And so it starts...the new blog

I have decided to venture beyond the limitations of the blog built into our wedding website. While I'd still recommend http://www.momentville.com/ for its simplicity & good range of basic functionalities-- post pictures, imbed hyperlinks, play music (personally, not a fan of sites that blast music when I open them, but they have it if you want it...) & collect RSVP info all at no charge. However, I wanted a bit more flexibility for my blog. Now, let's see if I actually use it. :)

So, where did I leave off? We've gotten a few big items off the check list, which is good, because our wedding date is exactly 7 mos., 10 days after the proposal date. Which, at this point, means it is only 6 months away! No shotgun wedding scandals; I just didn't realize this was considered a short turn around for wedding planning. Especially one with a DIY/budget focus! The upside: less time to over analyze & sweat the small stuff.

Ok, progress report: We have found a lovely home in Lake Anna where we will hold the ceremony & reception. E-save the dates have been sent to key players. I am in talks with a local musician that I love & have even purchased the wine since Safeway was offering 30% off their entire selection. 18 bottles later, & I think we are set on that front. Three big wedding items down, only like 1,000 to go. Click here to read my earlier posts on finding a location & putting ONE DAY in perspective.
