Suits

So I've always loved the idea of suits on guys instead of tuxes. I've been telling Zach since before we were engaged how I loved the suit idea. I just think it is really classic and has a vintage feel to it. Well last night we went to look at suits and were expecting something very different and a little less expensive. I am hoping over the next couple months we will be able to find something that fits our needs and our wallets. At least I kind of feel like this is Zach's problem and not mine, but obviously I am here to lend a helping hand too.

Bridesmaid Flowers

YAY!!!! So I found bridesmaid flowers I love. Could it be true that my little vision in my head is finally growing. :) I'm pretty excited. I've finally gotten most of the modern ideas I liked out of my head and can find alternative romantic/vintage ideas that go with our theme. I always think about my wedding dress when making decisions. It is so hard though because I am literally revolving our wedding around my dress and it makes it very hard for Zach to get the vision. I hope that on our wedding day he realizes why it all makes sense.


The flower I've fallen in love with is the lisianthus. It's so pretty and so simple.

Things I haven't updated...

1.) My wedding website isn't complete. I have no idea what I am doing with it. It staarted off smoothly and all has gone down hill. I might just have to use one of the generic The Knot ones. Blah. Give me another month and let's see what I can accomplish.

2.) We picked out a cake, but didn't order it yet. We have the flavor(s) of cake we want, how many tiers and what it will look like. So that is exciting. We just need to go in around the holidays and place our order.

3.) I'm sold on the color wisteria. I figure at the end of the day if I change my mind and hate the color, I still have the Zach and really that is all that matters.

4.) I even got our toasting flutes and cake serving set at Papyrus. Simple, but classy.

5.) Next order of buisness is to start looking at invitations. I was pretty convinced I wanted pocket fold style invitations, but they are VERY modern and our wedding isn't modern it's romantic and classic. So back to the drawing board with that.

Party Bus

We found our party bus and fell in love. It's amazing. I never thought picking one out would be so exciting, but it was. Just sitting on the bus was just another thing that made it more real that we are getting married. It's going to be a blast. It is awesome to see all these amazing details come together on our wedding day. I'm so excited to share this special day with our siblings and friends and this party but is going to make it more memorable.

Dear August 13, 2011,

I would love it if you would hurry. Okay?

Thanks,
Jillian

Flowers

Who would have thought flowers would be the hardest thing I have come to decide on yet? Surely, not me. I knew I didn't know much about flowers, but I thought I knew a few things. I really don't want anything modern. I want something more airy and romantic, but the options are endless. I found a couple flower pictures that I enjoy and fit my standards, now I just need to find the perfect florist who meets my wedding needs. I just want the flowers to be my ideas and wants not someone elses.

ONE YEAR AWAY

Today is August 13, 2010. Next year on August 13, 2011 I will be Mrs. Jillian Stillman. Scary, right? It's a little scary, but a lot more exciting. I do know that I will ALWAYS be a Kenny at heart (and foot). I can not wait to marry my best friend and am looking forward to counting down the days until then.

Change of plans

Obviously we have been changing somethings around because it would be too easy to pick one thing and stick to it. I'm pretty nervous about the Lilac washing my Bridesmaids out. So I think I am going to go with Wisteria instead. It is a purple pink. I know that I hate pink, but I love this color. I've also decided to only go with style number 83312. Does this mean I will never change me mind again? I don't know, but I am going to try had to stick with it so I can start thinking about flower girl dresses, centerpieces, decorations, etc. :) Although, I do have my eye on a very special bridesmaid dress. If it gets marked 1/2 off sometime in the next six months that it WILL BE the bridesmaid dress. :) Check it out!
