A Break from Wedding World


"Are we going to make it in your blog now?!"

Sadly, I have not been keeping up too well with my blog lately, but this comment from Jillian this afternoon inspired me to write tonight!

Knowing February would be full of "final details" for the wedding, I made a point to add some fun with friends in the mix. I met up with friends from college this afternoon at The Melting Pot for a wonderful time with fondue and catching up on each other's lives. Rachel, Jillian, Honna, and I had business classes together and are now all part of the working world spread out between Rochester, Syracuse, and Binghamton. It was great to spend time together again!

This wedding is sneaking up on me and Nate in just three short weeks! Here's a peek at what we've been up to as we prepare:

  • Taste tested food with our caterer
  • Met with our pastor for pre-marital counseling
  • Built a wooden bench to use as our "guest book"
  • Showed up for a dress fitting only to find out the seamstress forgot to bring the dress - oops!
  • Received our marriage license
  • And made decisions about flowers, decorations, songs, hair styles, shoes, accessories, and the list goes on...
While I was at the Melting Pot, Nate spent the weekend with his brothers and the guys snowboarding, racing go karts, and chowing down at Dinosaur BBQ! It was nice to take a break from "Wedding World" and spend time with friends. We're looking forward to celebrating with each of them in a few weeks!
