Wedding Post

Wedding planning is coming along, and I have discovered I have an approach: Scope the scene, deside what I like by process of elimination, then find it and buy it. I don't need to go to a gazillion places.

So far we have:

• Found a reception hall - The Inn at 825
• Defined a wedding party - Our three J boys and my sister
• Roughed out a guest list - If any of my blog readers want to come and you are not a sister, a college roommate (KTP, you count as a roommate even if we never actually lived together), or BFF Jenny, I will gladly add you.
  Established a color theme - Black and (off) White, accented by silver/battleship gray
  Purchased a dress - This one but in ivory
• Found a floral theme - Below
• Picked a cake - Pics to come I think
• Picked a florist - Kind of, I have one more meeting.

We are trying to decided about holding the ceremony in the Inn's Garden, or do something else. We are not going to wait for the annulment, but ARE going to get the paperwork in and have the marriaged blessed in the Catholic Church once it comesthrough.

Anyway, until I get a wedding blog/site or whatever, (which I may never do), I will post what I need to share here.

So....here are the inspiration flowers and shots of the garden I took today.


Inspiration Flowers, likely from a previous wedding, I saw at my parents' chuch.

The railing of the "guest suite" decorated the wedding today.

Arch "alter" area, dec'd out for today.

Hand rail into "The Conservatory" - the reception hall of The Inn.
