My menus

Well, wadda ya know? My menus are too dark just as I suspected. After I ordered them. Ugh. But I have a solution. Since the menus are a little too big to sit nicely in the napkins, I'm going to find a Kinkos' in Florida to cut them down. I'm cutting the dark part that can't be read anyway which happens to list the cake flavors. No biggie. Everyone should know by looking at the cake in the corner what's for dessert. Problem solved as far as I'm concerned.

Other than that, my DOC received the first shipment we sent today of wedding supplies. Actually, we sent her all the bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts. She should receive the large wedding day supply box on Thursday. That has everything from the aisle runner to the cocktail hour centerpieces in it.

We finally got a hold of our photographer today and went over a rough draft of the timeline for the day of. I also got in touch with my florist to clarify some things in my contract after some concerns were raised by another bride who was not thrilled with her bouquets.

All in all I think everything is coming together and to an end....

Day 2...Master Cleanse

Day 2 is going well. Started out this morning just making the lemonade because I didn't have time for the SWF. As of right now I'm not hungry. I worked out today and felt great. Energy level is through the roof. Bonus is I weighed myself this morning and I was down 4 lbs! I don't know if my scale is lying to me, but I'd like to believe it's not. We'll see when I weigh myself in the morning before I head to the gym.

After working out, I headed to my parents house to freshen up and take a quick nap before heading to work. When I woke up, the aroma of Salisbury steaks was coming from the kitchen. My mother had to cook when I'm there and on this cleanse. Damn that food smelled good! I hightailed it outta there before my mind told me I was hungry. That's what it is, a psychological thing, I believe when it comes to hunger. Anyhow, I got to work and had some lemonade.

Tonight when I get home I plan to take the laxative tea and then the SWF in the morning.

All in all, so far so good.

In wedding news, we paid most of our catering bill, paid off the florist, the cake lady, the photographer and the DJ. The only thing left is the videographer and the DOC. Feels good to get this stuff done but I hate to see the bank account dwindling down. 15 days to be a Mrs.!

B-pics!!!

B-pics, short for boudoir pictures is a knot craze for wedding gifts for your new hubby. Unfortunately, I crapped around and waited too long to decide to do this so they won't be a wedding gift to Mike. However, I found a photographer, who comes recommended by some of the CFL knotties, that's available to do a b-pic session on February 15. Perfect since I'm landed in the sunshine state on the 14th. Tabitha from Ultimate Image Weddings, has a blog that displays a few of her b-pics that she's taken in the past. She does wonderful work. Unfortunately my wedding day photographer is unable to do a b-pic session or I would've done them with her. Her pictures are amazing also.

So, I've made a few purchases in preparation for my sexy session. The regular lingerie out there, but my fave is this officer arrest me outfit:
I ordered some black patent leather peep toe pumps to go with it. Whew! This is going to be hottt! I can't wait. Hair and make-up is included in the fee so I'll be dolled up and ready to shoot! The best part is a few of my girls are going too so we should have a blast.

My clutch arrived!

And it's perfect! Matches perfectly with my shoes. I'll have to post a pic soon. eBay has been my best friend so far.

On another note, I spoke to my photographer today and she only needed one more girl to sign up for the b-pic session for February. Well, I told my knottie girls and they all emailed her so we should have enough to make it a go. I just hope we can agree on a date that works for me.

I'll be back with pics.....On to stuff these boxes of invitations to be mailed tomorrow.

I've got them all....finally!

Our photographer, Nikki, sent the disc with our engagement photos on it and for some reason I could not load them on my desktop computer. So, I contacted Nikki to let her know and being the sweetheart she is, sent me a few prints as well as a new disc. Guess what? Still doesn't work. I decided to try it on my laptop and Voila! it works. So, now the dilemma is how do I get them on my desktop? Can you tell I'm not the most computer literate person you know?

So what I did was follow the wizard to publish the pictures to the web and then I used my desktop to access the page I created with the photos. Then I made a folder for the pictures on my desktop. Done. So here's a few of my favorites for your viewing pleasure:

I love how they turned out and I plan to use MyPublisher to make an album. One of the pics is going to be used in the sand ceremony frame and we need to use one for the signature mat at the wedding. Which ones do we use? Hmmmmm......decisions, decisions.
