Planning

Wedding plans have begun! Because it's summer, and I don't have work or school, it's a perfect time to start planning our wedding.

Mom found a beautiful location out in the country. Jones Pavilion is owned by a couple that understands how expensive weddings can be and aim to help alleviate some of the cost by offering fantastic packages. The package that I chose includes so much!

It covers food, which will be homemade grilled chicken and sides, a DJ that comes with great references, linens, centerpieces, decorations, the rehearsal, and the officiant. The best part is that they allow you to go to a baker, have a cake made and the cost is included in the package!

Hopefully I'll have the money for the deposit soon.

Our colors will be black, white, and royal purple. I've already started working on Save the Dates, but I haven't gotten the finished guest list from his side of the family. Hobby Lobby had everything I needed to make them on sale! I love when that happens.

Our bridal party will be rather small. My Maid of Honor is my sister, Brittany, and my best friend from high school, Sara, will be my Bridesmaid. Rigo's Bestman is his closest friend, Bryan, and his Groomsman is another good friend, Matt.

There is so much to get done!!!
