Just got married now on to Seattle!

Erin and I have been busy getting things going for the wedding. Erin’s mom Lynn came into town and helped Erin find a dress and gave us plenty of ideas for the reception, flowers and etc. Over the weekend we finished designing our invitations and will be getting them printed up and sent out in the next few days. We also did our first marriage prep class on Saturday morning. Saturday evening we drove to Murphysboro and had a lovely dinner with my parents. We also got our bid for the cake (actually cupcakes) for the reception. So things are moving right along.

in the last week i’ve probably tried on more than 50 dresses & here are a few of the front runners, (minus the maggie sottero abigail, carla, & divina – stupid website). they are all pretty different. is it totally obvious that i have no idea what i want? feel free to leave comments.

Erin and I both have been busy getting ready for the big day. She and I went looking for suits for myself Tuesday night. Last night we both went to Belleville, IL to visit with my brother and his wife. Erin and Marie were tasked with looking for bridal gowns while John and I worked on getting the invitations mocked up. We also have marraige prep classes coming up and much more planning to do. We have however pinned down the church and are penciled in for our reception place. So progress is certainly being made. Stay tuned for more as things develop in the coming months.

dessert is important! joe & i decided that we are anti big stuffy wedding cakes. much more our speed is a variety of cute single-serving sized cakes which you are obliged to eat with your fingers. so wednesday we ventured to the cupcakery here in stl with bridesmaid extrodinare miss maggie snow for a sampling of their finest. sugar was exactly what i needed!! seven cupcakes later, we were more than sated and maybe slightly nauteous from all that buttercream covered goodness? but we had a winner. red velvet. yum!!
