Tisk Task Tuesday

Countdown: 242 days

I had a very productive wedding weekend. I bought the other three zippers I was looking for and I went to High Fashion and bought my bridal loops that I needed for my wedding dress. I also had my two appointments with florists this weekend and I went with my foster mom. We chose to go with Sarah's Florist for the flowers for the wedding party. Chuck was very helpful and gave us a lot of advice.

The groom, 7 groomsmen, 3 ushers and 1 ring bear will be wearing hydrangea boutonnieres. The bridesmaids will be carrying a "salad plate size" bouquet of blue hydrangeas and I will be carrying a "dinner plate size" bouquet of blue hydrangeas with about 15 white tulips. Just to let you know hydrangeas are not cheap nor are flowers for such a large wedding party.

We are really excited though and cant wait to see the final product. Just in case you were wondering our location the Ayva Center is doing the flowers for everything else.

Tisk Task Tuesday

Countdown: 249 days
Last week I researched some nearby hotels for my out-of-town guests and found one that is only 7 minutes away from my location and is fairly cheap! It is the Holiday Inn Express on 59 South and Hilcroft. I blocked 10 rooms but am still waiting on the contract before I post to my wedding website to let my guests know.

Also last week I went to Hancock Fabrics and bought 3 of my 6 bridesmaids zippers for their dress. I still need to buy the other three and I am still looking for bridal loops for my dress. Hancock Fabrics said they have been discontinued so if anyone knows where I can find this, please let me know!

This Saturday I have two appointments to visit some florists to discuss options and prices for our bouquets and boutonnieres. I am going to Lexis Florist & Sarahs Florist. Has anyone ever used/heard of them before?
