29 March 2009-Adam

Yeah, buddy! We're well on our way.

Yesterday we went and booked the Hickory Hills Country Club for the reception. We are very pleased with the deal we got, and the owner is very accommodating. We were in a position to negotiate some of the prices down a bit, and we wound up saving a bit of money. We still have to set up a tasting to finalize the menu, but the hall has been booked, and we have a contract to prove it.

I'm very relieved that we've gotten across the two biggest hurdles already. Now we have the details: chocolate fountain? Photographer? Photo booth? DJ? What about flowers? Shellie has to worry about bridesmaid dresses, not to mention her own attire. I have to get tuxes for my guys and I, we have a rehearsal dinner to plan (to say nothing about the rehearsal itself), save-the-date cards to send out, invitations, wedding rings, and on and on down the line. Goodness, there's a lot to do. However, compared to the task of finding, choosing, and booking a venue for the reception (which will undoubtedly be the party of the century, mind you), the rest of it should be fairly easy. (Insert "famous last words" here).
