Update on Wedding Planning

Over the past couple of days, we have had so much progress in the wedding planning process! I'm so motivated and more excited than ever about all the decisions that we've been making. To catch you up:


  • We have our location- Sacred Heart in Augusta, Ga.
  • Of course, we have our date- 388 days away!
  • We have a rough draft of our guest list.
  • We bought our save-the-dates and are working to have those mailed by the end of the first week in December! Right now, we're collecting addresses for those which require save-the-dates.
  • We have picked out our cake and already have someone to make it.
  • We have a rough draft of our reception menu.
  • We have our ceremony musician... and I couldn't be more excited about who it is! It's a surprise!
  • We've started registering but so far have only registered for a few things at Williams-Sonoma.
  • We've already received our first gift from Williams-Sonoma... just a thinking of you from Madison's mom.
  • My dress has already been ordered and has already come in! In fact, I wore it for 2 hours yesterday! I am more in love with it than ever before... MAN O MAN.
  • We've already picked out our invitations.
  • We know what we're doing for wedding favors- but that's going to be a surprise too!
  • Did I mention that my guest list is alphabetized? OH YEAH, IT IS.
  • We already have an idea of the brides maids dresses we want... and a color scheme.
  • I know what my bouquet is going to look like... and those for the brides maids as well.
  • On December 8th, we're going to see Sacred Heart decorated for Christmas which is how it will be for our wedding- and we're so excited!
  • We have a wedding coordinator.
I think that's all I can tell you at this point. Other decisions are still underway. I'll be sure to blog another update soon!
