Day 218: Random Acts of Wedding Planning

FRIENDS!
It's been too long since I've updated... at least in my opinion :-) I really enjoy journaling on here, and I hope you're all enjoying it too. For those of you who read on here, but can't comment (due to dumb technical issues), I just wanted to let you know that if you set up a blogger.com account or a gmail account (www.gmail.com), it's totally free, and you don't even have to use it- then you can comment as much as you'd like. :-) Just a tip that may help some of you who have been asking. 
SOOOO..... the wedding planning journey. WELL, Monday we knocked out a lot. (We=Me and Mom, for this entry) I booked my cake with Metro Custom Cakes... MmmMmmMmm.... that place smells SO good. I could never work there!
I also found a ringbearer (or ring boy as we're calling it) pillow online, that matches the flower girl basket I bought last week at the party shop. So, of course I bought it as soon as I found it oline! I just love them. I also got the unity candle, which has the scripture we have based our relationship on from the very beginning, and have constantly quoted to one another, 1 Corinthians 13. Here it is, in case you want to hear it to make your day awesome!!

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Cor. 13:4-8

So yeah, Our candle has the whole scripture on it, and our names and wedding date underneath it. It's beautiful- and totally us!

I also found these cool "clings" to put on glass vases that have your names and wedding date on them. I bought them in our colors, to add to our centerpieces. I'm excited about those. Thanks to Maggie, who's helping me envision and create a very unique, beautiful, elegant center piece that screams who we are!!! I want some things in my wedding to be totally different. I don't want the WHOLE thing to be, because that's a little extreme to me, but I definitely want unique touches that people have never seen at a wedding before. So far, we're doing good in that department.

Jeramy and I officially started our pre-marital counseling with Sean and Barb Yost yesterday evening. I'm doing this post in burnt orange, in honor of the Longhorns (his favorite sports team), because he made it through the first session! :-) It was fun, challenging already, and cool- all at the same time. I've seen couples walk in and out of Sean's office for YEARS and years, receiving their Pre-M Counseling..... now that it's ME, it's almost an overwhelming thought! Crazy! We love Sean and Barb and they are dear friends of mine already, so to go through this with them and know we'll grow even closer together as friends, and potential-double-date-couples, is awesome!!! I loved sitting on their couch with my best friend next to me ;-)

I think that's about it for now. I have a busy Thursday ahead. UGH! Thursdays are always the longest day of the week for me. Good thing I love my job! (and I'm not just saying that... I really do!)
