which I love! I just wish I had more to tell people.

Of course I have tons of plans...but I don't want to give them all away. I want people to be surprised when they arrive at the reception!

Weekend

This weekend we're headed up north to spend some time with Pat's extended family. I'm really looking forward to it because there are a lot of people that I haven't met yet! So this weekend won't really be wedding related, but it will be family related and that is SO important to me! I am hoping to get everyone's names and addresses this weekend so I won't be hunting them down later. So that might be one thing crossed off the list!

My current project has been researching photographers. Pictures are very important to me so I want to choose just the right person to capture our day.
