Holy 164 days and one mother load of an update

OKAY!...


Brace yourselves it's been a while since we (ahem I) updated this website..  But here it is in a nutshell..

First we found the reception hall of my dreams (sorry babe) and then couldn't afford it (boo) then we found this adorable little (big enough) place just a 20 minute drive from our place.. It's cozy and I think it will be AWESOME!  So we Booked it.. WHEW! and the cost...  was 1/8 of the the original reception hall. (YAY!)

I attended a bridal show thing with a friend (thank goodness she is such a riot to be with), it really didn't live up to my expectations but I'm holding out for the good news that I win the wedding package (i'll let you know)

We signed the contract for our photographer (she's FABULOUS!) I'm so excited!

I found my dress (it's so beautiful and I feel so amazing in it) 

I started weight watchers and promptly lost 8 pounds in two weeks.... HAZZA!  

AS you know we booked the church back in November.. HOWEVER! Last sunday we received an email letting us know that we could no longer have the church since they were doing maintenance on it during the summer....  Now you would think they would have informed us of that a little sooner.. But no!  

But I can't be too mad at them because now we are getting married in the DomKyrka (The Cathedral) which is the biggest in all of Sweden and apparently a really big deal..  (hehe)

We taste tested the wedding meal from the caterers.. WOW.. and I mean WOW!  WHAT A MEAL!  I can't believe I have to wait so long before I actually get to have it again..  But it's going to be so yummy....

And finally..  we have a cake maker.. taste testing is booked for June and price is very reasonable.

So things are moving along just great!

On the list of things to do:

1. send invites
2. get rings
3. decorations
4. tux for Olov
5. flowers flowers flowers
6. music (we are doing it ourselves so no big problems there) 


Oh and I cut my hair off...  I guess I will find out if that was a mistake or not! I think not! I LOVE MY SHORT HAIR!

oh ya this is the church from afar.. just say it with me... DAYUM!
