So I've got the man, the dress, and the location... what more could a girl ask for?
As much fun as planning this wedding has been, can I just say for a second that I am so ready for it to just freaking get here already?!
Caleb and I seriously talk about our wedding every day...now I am ready to just be married to him already and become sleepover pals for life. Not to get too mushy on ya, but he literally is my best friend. He makes me laugh, he encourages me, and treats me incredibly.
Onto a few wedding day details.
-PHOTOGRAPHERS: We spoke with them on Monday night and set up an official 'day of' timeline for photos... did I mention that Caleb ABSOLUTELY, 100% does NOT want to see me before the ceremony? Leave it up to him to be different than the rest of the world (no "first look" opportunity for him!), but you know what? I love that. I will truly get to see that look on his face as I walk down the isle... according to my best friend he will "fall to his knees" when he sees me... pfftt ;)
-CAKE: We decided on a smaller 3 tiered cake for us, the bridal party, and our immediate family to enjoy... top layer (ours) will be red velvet, and the rest will be regular white cake covered in buttercream icing, with the middle layer covered in edible hydrangea flowers. The rest of the guests will get to gobble down on some delicious cupcakes of their flavor choosing! Know what I am nervous about though? Caleb throwing cake in my hair... should I worry? Nah.... right?!!
-MUSIC: we are still in need of a first dance song!!!! We have it narrowed down, but some ideas wouldn't hurt... *ahem*
-JEWELRY: I have none so far. Woops!
-SHOES: I have only found one cute pair I'm considering. Help (pale yellow, please)!
-DRESS: not gonna lie, its amazing.
Okay that is enough little details for today...don't want to give TOO much away!
Cannot believe it is almost our WEDDING MONTH!!!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting time for you!! Enjoy every minute of it:)

Cheers,

i am all about no first looks and seeing that face when you walk down the aisle for the first time! it seems so special. so cute that caleb wants that!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for you friend!!! Caleb is going to go bananas when he sees you!!
ReplyDeleteI have TONS of bridal jewelry that I got as gifts that I'm selling, they are all crystal pieces and kinda bigger more dramatic. If you are interested let me know and I can send you the links! :)
ReplyDeleteWe didn't do a first look because Andre' didn't want to, but seeing his face as I walked down made it so worth it :)
ReplyDeleteWe're not doing a first look either (his idea), I'm ok with that but I'd like to talk to him before so I'm not a wreck. I'm exited and cannot wait to see y'alls pictures.
ReplyDeleteI was on a hunt for yellow shoes for about 2 months, and finally had to give up! Not even Zappos had any decent options. Sounds like you've got most things under control. I'm a week and a half away from mine and tired of waiting too. Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteI definitely got to that point in wedding planning where I just wanted to it to be the wedding day already!! 7 months after my wedding- I just want to rewind and do it all again!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your planning!! Oh and love that engagement picture- too cute.
eeek! so exciting! yellow shoes will be perfect, and first dance songs I always love etta james "At last"
ReplyDeleteWe danced our first dance to "For My Love" by Bethany Dillon. It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting! I remember those last few weeks/months before our wedding! So much anticipation!
ReplyDeleteYAY! It's coming soooo fast :) We did the cake/cupcake thing as well, and my guy was the same way. In my head I had these cute first look pictures planned out, but he didn't want to see me until I was walking down the aisle. It took a day or two for it to sink in, but I'm so glad we waited. It'll make it that much more special :) So excited for you, Kayla!

ReplyDeleteAh! I am SO excited for you. "Sleepover pals for life"....that phrase is way too cute, I can only imagine how excited you truly are!
ReplyDeleteRuche {www.shopruche.com} is one of my faves for shoes! Plus, they're always getting new stuff in.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see how all these little details come together!
ReplyDeleteWe didn't do a first look either and I think it made everything that more amazing. The look on his face still gets me! Yay! Almost here :D
ReplyDeletewell at least you got the three basics to get wedded friend, with the man being the most important! lol. so exciting kayla! almost time, the cake sounds beautiful and is super sweet he wants to see you as you walk down the aisle. nothing more romantic!
ReplyDeleteIts almost here!!!! We danced to I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz.
ReplyDeleteI think my shoes were one of the last things I bought. Are you looking for flats or heels? I think I already told you we danced to You and I by Michael Buble. I think that is SO sweet that he doesn't want to see you ahead of time. It will make tha moment so much more special.
ReplyDeleteAh I love this picture and your cute lil' blog!

J didn't see me before the wedding either, so we scheduled it at 11:30 in the morning (small private ceremony) so I wouldn't have to wait. Such a good moment though. I think you'll be so happy :)
ReplyDeleteI emailed you my first dance song. I STILL LOVE IT, and since you asked..... here ya go :)
ReplyDeleteYay!!! It's getting so close!!! :-) I think it's adorable that Caleb doesn't want to see you before the wedding. That's so special!
ReplyDeleteI have to say, I absolutely love and adore the way that you described your relationship. I am all for the mush and showing love. plus sleepover buddies are fun :) I can't wait to see your amazing dress!
ReplyDeleteEek!! So excited about all these wedding details. I hate I missed this post yesterday...dress rehearsal consumed my day. What are you thinking for jewelry?
ReplyDeleteIf you still haven't found shoes... look here! http://www.dyeableshoestore.com
ReplyDeleteI was having the same problem finding cute shoes in the color I wanted and with heels I could actually walk in. I just ordered a pair from that website in the exact color I wanted and the pair I like only have 3 inch heel which is perfect! Hope it helps!!
If money wasn't an issue, Zach and I would be getting married this June and not next June. We went to a wedding today for a friend, and it made me want my day to be here even more!!
