Dress shopping of course!

Booking the HM!
And basically being told by my family that whatever I want, I should have (for the wedding)! I've never been told that before!

Getting things done!

No, really, I really enjoyed picking out my jewelry and accessories at Thomas Knoell, I was excited about dress shopping, and when we had our engagement shoot.

definitely planning and booking the honeymoon! Is it normal that I am looking forward to the HM more than the wedding?

Also booking the ceremony/reception site...my dream place!

Dress shopping, even though it took me forever to decide.
When I first got engaged, and went to look at halls. It was just so exciting.

Hm shopping, how did I forget!

The aesthetics. I am a VERY visual person.I knew my dress would be amazing but it was an easy choice. I know the food is good but what I was really most excited about was designing the most special day in my life. I chose the flowers. I chose the decorations I chose the colors. I just cannot wait to see how it all gels. I visualized this day for a long time!

Re: What has been your favorite thing for planning the wedding

I'm kinda with Lauren on this one...I have enjoyed executing the 'vision.' I didnt know I had one, but once I got my gown, all the others details seem to be falling in place around it.

I def loved Dress shopping.
Everytime I talk to John from Flower Michele, I get so Excited!
My newest vendor rave is the place we're getting our invites from. So nice, talented and patient!

I love working with vendors who can narrow in on your ideas and get really excited about them.

Re: What has been your favorite thing for planning the wedding

Dress shopping was fun early on, then it got frustrating. My favorite part was getting to spend extra time with my FH and his great family.

Re: What has been your favorite thing for planning the wedding

The whole thing has been very stressful and we've had our worst issues and fights in the past 6 months. Planning ***** when you are in school and working and trying to do it in 6 months!

We had fun planning the honeymoon- which is almost completely booked- just the hotel in Bangkok (4 nights in Hong Kong and 5 in Bangkok- not typical but VERY us!).

We had fun picking our music too- the guys at Bravo are great and fun.
