Plans so far

Well I suppose that if I wish to continue with this blog and keep people up to date I should at least write something else right?

So the plans for the wedding, we've established our date, no we have not booked a temple due other things that I will probably not get into here. But we will get our date. 

I've narrowed down some of the decorations as well as a location for the reception. We will be using one of my parents wedding backdrops.  Why not right? I mean we have them so we might as well use them.  They had offered at one point to make me my own backdrop but I don't really want to cause alot of trouble or add any unneeded stress into what everyone knows is already a stressful time. 
 Our colors are what I consider classic, we are doing black and white with red accents. This comes largely because the shoes that I have that I plan on wearing are already broken in and they are the colors.  I have a dress in mind, but I still want to go and try dresses on.  It's all part of the whole getting married experience right? Besides, I have to try on dresses that are similar to in style so I know what it might look like on.  I won't know until I have the dress in hand on how it will look since I will be ordering it from Hong Kong. I also can't show the picture on here because Chris will be logging in and I don't want him to see the dress until I'm in it, on our wedding day. 

So now I just need to decide on which bouquet I want, and that really depends on the dress right? My centerpieces, our invitations, guest lists and a photographer. No we haven't narrowed down food yet.

Is there anything else I'm missing as far as planning goes? I have to ask one of my friends if she would be willing to do my hair and make-up for the day. Oh and where I will be having my bridals done.  I would love to get Abravanel Hall so hopefully my dad's contacts can get me in. 

If there are items I am missing, please let me know. 

Thank you for reading.
