Wedding Bells Are Ringing!

I'm really getting excited as my wedding date gets closer! It's starting to feel more and more real. I got to try on my wedding band on Friday, and seeing it on my hand made it feel even more real!
The bridesmaid dresses have been ordered and should arrive sometime in October for the girls to get them fitted. I chose this dress in a dark chocolate brown color. The dress is really cute and has tulle that holds the skirt out. I can't wait to see my bridesmaids wearing this! We also recently went to David's bridal to pick out tuxes for Mike and his groomsmen. Mike chose a classic tux with a brown vest and tie. Dad has already gotten fitted for his and says it looks good! Now, I just need to find a flower girl dress for sweet Charlotte.

Kate, my lifesaving wedding planner tells me it's also time to start addressing envelopes for the invitations. I might need to practice my handwriting first! It never was my best subject and has only gone downhill since I was taught cursive in the third grade. Yikes!

Until the invitations come out, the place with all the important details is the wedding web site I created. Check it out at http://www.ewedding.com/sites/mikeandkristin2009
I can't wait for the big day!

  2. thanks, Dad! I was really pleased with how the ring looked with my engagement band. I was worried since mine didn't come as part of a "set" that nothing would look right against it, but this looks mighty nice (and sparkly!)

  3. Kristin,

    You wouldn't know it wasn't part of a set. I think they look like they belong together.
