Sunny San Diego?

So, it looks like we will be enjoying our wedding on the west coast in sunny San Diego!  Yay!

Here are some pics from the venue we have chosen...I am in love!

This is the terrace where we are planning the ceremony & reception

I am now working out details with a local photographer & coordinator.  Once I get all my details confirmed I will post an update!

So, it is all finally coming together, and I am so thrilled!  With the details falling into place, I can focus more on the house and just relax and enjoy being engaged and building our house! 

Setting A Date

So, we are trying to firm up a date_ I am thrilled, I won't have to keep saying some time in June 2011!!

So, as soon as we get it confirmed, and get the venue confirmed, I will post an update and some more pics!  But it is exciting, I found a venue, a day of coordinator, florist, & photographer that I like, and now I am hoping they are all available- and since it is over a year out, I am hoping it will work out!  YAY!

I Found "The Dress"!!

So, I found it!  I really really did!  It is wonderful!  I would post a picture, but everyone came unglued that Jaosn might see it, so I will keep this one secret.  But it is a mermaid dress, and it is GORGEOUS!  It is tissue taffetta.  So, anyone in Farmington that ever needs a formal gown or wedding gown, I totally have to tell you to go to Silk, click HERE to go to their website.   Jackie is FABULOUS there!  And if you can't tell,  I am way excited! 

I am also looking at a new location- the whole going out of the country thing is complicated.  So, I am starting to look at places on the coasts, and I have a front runner right now, so we will see how it looks after I have my phone "interview" with them.  They have been very helpful through email though.

Since we will no longer be doing it at the resort with the fabulous blue canopy, we are looking at possibly going back to either red or wine for the 3rd complimenting color for the wedding.  I love this bouquet...

...so it may become our color inspiration!  Any thoughts?  Black, white, & black magic red roses!

A Little More Progress

So, they have made a little more progress on the house- I need to upload some of the pictures, I know, but I haven't had time to download them yet.  Anyways, they are working on the foundation- and let me tell you, our house is not going ANYWHERE!  They are building a substructure because we have to level out so much, and that will be back filled with dirt & concrete, and then, on top of that, they will put the normal slab foundation.  However, Jason & I did get to stand at the corner of our "living room" and look out and see the views, and they were WONDERFUL!  I will see if I can get a good pic to upload, it was getting dark when we were there last, and the pictures of the view came out a little hazy.  Anyways, we are moving forward on the house, and I am starting to look at furniture.  The wedding planning is coming along, although, I am not sure how much more I cna do right now- it seems it is mostly a wait and wait game right now.  BOO!  I want it planned and done, so I can just relax. :o)

Anyways, I promise I will try and get some pics of the construction progress up soon!
