Love is Sweet

I finally finished the banner for my dessert table (not like it was that hard).

It only looks kind of crazy because I took 3 different pictures and put them together. Another project to check off the list!

I'm preeetty excited, my fiance's dad is going to make us one of these signs:

It'll make lots of cute pics! Also, after the wedding we can definitely hang it up or display it somewhere. This one in the picture is actually from etsy . Very cute.

Hairstyles

This may have to be the hairstyle I ask for:






I also love her dress and earrings! These pics are from Once Wed, btw.

Honeymoon!

The flights have been booked! The weekend after the wedding we will be going to Paris, Torino, and Zurich! *Made completely possible by Bic's parents* We will fly into Paris early in the morning, spend the day, night, and most of the next day. Luckily my friend lives there right now and can give us some suggestions on where to stay and things to see :D Then, we will take the train (through the Alps!) to Torino, Italy where we will spend most of our time. Bic has a family friend who is letting us stay in his villa! Luckily, we will have a local to again give us some guidance on things to see before we take the train to spend one or two days in Zurich, Switzerland! All very exciting. I have never really been anywhere (I got my passport for this trip) so I am extremely excited about all three of these destinations! Hence all of the exclamation points...

Now let us all take a moment for some picturessss...

MAP OF OUR TRAVELS

PARIS

TORINO

ZURICH

Needless to say, it will be pretty depressing returning to Newport News!

First Dance

We pretty much have a song picked out for our first dance, but during the search I found a few that I really liked. Here they are!

Ray LaMontagne - You Are The Best Thing

Adele - Make You Feel My Love

and the one we agree upon most and will probably dance to...

Dave Matthews - You and Me

Comment if you have any other suggestions! These will all be on the wedding playlist.

Ties!

Well, the ties have arrived! The groomsmen will wear different colors...

and gray for the groom...

Catering

I hope everyone loves Panera Bread! Not a typical wedding caterer, I know, but we figured it would fit in with the rest of our wedding. We didn't want to have anything too heavy since the wedding will be outside in May - with *hopefully* warm weather. I think that salads and sandwiches will be a great alternative to a carving station or pasta dish. So, get ready for tables full of greek, classic, and caesar salads, chips, pickles, baguettes, and sandwiches! An assortment of Bacon Turkey Bravo, Italian Combo, Asiago Roast Beef, Mediterranean Veggie, Ham and Swiss, and Napa Almond Chicken Salad to be exact. I am hoping this will be very kid friendly, as well. Not to mention less expensive and Panera will deliver and set everything up for us. :D
