Hey ya Christy! I can believe it! Your at the two month mark! WOO HOO you go girl! I just called them today to make a private appointment for a tasting. They were really sweet about it too! I have missed you guys! Not sure if you read the NWR board but I posted pics of FH and I's house that we just bought! I have been so consumed with that process that I could not even get on the boards! I think I had the DT's from the absence! How are your plans going?

I know, I have been contacting them like crazy. NOw that it is getting closer they get back to me a lot quicker, which makes me happy! Have you gotten many responses back yet?

Re: Hi Debbie08

I got back 6 responses so far, only one 'no'! It is so much fun running to the mailbox for responses. When are you mailing out your invites?

WOW DEBBIE!
Your house looks great. I would love an invite to go swimming in that pool one day! LOL
What an exciting time for you, to be so close to the wedding and now own a home. I am so happy for you! I cant imagine how you pulled that off while planning a wedding! Best wishes to you and your hubby!

Re: Hi Debbie08

It was not easy...we have the appraiser and the inspector coming in this week, so I am a little nervous about that! We are supposed to close on March 31st so it will be nice to move there slowly and not feel pressured. Our less is not up until June so we will move some stuff over before the wedding and offically move in when we return for our hm. Anyway, what do you have left to do with only two months left?

Re: Hi Debbie08

We have to make our CD's and place card candles...FUN FUN FUN
Plan some type of rehearsal dinner (where did you pick by the way?)
I have to engrave the groomsmens flasks and wrap all gifts
seating arrangements
choose flowers
choose music for string trio and dj
plan our ceremony with priest....
the list goes on. I wish I could take a leave from my job to get wedding stuff done! LOL

Re: Hi Debbie08

We ended up booking at Danfords Inn in Port Jeff. The hotel is going to provide transportation for all of our OTG guests so that works out well.

Re: Hi Debbie08

so you are doing the rehearsal dinner at danfords, as well as using it for your hotel block?
May I ask how prices were there?

Re: Hi Debbie08

We are using the Holiday Inn Express Stonybrook for our guests. For the rd, the cost was 27.95 pp.

Re: Hi Debbie08

That is very reasonable for danfords...hmmm someplace to consider

Re: Hi Debbie08

I thought so to...to be honest with you, I called about 20 places in the area the lowest price I got is 23.95 and the next one was 27.95. We got a room that can fit about 50 people and it overlooks the sound. The dinner is a sit down and I will pick the menu when I am up there in April. If you want unlimited wine and beer it is an additional 12 pp. A 19% service charge is included and you do not have to tip anyone. The milage from the hotel is about 5 miles.

Re: Hi Debbie08

Thanks Debbie, when I call FH tomorrow I am going to tell him about danfords. We are paying our selves, so I have to see what the budget allows, but boy would I like that a lot!
