I've gotten so much done!!
My MOH ordered her dress(it's the very first style I liked when I first started looking!)We bought our wedding bands today! (Fi got Titanium-I got plain Platinum
We decided we'll have something custom made after the wedding, I wans't able to find anything I loved & I'm too overwhelmed to deal right now)I took Nicole(FG) for her first fitting
Fi bought his shoes & picked out tuxes
Went to see the cottage set up for a ceremony
I set up our tasting
Made final appt w/ Minister
Booked our hotel in Amsterdam
I know there's more but that's all I can think of!

Re: I've gotten so much done!!
Richsbride,I'm dying to know whether the ceremony set-up is as beautiful in person as it is in the pictures. What did you think? Did you see the flowers provided?

It was setup with a chuppa instead of an arch, I thought it looked great-it didn't seem like they had anything extra-There are pics in the ofoto link I posted above. They had white tulle for pew bows & very simple decorations. I was only there for two minutes because family was there taking pictures already! I'm getting really excited, even my Fi thought everything looked perfect!

Re: I've gotten so much done!!
Not sure why, but the address isn't working.
Thanks for your feedback though. You are a tremendous source of information.
Aside from the Milleridge, so far I've booked the photographer- Ariana Studios, and music- Ebony Entertainment. I've also ordered my dress and that of my bridal party. This weekend we worked on the honeymoon but haven't nailed anything down yet.

Re: I've gotten so much done!!
That is my only negative w/the cottage. They didn't tell me that you can't do it there. We are going to have a dinner anyway & just do a quicky walk through & make believe we are there. We brought my step daughter with us today so she could see it set up, I was most nervous about her not knowing where to go! And i took pics, plus I got a good look at it so I can plan the ceremony music. We don't have a big bridal party & the cottage asks a million questions, whos who, unity candle, processional, recessional, ect. So I think they are pretty efficent.They will let you see it set up if you ask. If you have any other questions let me know! I love sharing!

Re: I've gotten so much done!!
That is my one negative also. I have two small 4 year old children in the wedding and I'm very concerned about how things will turn out without a rehearsal. I'll probably do the walk through at the dinner just as you are.Thanks for letting me (the board) know about the seeing the ceremony set-up in advance. I had no idea that that was even an option.
