UPDATES
Well, wedding plans are humming right along. We (by that I mean me, Kristy!) managed to procrastinate right on through the holidays into the new year. I had good excuses, though...moving, trying to sell my Tigard house, my grandmother passing away, and the crazy holidays while working in retail, of course.
Once the new year hit, sheer panic kicked in and I've been spending all of my spare moments working on wedding stuff. I was reprimanded by the bridal store ladies in January for not dress shopping 6 months earlier. They informed me that I would "probably have to settle for something off the rack." My response was that if we had a bridal dress outlet at Woodburn, I would have much rather shopped there, so "off the rack" didn't bother me. And I did continually check the BCBG & White House | Black Market outlet for months, but I didn't find exactly what I was looking for in my original price range. FYI, I did end up ordering my gown and with the rush fee, it should arrive exactly two weeks before the wedding!
We are currently working on all the pieces to the invitations and in true Kristy & Dan form, they will be one-of-a-kind, hence why they will probably not get assembled and mailed until the first week of March if all goes well. The favors, decor, catering, event script, music, and all that other coordination is under control. And I've realized that if I run out of time to get something done that I originally planned...well, it's likely that no one will notice except me. The most important thing is that we'll have all our family and friends there to share our wedding with us. Ok, who am I kidding, you're really all coming for the beer, wine and Hit Machine, right?
