Hmm, the title of this post makes the two sound as though they’re somehow related, but they’re not… Evan and I dropped Moira off at Camp Bow Wow for her interview today. On our way out of our condos, Moira was shivering with excitement and we actually had to stop and let her out so [...]
We talked to the people at Johnnie’s Bakery about the wedding cake and groom’s cake, and left with a pretty good feeling about the place and what they can do. We should be making our decision on who to go with soon, after we meet with Rosebeary’s in about a week. Meanwhile, I’ve been playing [...]
We met with Cheever’s today and had a lot of our questions about catering answered. Friday we’ll meet with a guy from Deep Fork, and then we’ll probably be ready to make our decision on who to hire for the reception. The food from both places is good, so it’ll probably mostly come down to [...]
The contract was signed today for our reception, so it’s official! June 18th, 2011 at the Chesapeake Boathouse. This week and next we’re meeting with bakers and caterers to figure out who will make our cake and who will be providing a delicious meal for everyone. Then we’ll need to figure out music, decorations, invitations, [...]
On Saturday, we’re going to go take a look at the Chesapeake Boathouse and the Oklahoma History Center. If Castle Falls would ever call me back, Evan and I plan to have dinner there sometime so we can check out the location and the food too. Any other ideas, anyone? What’s a reasonable price range [...]
Next Saturday, we’re going to take a look at a potential reception venue for our friends and family who won’t be able to make it to Mexico for the wedding. I’ve been busy most of today with looking at sites and trying to sort through the different catering options for some of them. I don’t [...]
I’ve emailed and texted Michelle about the wedding more than I care to admit today, and I have yet to hear back from her about any of it! Where is she? What if she’s fed up with me? What if she decided I’m too hopeless to deal with anymore??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Eh hem… I’ve narrowed down [...]
After successfully avoiding almost all wedding planning activities, I decided today that I’d better get started on some of this stuff if we want people to know we’re getting married next summer. Unfortunately, I’ve become overwhelmed even with the few things I DO need to pick out (thankfully, Iberostar is taking care of the wedding [...]
Evan and I went out with my family tonight to Tokyo to celebrate our engagement and had a wonderful time. Now I just need to remind Evan to call his family so we can go out to eat with them too. Eventually we’ll need to have a get-together with both sides of the family, but [...]
After Evan proposed Monday, I took a picture of my ring on my hand and sent it to my parents and sisters with a little note explaining why my hand was so red (seriously, just 3 sips of champagne). Mom, Anna, and Michelle got it right off, but Dad simply asked if that was the [...]
In Playa del Carmen. Mark your calendars! Evan and I still need to get our passports…
I think Moira is sad that she didn’t get more than a couple nibbles of the deliciously wonderful steaks Evan cooked for dinner tonight. Poor food-oriented little girl… *** And because I think you should know, I had a completely different idea for this weekend’s comic. Evan took some artistic license, drew and posted yesterday’s [...]
I finally got around to checking out a website Adrienne told me about a long time ago, Cake Wrecks. Most of the cakes are horrible, but the blogger saves cakes that make you believe in edible art for Sundays. After looking through the entire collection of Sunday posts, I realized my favorites really call to [...]
