Blessed Weekend :)

This weekend was AMAZING! I had been looking forward to having a weekend off for a couple of weeks and it turned out to be everything I imagined! My weekend started on Good Friday since the office was closed for the holiday weekend. I spent Friday morning sleeping and then had a productive afternoon shopping for wedding stuff. I was on a quest for flowers and really just getting ideas for wedding decor more than anything but ended up find invitations that matched our colors perfectly and getting an amazing deal on them too. Invitations and response cards purchased-check.


Saturday morning I had an appointment at David's Bridal at 10 a.m. The morning started a little earlier than that though with some friends at a local cafe for breakfast. After a delicious egg white omelet and chocolate peanut butter pie we were on our way the David's. My Mom and Grandma met us there too. I told Stephanie who was my consultant what dresses I thought I liked from looking at the website. She pulled a lot of dresses and I started trying them on. The second one was "the one". Granted there were hundreds...okay, several dresses in between the second one and the time I put it back on again and said "this is it". I had no idea how much work it is to put those dresses on and off...Keri and I worked up a sweat!


It feels great to have found my dream dress and ordered it. I am so anxious for it to come in so we can begin alterations :) On top of finding my dress, we also got the bridesmaid dresses picked out and 2 have been ordered. The jr. bridesmaid dresses and the flower girl dresses were also picked out and finalized. Thinking back on Saturday, I am not sure how we made all those decisions but it feels great to be this far into planning!


Easter Sunday was also enjoyable and had nothing to do with wedding planning. The weather here was so beautiful so we spent the afternoon outside soaking up the sun and floating in the pool. It was so nice to relax and not stress or worry about anything. I even got to take a Sunday Nap...glorious.

I hope you all had a great Easter weekend as well. He is Risen, He is Risen Indeed!!More posts about wedding planning coming soon :) Have a great week!
