Smile Jessa & Joe 10.18.2008
I figured it's probably time to start one of these! I'm exactly a year and a half away today. Most of my planning is done...thank goodness!

My dress & the girls dresses:



Centerpieces - we're using this vase....but it will be circus roses (tan outside petals, burgundy inside petals) in the vase:




There will be fake rose petals (color to be determined) around the centerpieces on the table. I really haven't decided on table cloth colors yet.....maybe ivory? Or should I go with burgundy? The vase (as you can see) is a rusty colored bronze.

Reception will be at Blue Mountain Ski Lodge. Here's some photos, not great ones though:








Blue Mtn included the DJ, cake, full open bar (top shelf), and a country style dinner for $60 a person. It is on a mountain that has plenty of trees so we should have nice foliage too!

I already got the girls their gifts. I bought matching circle necklaces from Kay Jewelers in white gold. They only ended up being $50 each after I used some gift certificates we had. I wanted something practical that they could wear again. The only problem was they wanted $30 a piece to shorten them to 16". So I'm going to check some other jewelry places before I spend another $90.

We have both of our wedding rings. I did post pics on the jewelry thread, but here they are again:

His:



Mine:






That's it for now....back later

Everything thing looks beautiful so far!

One question - arent you worried you might change your mind on your dress and the bridesmaids dresses considering the wedding is still 18months away??

Sorry to Hijack

Privateslagel could you post a little about yourself in bride journals? Maybe a little into. How old you are, where you're from, when your wedding date is..

We love details..

We'd like to learn more about you.

Thanks!

Nope! I'll be spending the next 9 months building a house...we start construction in July. We purposely did all the wedding stuff early so we wouldn't have to worry about it. So instead of picking out flowers....I'll be picking out tile and countertops.

Thanks everyone! Hopefully all the early planning will pay off later!

So I decided to change my centerpieces. We were going to have the florist fill the vases I posted with real flowers. It would cost us about $25/centerpice....so about $625. I've decided to use grasses and various Fall-like items (like wheat) instead but no flowers. It looks pretty neat. I'll have to take some photos soon.
