We have a lot to get done in the next year and now we're up against the clock with the release of the VT Hokie football schedule in early 2011.
Topics currently under discussion:
- Who to officiate. A friend recently offered to officiate which has brought a few questions around worth discussing related to what we need to do to have the rabbi marry us. We're meeting with the rabbi on Friday morning and hopefully after a chat, we'll have a decision.
- Where to have the ceremony? We've been clueless and still are.
- Where to have the reception? We have our favorite location chosen. However, due to not knowing where we want to have the ceremony, we've been second guessing the reception venue.
- and much much more.
My folks are going to be in town with us!!! They will finally get to see Roanoke - and at the peak of leaf season, too! This will be the first time Mom and Dad will be able to participate in wedding planning activities, which has me very excited!
On the agenda for Friday is kicking off wedding dress shopping. Mom and I realized a few months ago that wedding dress shopping wasn't going to be what we were hoping it would be. Getting up to NY to visit Estelle's Dressy Dresses was going to be next to impossible until this coming spring/summer. So, we're going to try on a few dresses in Roanoke and at least see if we can find a style that works. Then the rest of my shopping will be taking place in Charlotte and Roanoke. At least I get to start shopping with Mom, even if we don't find The Dress.
Lots of family, lots of talking, lots to do. It will be interesting to see what Douglas and I come away from this weekend with.
Stay tuned for scenes from next week's all new episode...
Wedding Dress Tid Bit: The white dress does not symbolize virginity. The veil is the symbol of virginity.
