Wedding To-Dos

Today was a fun day filled with wedding to-dos! First thing this morning I met Leah at Macy's at Memorial Mall to register for gifts. We registered for Joey and I's fine china along with our flatware and a few other items. This concluded our registration! Everyone can now find us registered at Macy's & Bed Bath and Beyond.

After that I drove to Baytown and picked up my mom and took her with me to look for shoes and flower girl dresses. My mom hasn't been really involved in the wedding planning so I thought this might make her feel better and it sure did! We had a wonderful time. I went to Davids Bridal to look for some shoes I thought I liked but once I saw them in person they didnt wow me. But I did find the perfect pair that did! What do you think about these?





I had to order my size and it takes 6 weeks for them to come in! But i think they are just so elegant and classy. While we were there I bought my garter set. I really wanted a garter that had some blue in it for my "Something Blue." What do you think?





Then we headed to Burlington Coat Factory to look for flower girl dresses. I chose Burlington's because they had the cheapest flower girl dresses. I think it is quite absurd to spend $100-$200 on a flower girl dress and I wouldnt expect anyone to pay that! So this is what we found. We had to buy four of them which was quite a challenge finding four of the same dresses in different sizes.






I have to say these pictures do not do these items justice!

Tisk Task Tuesday

Countdown: 200 days!

So last week Joey and I registered for gifts at Bed Bath and Beyond and we had a great time picking things out that we wanted for the new house. Yesterday I received our wedding guest book from Beau-Coup and I was kinda suprised to see how much smaller it was than I thought. But it is very white and classic!

I still have not received the rest of the addresses I need so I really need to get on top of that. Tonight Joey and I have an appointment at Men's Warehouse to look at tuxs. I have already browsed online and know pretty much what I want the guys to wear. I am looking forward to Joey trying them on so I can see what they look like on him.

The next couple of weeks Joey and I will be finalizing our inviation wording and picking out the invitation that we will send out!

Check back here tomorrow to find out which tux we picked!

Wedding Wednesday

So tonight Joey and I are going to register for wedding gifts at one of our two locations. We will be visiting Bed Bath and Beyond in search for some kitchen gadgets as well as bedroom and bathroom accessories.

Now Joey and I have lived together for a while now and have a lot of the stuff that young married couples need when they first get married. My first thought was to not register for gifts at all and just ask people for money for the honeymoon. My grandmother-in-law did not like that idea at all! She said that the older generation is going to want to buy us things instead of giving us money.

So with that we decided to register for some gifts. We are going to try to register for things that we will actually use and have room for. As you know we just moved into our first house and even though it is bigger than our apartment it is still not huge. It is only 1200 sq. feet and does not have a lot of storage space.

I am excited about going shopping for the house with Joey tonight and hope that this will be a good experience!
