Wedding Plans

I figured I should maybe write something on here about wedding plans.  All things considered that is probably the HUGE thing happening in our lives right now!  After going around to a bunch of different locations around the Salt Lake area and after going to a few bridal shows we found the perfect place to have our wedding.  I love it!  It is called the INN on the Creek.  It is a really cool place and has a great ambiance.  Shortly After finding this place we found my dress.  I actually had found two dresses that i really liked but one had no sleves and the other didnt have a train.  So we went into Alysses Bridal in the mall and they had one that was pretty much the combination of the two!  I was so happy.  I get to pick it up this monday!  We have the cake and cupcakes ordered and flowers are all ready to go.  I wanted to use white calla lilies and a light green hydrangea.  OH my colors are kind of a pastel lime green,  a really bright pastel blue, and dark chocolate brown.   We got our engagement pictures done last weekend.  Dustyn, Jace's brother in law is doing the photography for us.  He is so good, I love what he can do with a camera!  I will post some of them here as soon as I get them.  The Announcements are going out today!  Yay!  The only thing I was stressed about is finally taken care of!  We are going to go get our pass ports taken care of today and our marriage license as well.  I cant wait for our honeymoon!  We are going on a 7 day mexican rivera cruise!  It will be so much fun!  Neither one of us have every been on a cruise before, we are both way excited!  I had two bridal showers one up here in Utah that Jace's sisters and mom threw for me.  It was alot of fun.  I got to get to know some of his aunts a little bit better.  It was also a little embarassing as well.  I had to take a rose and pull each petal of it off and for each petal I had to give a reason that I loved Jace.  For those of you who know me you know that I hate attention being on me and also hate equally as much talking about my feelings.  My head tends to go blank when put on the spot like that :), but it was still alot of fun and they put alot of work into it!   Then I had the shower down in California.  My moms good friend Elizabeth threw it for me.  It was so nice and a ton of fun!  I got to see old friends and catch up with a lot of people that I had lost contact with.  Once we got back from California (we didnt want to come back, the weather was so nice.  I didnt realize how much I missed that place till we went back) my mom and I have been non stop getting the last things we need for the wedding and reception.  I think we finally have it all.  Jace and I went and chopped down a quaky aspen tree for our center pieces yesterday.  Now it is all just a matter of putting it all together.
