This past weekend we got a lot accomplished towards the upcoming wedding. Our venue we chose has 3 caterers that we HAVE to choose from that they will allow in their facility. So over the last few weeks we got our quotes from all of them and made our choice. I gave Todd the catering department so he could have a hand in the planning and organizing. This Saturday we got to have a taste test of the items we chose off the menu and I’m so happy with our decision. It was so yummy and they were super friendly to work with. Believe it or not, it was cheaper to do a full meal then to do a bunch of appetizers. I’m learning so much about this wedding stuff. If you’re in the Dallas area our caterer is named Guess who’s coming to Dinner.
After we left the caterer we decided to go to Bed Bath and Beyond to register there as well. Did you know they even have China? What was even better is that we could order our exact china pattern that we found last week at Macy’s. I really want our guests to be able to use the coupons from BBandB so I’m taking many things off our Macy’s list. We also found our bedding set that we both REALLY liked a lot there too. Let’s face it, most all my friends and family are a budget so the least expensive option is the best. While we were getting started and they had us programmed in their system, I got so excited when I saw our names on the scanner machine. As the attendant was explaining how to use it, etc I said “ wait I want a picture of our names”. Todd was so embarrassed and said Really?! Oh well, I’m not letting him steal my Joy from this moment. The guy was really nice and I asked him to take our picture of us too. Todd has the same exasperated look on his face like get this over with. hahaha .
I’m done with registering and had so much fun. This weekend though is what I’ve been patiently waiting for: MY DRESS!!!! EEEKKKK. I can barely sit still from excitement and anticipation. I have 2 appointments on Saturday in Dallas at some bridal shops. My stepmom Deb will be joining me and a few of my closest girlfriends are meeting me there. I will tell you all about it next week for sure. Keep your fingers crossed that I find my most perfect dress that makes me look and feel beautiful and like a princess.
Happy Wednesday y’all!
