60 Days To Go

60 days to go!!!

We have done so much in the past 10 days. And just as well too, as we really are on the home stretch now.

All the wedding invitations are now ready to be posted. Fiona and I spent the weekend making the gorgeous invitations, which we hope our guests will love. Jonathan and I just need to put all the labels and stamps on the envelopes and away they can go!

We've made a time to meet with Jennie Keogh at Merci Bouquet on Saturday this week. We're very much looking forward to working with Jennie to create some gorgeous floral arrangements for the big day.

We've now made a new appointment to see Father Coleman on 12 June to go through the wedding ceremony. We had wanted to meet with Father Coleman without the hassle of looking after Mina on the same day, but alas, we will just have to lump it. Mina was so rude the last time we met with Father Coleman, so we may just have to send her to another room to play quietly by herself.

All the flower girls' outfits (as well as matching outfits for the other little girls) have now been bought. I went to Market City on the weekend and scored a great deal on 5 matching dresses from Cotton On Kids at $10 a piece, and then lucked out again later in the day when I found 5 matching cardigans to go with the dresses at $8 a piece. Gotta love a bargain!

We're meeting with Kate at the Vibe Milsons Point on Thursday night to go over our questions relating to the wedding reception, and to also sample the menu choices we have selected. We'll also be tasting the wines on the night. Can't wait!

It looks like I've found the wedding hair and make up artists who won't cost a fortune. I don't even know why I didn't start with my trusty hairdresser Lou, owner of Xquizit Hair in The Forum at St Leonards. Lou will engage a make up person for me who won't charge like a bull, and he is more than happy to do my hair on the day too. Thank goodness for that!

And big news - we have finally decided on a destination for our honeymoon! Our wonderful travel agent Mel "Chairman" Kaga from Flight Centre Chatswood Westfield helped us again with our travel needs, this time to a gorgeous resort in Vanuatu for 7 days. Just lazing out and doing absolutely nothing for a week sounds like heaven to me right now!

We have come so far in 10 days. But that's not to say we've now done everything. There are still a few more things to do, such as buying Jonathan's wedding ring, having both our wedding rings engraved, finalising all the details with the ceremony, putting together the Order of Service, finalising wedding music, finalising the guests numbers, finalising the plan of attack on the day, and waiting for my wedding dress to arrive!!! And of course, we have our Bach Nights to look forward to.

60 short days to go!!!
