6 MONTH UNNIVERSARY

getting married in exactly 6 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Florist!

I love this whole one thing a month deal - it's leaving the stress to a minimum! We found a florist who is just about the cutest thing in the whole world. She works out of Norman's Florist in Livingston, NJ her name is Linda. We walked in and she had a chuppah set up in the corner which we just fell in love with. It's Fiddler on the Roof meets The Secret Garden - lots of curly willow and berries and just nature filled lovely. What I love about her is how easy going she is - she's like whatever you want! We met with a few florists who freaked me out with their opinions and their pressuring - I don't do pressure *if you haven't already suspected. Anyway, we're going with her to a floral show to check out what I like so she gets a real sense of the vibe we're going for. So excited! Next is invitations!

GROOM

isn't he the cutest thing ever?

Bridal Shower Dress

I mean, how hard is it to find a white dress in May? Practically impossible actually. I finallllllllllly found one at White House Black Market - which I love. It'll be a great addition to the Honeymoon attire. Getting so excited. My aunts, grandma and cousins are planning everything - I have no idea when or where it is! So much love.

YAY PHOTOG

We are obsessed with out photographer, Jamie K. She is so talented and adorable and she will make our day so beautiful. Does anyone know a florist? I can't for the life of my find one.

The Photog!

Going to see a photographer today. Stoked about it!! She has worked all over the tri-state area anddddddd chose to get married at the same place as us. That is really comforting knowing that she's seen all of these venues (new and old) and got married at The Stonehouse because it photographs beautifully.

Found this all out after we called her!

OBSESSED

Cupcakes

is it bad that I made cupcakes so everyone around me can get fat?

Turkey Fail - Kinda

So I wanted to be a lovely doting fiance and get my guy turkey (he loves store baked turkey, but it was a Holiday so I figured I would cook). The vegetarian has seen mom cook turkey 100 times but something just slipped my mind while shopping in the supermarket. I decided to get the largest "young" turkey breast that Shoprite had and wanted to surprise Evan with dinner at 7:30 (like a 1950's wifey). The turkey wasn't done until 9:30p so he had soup and potatoes for dinner... but come on, for my first time ever- how delicious does it look! (poor gobble.)
