A little wedding talk...

It's been a minute since I've been here and have just written.

Wedding Plans... 

We have made some headway! We have booked our photo booth, DJ, up lighting, photographer, and we are just waiting on our tax returns to book our venue!!! 

I believe we are doing pretty fantastic at this rate! I am hoping to keep this momentum up, so that my plan of having everything paid off prior to walking down the aisle comes to fruition! We've laid out a savings plan, are getting ready to open a wedding account, and I have taken on 3 extra jobs, on top of teaching every day, to make sure I have enough cash flow coming in to make our day absolutely breathtaking. 

We have a few more things to consider, shop around for, and decide on. We got a quote on a cake last weekend. And, let me just say... this sampling deal was pretty tasty! We walked away with a dozen cupcakes that morning to take home and sample with my mom and brother! :) haha... The cupcakes were too good to walk away from. 

I did get to go with almost all of my maids to Alfred Angelo and play in February! My original idea of THE dress has changed, and changed for the BEST! Man, I put that dress on and didn't want to take it off. My girls modeled for me, and we have decided on a color for now. However, as our date gets closer, that could change. At least we have a ballpark idea. :) 

I have been to several wedding shows and have enjoyed myself and all the yummy goodies that come with that. I totally did about 3-4 drive-bys of my venue's booth and sampled a good amount of their hor dourves that I have to choose from. haha... I mean, who else was going to sample all that yumminess that was just sitting there begging to be eaten?? 

What I have begun to notice is, I have a bit of a commitment issue! I use to be fairly confident in deciding on what I like and what I don't like. I just go after what I want when I want it. However, this whole wedding planning business has brought out the commitment-phobe out in me. 

I guess I am afraid of making the wrong decision. I am nervous about putting the big bucks out for something that might not fully meet the vision in my head. I think I can maybe attribute this to the overwhelming amount of options that are available. What happens if I make a bad choice on an option in front of me??  

I just need to get out of my head, and choose with my heart like I normally do. Choose based on how it feels and remember that this day is about Freddy & I above all else. :) 

The planning has commenced, and the struggle is real!

  1. I liked your article on wedding plans so I agree with your all points. I know that planning for perfect wedding is quite difficult and pressurized job. But, I would suggest you some San Diego Wedding venues for a perfect destination wedding. You must have a look on these wedding venues.
