I love it when people do the red roses with the glass diamonds in the middle of the roses! It always looks so nice.

My MIL and I are attending the Baltimore Bridal Show today!!! I am sooo excited. I hope to find caterers, tables, linens and DJ's at the show, so I can plan a budget for the wedding. So far, I have a photographer, have a possible venue, made a decision about my invitations, making my save the dates, made a decision about my centerpieces and also have been considering an online wedding gown. My ceremonial event is not til 2011 and its a looong time from now, but I really want to be as prudent with the cost as possible, so Im hoping making early plans will cut some cost down.

2011 will come fast!

We sent our invites out yesterday. Turns out they needed extra postage... LAME! 1.20 to send to Canada and .88 to send domestic.

I totally recommend Bridal Bargains by Denise and Alan Fields. I picked it up at Barnes and Noble for about $15. It has really great ideas on how to avoid the "wedding" upgrade on costs. An excellent read to find deals and not be shafted by wedding vendors.

lol Peachey -- did they return the envelopes or did you find out at the post office?

Thanks lilac -- Ill look for it at the bookstore.

So the bridal show was a super success yesterday! Found some awesome and inexpensive center piece ideas, found three prospective cake places (I ate SO MUCH cake I almost passed out). One of the cake vendors I got a piece of cake from was this super delicious pink cake with champagne in it. It was sooo good. The vendor, however, is located in PA and ordering from them would be $$$.

I also made a decision about our venue -- after consulting the hubby on this, we are going to get re-married at the College of Notre Dame. Apparently they open their chapel and their banquet hall for weddings. After the show, the MIL and I drove to the school and went in the chapel. Its soooo beautiful and sooo quaint. And I can actually get married with a service and all, which is awesome! Both the chapel and the reception were reasonable though we would have to use their caterers for the event.

Having seen several catering services at the show, I realized that to get your event catered and order the china and the silver, the linen, tables and the chairs, can be quite expensive too. And since the college has a very reasonable service per head (and it includes everything), I thought it wasnt a bad deal at all. So I am scheduling a tasting this week and hopefully will make reservations with them.

The best part was there were drawings for door prizes for each vendor station. I won two! One for a bed and breakfast at the local Sheraton and 50 bucks off the chapel rental at the college Good deal!

Oh no, I took them directly to the post office and they told me there. I was just kinda bummed that we spent way more than I anticipated on postage.

Was it House of Clarendon? We tasted his cakes, and he had yummy champagne cake

My Mom is visiting and I got my dress on Saturday. It's nothing like what I expected, but absolutely perfect!! I cannot wait to go back for a fitting.

I also got the most perfect veil by the designer Paloma Blanca. The veil cost almost as much as my dress But it really made the dress so I just had to have it!!
