If You Liked It Then You Should Put a Ring On It

Oh wait, he did put a ring on my finger already.

BUT, our wedding bands arrived a couple days ago from James Avery. And they fit both us perfectly. Both bands have a verse from Song of Solomon inscribed on them in Hebrew. They say: "My beloved is mine, and I am his/hers". We like that verse and the Hebrew makes the bands very unique. We are very happy with our choice.

Let's see, what other wedding stuff has been going on?

A parent from my daycare has been doing my hair for the past couple years. She told me that she would do my hair and make-up for free that day. Thanks Bobbi!

Joyce (my former daycare assistant director) and her husband, Harvey, are catering the rehearsal dinner. He works with someone who drives limos on the side. Joyce was so excited that he might be able to drive us for the wedding, for free. Unfortunately, we found out he has plans on our wedding day. So no free limo for us. Oh well, we weren't planning to have one originally.

I have my first alteration appointment on Tuesday. The hem is always the most expensive alteration, but mine is the perfect length. So I'll be saving a lot of money there. I know it has to be bustled and one of the hooks for the straps needs to be worked on. But there shouldn't be a whole to do to my dress. So hopefully it won't cost a whole lot.
Anne will be coming with me. We will probably start getting thoughts together for the wedding shower. Should be a fun time!

Our friends Joe and Leslie are helping us put the bouquets together on Wednesday.

And we are getting our invitations ordered in the next couple of days so we can start putting them in envelopes and get them mailed out to guys by the end of August.

We have been very blessed with how everything is coming together. Thanks to everyone who has been helping.

Take care everyone!
