Check, Check, Check!

57 days!!!

57 days to pull it all together. 

Lots to do, lots to do!

I am checking things off this list though!

We have the officiant booked..... kinda last minute I know. But Marine and I were torn between who to use but decided to go with the preacher from the church we now attend and who is also a member of our saddle club so he knows us both well. I am happy with this choice :)

I have ordered the ring bear's boards I wrote about in this post.

{Date Girl I agree I could maybe have made these myself but right now I just don't have the extra time! If you were closer I would have assigned you to that task! lol}

I ordered 2 since I have 2 ring bearers. The first one will look like the above expect with our information but I'm not sure what to put on the second one...... Cheryl @ MyPrimitiveBoutique  told me she could put anything I wanted one it. Any suggestions? After the wedding I plan to hang them on the wall with our wedding pictures. So whats something that would look cute?


Went to Michael's last night and got the flower girl baskets.

Yes, I said baskets... because we also have 2 flower girls. The baskets were $3.99 each and I bought some ribbon to dress them up some. These will be cute and casual. I'm thinking of maybe painting it though and adding some ribbon or something. Something like this:

Or maybe leave it natural but dress it up a little like this except with my flowers:

We'll see I'll come up with something creative.

I also was able to find a guitar player! I haven't mentioned this yet but I am very excited! I have been looking for someone to play the guitar while guests are seated, during the processional and then during the recessional.  

Here are a few songs I told her I liked so that she could get an idea of what I was looking for.

Listen to the guitar in this song. I really like the upbeat temp.

Again just listen to the guitar. I like this song for when I come riding up on Miss B. I love the upbeat :)

Not sure yet what song I want to do for when I actually walk down the aisle.

I like this song for the recessional though:

Any thoughts? 

I have also ordered the champagne flutes ----- what's up with all the tacky, ugly choices? -- I went for simple flutes from Crate and Barrel.

Plain Jane, I know. I prefer to think simply classy.

I also ordered the cake cutter and knife. Again simple. 

I've got the garters, the candles for the mason jar's, the flower petals for down the aisle, and the things to assemble the programs I'm going to make.

Now 57 days to work on the other million+ things on the list :)
