Wedding To Do/Done:

I've been so busy with my job, I barely have time to blog anymore. I've also been so busy with the wedding stuff and my wedding blog, that I've forgotten to update this one.


So I'll try to do some updating now, just in case you'll have no idea what is going on with this wedding.

Venue/Catering Service: We had these two since some time now. We are bless to live in a beautiful country, surrounded by mountains and a big valley. Our wedding and reception will take place at the same venue, but at different "locations". Its a huge property, and we will have it all for ourselves...The view at night will be magnificent, and the food will be perfect and so delicious for the occasion.

Photographer: We have the best photographer in town. Her work is amazing and her personality is just perfect for what we are looking. We've already sign a contract with her, and I'm so happy we picked her.

Stationary: My sister, who is a wonderful graphic designer, has been in charge of all these stuff. She did the design for both the wedding and bridal shower invitation. And she is still working on our table numbers, escort cards, and a few more things. We already have the bridal shower invitations and they are just so beautiful...

Flowers: This one was a great find. My future father in law has dealt with this flower vendor for a lot of years now, and we decided to hire them for our wedding. Well we got all the flowers we need at a great price!!

Wedding gown: This was the first thing I bought for our wedding. I was very lucky to buy it while we were in Miami, and I got the best wedding gown at a great, affordable price. Since my dress was a great find, I also bought the matching veil and tiara.

Centerpieces: We looked for weeks on the internet for different ideas for these centerpieces. We knew we wanted something nice, but affordable, and that we could probably made these to save some bucks. And so we did, we bought the vases and we will be making these ourselves.

We are still missing some important things, but I'm very confident what we will take care of these things pretty soon.

Cake: We already have our baker, and the picture of the cake we want on our wedding date, we just need to schedule an appointment with them...Hopefully this weekend we can get something done.

Music: We got two vendors we like, we just need to make our mind, and sign a contract with one of them.

Rings: Very important!! We haven't even started looking for these. But we will since this will be taking most of our budget!

I believe I'm probably missing a few things here on this list, but so far these are the big ones...

Double Digits!!

That's right!! Double digits!! I can't believe it, I was walking around the study room when I took a look at our wedding ticker....99 days til our wedding!!


And I thought I would share a picture of my lovely baby girl Gia! This is her with her cast, while she is not supposed to jump to our coach or bed, cause she is supposed to be resting, she still finds a way to get herself on it and look nice for pictures!

I have more good news for this week. Very excited and so very proud of my soon-to-be-husband, he applied for a higher position inside his department, and competed against a bunch of other qualified candidates. But it was officially announced yesterday that the new position was given to him, FI will start this new challenge this coming monday!! Hegot a great salary increase along with lots of other responsabilities, but he is pleased and happy that his got his supervisors support.

On Puppy news! My baby schanauzer had surgery a month ago. She was at the doggie hospital for 5 days, and we were allowed to take her home after that. Yesterday we took her back to the vet, for a follow up, and we are so happy because the procedure worked out perfectly and she will soon recover from it all.

On Wedding news! We have signed contracts with our photographer, and florists. I made an appointment with our bakery, both Ale and I have picked a wedding cake we both love and can't wait to see it on our wedding day! We have two great music choices and very affordable too, we will be selecting one this or next week. There is still too much stuff to organize, do, and buy but we are getting there...
