As I said in my last post, we recently asked our friends and family to stand up for us on our big day. My baby brother will be standing up for us and we Skyped with him to ask since he was at school in Missouri at that time, though he is now home in Oskaloosa for the summer. He has his own personal musings blog and this is what he wrote our upcoming nuptials:

"Today, I got asked to be a groomsman at my sisters wedding! I am super pumped that she is getting married to a great guy! November 10th, remind me to mark that day down, as it is when the wedding will take place!"

My family is not great at communicating our feelings with one another, though as us kids have become adults we've gotten better. Charlie was also super psyched for us when I called to tell him Vince proposed and then when I read his post it just made me smile. Love you, brother. And congrats on finishing your first year of college! 

Why hello there!

It has been forever since my last post, almost a month! but boy oh boy have I been busy! My <i>fiance</i> and I have been busy dreaming up our wedding day and to be honest I pretty much have the wedding on my mind 24/7. Is this normal? I even wake up from dreams at 3am about wedding planning. We have set our date: November 10, 2012 aka we have 6 months to plan this shindig! Some people look at me like I'm nuts when I tell them. I have never been great at waiting for what I want though.
We will be having our reception at Laurel Manor and tasted their food this week and it is delish. Not to mention that the place is gorgeous and elegant and wonderfully priced!
I got all (SEVEN) of my bridesmaids officially asked and Vince is almost there! Our colors are charcoal grey, mustard yellow and cran/raspberry.
It is a but challenging planning ky wedding with my mom in Iowa, my sister aka Maid of Honor in LA and we are in Detroit. However my mom is coming up in a couple weeks so we can play dress up and send inspiration pictures to Kaitlyn so she can get to sketching as she's ddoing me the great honor of making my dress. How lucky am I? The answer is extremely, incredibly, and wonderfully!
I'm going to try to post more wedding info here, you know I will be doing at least a few projects. We will also link up to our wedding website once it gets a little more info on it!

How's that for rambling? And that's just the tip of the iceberg here folks!
