Activity for Dawn

My sister just called me and said that after attending my wedding on Saturday she now wants me to plan her wedding for her. She said she is thinking 2/10/13 is when she wants to be married and wants a garden wedding (can do in AZ). She has not told...

Today started out a little slow. We had planned to be at the church by 9 am to finish up all the last minute details but didn't get there until 10:15. Everyone was already there getting things done for me so I didn't need to worry. Our wedding was...

It's crunch time and I am actually calm. People at church last night kept telling me that I am the calmest bride they have ever seen. LOL We just picked up the tux for FH and my son. They both look adorable in them. Word of advice, try everything on....

There are 12 days left before the wedding and I finally decided on the music for the reception. There is such a diverse mix of guests that I had almost decided to have no music. Christmas is right around the corner and it is my all time favorite time...

As the days grow ever closer to our wedding day, it seems as though FH and I are getting more and more snappy with each other. We have 17 days left and the past 2 days have been horrible. I am almost ready to go on a honeymoon BY MYSELF. Anyone else...

I am finally in the teens as of today. 19 more days and I will be married to the love of my life! I can't wait. I feel like a little girl waiting for something big to happen-my heart is racing and I am getting all giddy from the excitement! Just...

I sent out invitations for 200 people to attend the wedding and reception. I enclosed stamp addressed response cards to make it easier for people to just check a box and mail them back. Takes less than a minute to open the invitation, check the box...

We met with the officiant who will be doing our wedding. We discussed everything and he gave me the most awesome suggestion for FHs spending issues. FH thinks if there is money in the bank then it is there to spend. Our officiant suggested 2 separate...

Ok, so I get it that it is FHs wedding too, but the invitations have already been sent out and most of the plans are already finalized and FH tells me today that he wants to invite more people to the wedding/reception. These are people he has had...

I have given up on the idea of having a chocolate fountain at the reception because of all the mess and the fear of children running by with dirty hands and dipping into the chocolate. But, I still like the concept of fruit dipped in chocolate....so...

Started getting RSVP's already. 11 out of 193 guests have said they are coming. I know, it's not many yet, but it's a start!!!!

Both FH and I are older so making babies is out of the question. FH and 6 of my 8 children are adopted so adoption is a happening thing in my family. FH and I want to add one more child to our household, making that child OUR child together. FH is...

FH and I finished putting together our invitations today. Things are starting to be checked off the list of things at an amazing rate of speed. It starting to feel like this wedding will happen and happen soon!!! Can't wait. FH can't wait either and...

I have been searching the internet looking for poses that I want the photographer to take for our wedding. Does anyone know where I can find some ideas of how FH and I should pose?

I really thought it would be so cool to have a chocolate fountain at the reception. Yesterday FH and I were at a lunch buffet that had one. He told me to go try it out and see how I liked it. I DID NOT. Even with me trying so hard to be neat with the...

Ok, I have 60 days left and I am just wanting it to be over and done with. Almost everything is finished but there is still a lot that needs to be done (well, maybe not that much is left) and I don't want to do any more planning for the wedding or...
