It’s All In The Details

Last week, I met with The Grove to start nailing down some of the details for the wedding. They were really super accommodating and really easy to work with. They were good with all of our decorating ideas and they agreed with our layout that it would work and were even making suggestions on where things should be before I was – and they were the same ideas as mine.

So, layout, menu, bar and timing are all in place. Hotel is booked. We know where we are having the rehearsal dinner – we just need to book it.

The only thing I have left to figure out is the DJ and the cake.

Now, to actually make all the things I need to make. What are we designing? Oh, just the invitations, table names, escort cards, bouquets, centerpieces, hairpieces, and the ceremony “alter”. OH and ceremony decorations that include about 100 mason jars.

Yeah, that’s it.

Who wants to help?! 🙂

ALSO, speaking of details…

We got engaged at Brennan’s after it reopened following the devastating fire during hurricane Ike.  I tried describing the atmosphere there, but it you really have to see it. It’s so pretty without being totally over the top. Bathed in ivory, gold and brown and simply gorgeous.

Tonight, we were researching restaurant websites for a blog Mike’s writing for work and I pulled their site up. They have some new pictures up. THIS IS WHERE WE GOT ENGAGED. It’s the chef’s dining room. We sat at one of the tables with the wing-back chairs. Make sure you click the picture to really get the details. The even have throw pillows to make sure you are all comfy in those big ol’ chairs.

285 days and counting!!
