Pictures!!!

I finally got around to uploading all my pictures onto my computer from the digital camera I got for Christmas. So now you can see the things I've been talking about and give me your opinions!

White floating candles in purple-dyed water. Right now they're in a tupperware thing, but for the big day they'll be in fish bowls. They'll also have wreaths around them. I think the water is too dark even though that's only one drop of red and one of blue. We'll have to make a bucket full at a time so it winds up being lavender instead of black.


Chair tie out of purple and white ribbon. Shown here on our tall-backed dining chair, but for the big day will be in chairs with shorter backs, about half the height of the chair back.


That's all I have for now. But at least it's something visual. Eventually I'll get around to making a mock-up of the wreath and candles centerpiece. I still have to buy the fishbowls though.

The beginning of forever

I'd like to keep an account of all the wedding stuff that happens between now and the BIG DAY. My goal is to use this to not only document the journey along the way, but to also ask questions and let you guys post your opinions. So bookmark this site and check back often!

Jason and I got engaged on Friday, December 29, 2006. We are planning an October 2007 wedding. More details later.

Out of all the things that needed to be done, the first official wedding purchase we made was centerpieces! I know, random. But we all knew that purple would be our main wedding color (at least I did) and when we found these floral wreaths at 90% off from Garden Ridge in purple, it was a sign. And to illustrate what an AMAZING FIANCÉ I have, I must mention that he drove me to FIVE different Garden Ridge's in this area just so we could have enough. I'm sure I'll be gushing about him often - I'm marrying him!

I don't really have a question off the top of my head so comment to say hi or something!
