A Busy Saturday

Kevin and I spent the entire day last Saturday checking out reception venues. Unfortunately we didn't have much luck. The halls we looked at were either too small or too boring. But we were at least able to cross a bunch off the list.

We also started our pre-marital counseling classes with Ev. Peter Wagner. The program is called Prepare & Enrich, and it's really cool so far. It was a pleasant but exhausting day.

Other than that, I've been spending most of my time searching for the perfect shade of orange bridesmaid dresses. Love these...but the fabric and/or price may not be right:

The search continues!

Engagement Photos (1)

Brian uploaded a few of our engagement photos onto his photography blog so you can check them out! We'll upload our favorites here and on Facebook when we get the picture disk. They're just beautiful :)

Thank you Brian (and assistant Danielle for carrying the flash)!

Sneaky Peaky!

We should be getting our engagement photos soon...in the mean time, Brian sent us a preview to titillate our anticipation:

Yup, we wore Rangers jersey for a few shots. I'm pretty sure this will be Kev's favorite :)

How Do I Thank Thee? Let Me Count the Ways...

What a great weekend!

Saturday was our dinner date & engagement photo shoot with Brian & Danielle Fendt. It was a great evening with friends. And I'm really looking forward to seeing the pictures--Brian's amazing, especially if he can make Kevin & I look good ;)

We had a great family dinner on Sunday, and then (after a nap, of course) Kev & I spent the whole afternoon & evening writing out thank you cards. Good quality time together :) Kevin also gave me a copy of the engagement blessing video, audio, and the photos from Tim & Michelle. I'll post a couple here and a link to Facebook where you can see more.

A Picture Worth a Thousand Words

Tomorrow is my first official wedding-related appointment,with Jennifer Photography. We're looking for a photographer with an arsty edge...hopefully it won't be too stressful. Kev & I are total Facebook creepers, and we are loving these photos from the weddings of some of our friends:

    

(That last one even goes with our orange color scheme!)

Tomorrow afternoon its off to New Jersey to have our engagement photos taken by the highly-talented Brian Fendt from Reflections Photography. If only I knew what to wear!

Oh, and we officially have an officiant :) but we'll keep you guessing as to who it is.

Dreams of Cabo...

Kevin officially booked our honeymoon last night for Cabo San Lucas at this absolutely beautiful resort: the Hacienda Encantada. Daydreams of this place will definitely get me through my last year of college and help both of us through the wedding chaos :)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

A friend shared this with me and I thought it worth posting up here. Keep a tissue close by.
