Remember me?

Hi Blog! I disappeared for a bit but I'm baaaaaack!

Wedding planning has taken a really fun turn recently. Now that we are under a year until the wedding, I actually have tasks that need to be done. I have planning to do! Yay! Its actually been really fun and has made the wedding feel a bit more real. I'm finally counting in months (not a year + months)!

Let me catch you all up -

1. Save the Dates go out in less than a month! I can't wait to show you all what they look like. It makes the wedding feel so close knowing I'm sending them out soon.
2. We have made a decision about catering! I am really excited about this too. We really thought outside the box and I seriously love it. We found the perfect caterer who is just as excited about our unique menu and plan as we are. (I will write more about that later too!)
3. On a trip home to Yakima this month, my mom and I headed out to buy local strawberries and raspberries...and then we canned almost all of our jam favors! I can say first hand, they taste delicious. Our wedding favors will look so stinking cute all tied with bakers twine and kraft hang tags. Fun project! I'm so glad my mom was on board and helped me make jam favors a reality. (Thanks Mom!)
4. We also started our gift registries - which was definitely more fun for me than Nate. :-)
5. I've ditched the veil I bought in February for a much better option... my Aunts wedding veil! Its incredible, I'm still speechless at how gorgeous it is. Its cathedral length with a stunning lace around all the edges. So its like my old lace mantilla veil, but a different length - and way more jaw dropping beautiful! It means a lot to me that I can wear my aunts wedding veil (41 years later!) and I'm in awe at how perfect it is.

I think that is all that is going on currently. I'm just putting finishing touches on our wedding website, sending out our Save the Dates, and finalizing more of our catering information.

What are all of you up to? What kind of projects are you working on? 

Side note: have you all gone out and gotten the new issue of the Yakima Bride magazine?? Do it!
