These past two weeks we have crossed off a BUNCH of the big to-do's! I can't believe it!
And it's been so fun!
Last weekend we got the bridal transportation squared away and schedule our engagement photo shoot (this Sunday!). This past weekend Andrew and I drove to Ohio for an incredible trip. Andrew's mom was there, too, so it was a fun group!
We got to our reception tasting RIGHT at the time of our appointment. We were stressing! Silly construction, I tell ya!
You guys. The food.is.awesome.
It was so tough to make a choice but we settled on something our guests will really enjoy!
Here are all of the place setting options:
I love the windows in The Athletic Club. I can't wait to take some photos when we're all gussied up and husband and wife!
After that we went to the florist, started our registry at Macy's and had a lovely dinner.
Saturday we picked out tuxes, met with the priest, went to Mass and went to our Rehearsal Dinner location for dinner!
Sunday we drove back and pretty much crashed!
Phew! Tiring!
So so so fun, though! We had a great time!
Have a wedding-related story to share?

Then it was on to the food. Lots of food. And wine. LOTS of wine!
I can't show you allll of the photos we took, but I can share a little preview!

I promise everything will get done. The list may feel long but everything will work out.
Linkingup for my first wedding wednesday :)!
Whew! You got a ton done. And I think it's awesome that we both blogged about our lists today! You are making me a bit stressed that I don't have all of this stuff done, but I have a couple of months extra! HA!
You also said you had 6 week until the big day. It's 6 months, right? :)
What an overwhelming list, but you're doing so good! Food and wine tasting has to be the most fun :)
I can't wait to see your engagement pics! Hopefully we get a preview next week ;)
Busy, busy! Exciting - just over 6 months for us, too :)
Isn't doing the registry fun? My husband loved the "gun" that we got to shoot items with! He was shocked that people might actually want to get us stuff for our life together!
We registered at Macy's too! At least among other places. But I really wanted to register there for their china. I still love our Vera Wang china, and even now, one year after the wedding, still want more to complete our collection!
