It's all starting to come together...

Well, it's definitely been way too long since the last time I wrote!!!  I think the last time I wrote anything was right before the new year and we had just booked our venue, 103 West.  Lots has happened since then.

Right before Christmas, I chose all of my bridesmaids.  I have a total of 5: Mallory, Tu-Khoa, Devon, Amy, and Erin.  I found this great idea on Pinterest (my latest obsession) and it was a clever way to ask your friends to be your bridesmaids.  What I did was bought each girl (that was over 21 of course) a bottle of wine and I made a tag and tied it to the neck of the bottle.  On the tag it said, "As I prepare for the day that I'm to be a bride, it would mean the world to have you sipping by my side."

They turned our beautifully!

All my bridesmaids have bought their gowns and are awaiting their arrival.  Errick's been a little slower at choosing his groomsmen.  He's only got 2 selected so far.  The anticipation is killing me!!!

As far as the big day goes, I've chosen my photographer.  It's a company called Alea Moore Photography.  They are actually the only photographers that I met with.  I instantly fell in love with their pictures and am so excited to have them be part of my wedding.  They will be shooting our rehearsal dinner and the big day.

Last Friday, I met with a lady named, Lisa that does custom invitations.  Her company is called, "Paper Daisies."  Her invites are phenomenal...When I met with her, I got to look through a ton of options and we were able to pick and choose from each one to create Errick and I's invitation's.  She is going to be mailing us a sample so we can see what they will look and feel like.  I love the idea of being able to see the product and feel it before I buy it.  It only takes 2 weeks to get the invitations...I'm counting the days!

In the next couple of weeks I'll be meeting with the florist too.  I did decide that I wanted Hydrangea's.  They are such a full flower and I love how they look.
I'll keep you posted on how it all goes...
