It's time to start the hunt for a venue...

Since the last post, I've moved forward with my wedding planner, Ashley Baber.  I'm so thrilled to be using her to plan my wedding!  I met with her last night to start brainstorming on venues.  Monday, we're going to visit about three venues, The Wimbish House, The Georgian Terrace, and 103 West.

I've looked at The Wimbish House online a few times and it's gorgeous!  I've also heard great things about The Georgian Terrace and 103 West.  Obviously every venue is going to look differently in person, so I'm eager to get in the and check them out.  Hopefully Errick will like them too.

The goal is to have a venue booked and a date set by the end of the year.  This is so exciting!

And the gifts are starting to arrive...

Right after Errick and I got engaged, all of the cards started to arrive.  Most are from family but we've also gotten a few from my co-workers too.

We've got all of them on display on our counter at home.  I love to look at all of the warm wishes!

Halloween has come and gone...

Well, I can't believe it...Halloween has already come and gone.  I didn't think that Errick and I would be home in time for tricker treaters this year, but my company sent us home early to finish the day out at home to avoid all of the traffic.  When I finished up work for the day, I rushed over to get some last minute candy. 

Errick told me if we didn't give out candy the kids in the neighborhood would egg our house...hmmm!

So, like a good future wife, I went to the store and picked up a couple bags.  Who knew it would be so expensive for candy!

The kids came and went and before I knew it all of the candy was gone.  We had to turn the porch lights out at 8pm.

The highlight of the evening was watching my pretty pooch greet all of the kiddos.  She's run out and give them a few kisses and get a pat and then jump back in the house.  They loved her Miss Piggy costume!

As far as the wedding details, I've been working on our guest list...it's up to 139 now.  I guess I forgot my family and I knew so many people.  I think everything will come together just fine.  My mom and I are meeting with Ashley Baber on Thursday night to discuss my wedding plans.  I'm hoping she is going to plan my wedding.

Details of Thursday to come...
