Moments of Musing

Our Wedding Website

Filed Under: wedding planning //

This Saturday was one year from my and T’s wedding, which means there’s currently less than a year to go!
 
Less than a year of planning to go.
 
Less than a year of being engaged.
 
Less than a year until we’re Mr. and Mrs.!!!
 
Originally, I wanted to wait until we picked one of the two venues we’re choosing between to post the countdown and our website to social media. Since, however, we’re having it away from T’s hometown, we want to give them enough notice. And I’m in love with the site, so why not?
 

 
For privacy reasons (do bloggers even have privacy?), I won’t post it here but I will give you the site if you ask!
 
 

Wedding Planning Logistics

Filed Under: wedding planning //

Happy Wedding Wednesday! 

Before we were engaged, Timmy and I would talk about the logistics of our wedding but now that we’re actually engaged, we have decisions to make!


Date?
This was literally the first thing (after being told “Congratulations!” of course) that we were asked when announcing our engagement. Timmy’s EAS is next summer so that throws a curveball into things. As of now, we’re thinking sometime in November 2014. 

Location?
Timmy is from Michigan and I’m from NYC. We’ll be living together in Chicago at the time of our wedding. I have a close knit, large family back home and he has some family in NY so we are having the wedding in NY or NJ — and having engagement photos taken in Michigan and/or Chicago. 

Planning while in a LDR?
We will have to divide some duties and work together on others. I’ll be in charge of the super girly things — my dress and the bridesmaids dresses. He will be in charge of his tux and the groomsmens tuxes. We will confer about the color scheme, save the dates, invitations, venue and decorations… He will hopefully be on leave during the holidays(!!!) so we can get some things done then. 

Wedding Party?
We already know who our MOH (my cousin who’s like my sister) and Best Man (Tim’s younger brother) will be and actually celebrated with them in Vegas. My younger brother will also serve as my Man of Honor. Regarding the other members of the party, we will most likely make decisions during Timmy’s leave and ask them shortly afterwards. 

Honeymoon?
We’d love to go to Bora Bora but we are open to other similar locations, as well. Our only requirement is that it be much more relaxing than not. As long as we’re together I know it’ll be blissful.
