WE'RE MARRIED!
So Friday, for the rehearsal we got stuck in the gazebo in a ridiculous thunderstorm. We had to make a run for it to get inside and it was miserable weather, oh well just the rehearsal. Getting my nails done friday, one of bridesmaids calls and tells me that her grandma passed away, felt awful for her, but she said she was going to be there for the wedding just not the rehearsal. More condo trouble friday which added to the stress...all in all friday=not good. Saturday, sun shining, all of my bridesmaids looked beautiful and we had the best day/night ever. Everybody had a blast, the dance floor was rockin all night. We have hundreds of pictures (don't even have the photographers pics yet). It was really the best day of my life. Now we are off to Cuba in the morning, and when we get back, moving into a brand new condo (problems all got settled), and I'm starting law school. What a wonderful time!

FRUSTRATED
Ok so this isn't exactly wedding related, but it sure doesn't help 2 days before the wedding.
We finally found a gorgeous condo we loved in our price range, the bank originally told us no problem we could get 100% financing if we pay off two of my FH old debts. So we did (7000$ worth) and we were ready to put a bid on the condo today. Then the bank tells us that because of what's happening in the market in the US, they are no longer offering 100% financing for anyone. So unless we can put a downpayment (which would be another 10 000$ plus closing costs) then we can't do anything. So now we are going to be stuck renting (paying someone else's mortgage) forever. What a crappy day! |

3 days to go...last post for a while?
Hi everyone, I figured since I had a minute I would post a little something. We are just doing all the last minute stuff (putting the programs together, putting the favours together, and place cards). I'm so excited (although they are calling for rain here on my day and the ceremony is supposed to be outside ugh) ...my fingers are crossed. If I don't get a chance to post again before saturday I will post once we get back from Cuba. Good luck to all brides this weekend!!!

Birthday gift from my baby
So I just had my 25th birthday on July 1st. My FH came out of the bedroom and said "ok I have a gift for you, but it's kind of a wedding present too" I wanted to wait until the day of the wedding to open it but he insisted I open then. He bought me a beautiful matching necklace and bracelet to wear for the wedding. They are perfect! He picked them out all by himself and they are going to look great with my beautiful dress. I will post pictures once I take some.
oh and 15 MORE DAYS!!! I'm SO excited! |

Bachelorette!!!
Amazing night!
So this past weekend was my bachelorette party. I had the best time ever. We all had an amazing night. We went to Niagara falls got a great hotel room, got all dolled up, had an amazing dinner and went to a great club. The night was filled with some hilarious moments and I thank all of my bridesmaids and the other girls who attended for everything! Hope everyone else has as much fun as I did with their bachelorette!

Our MC
Jeff
Jeff is a good friend of ours from high school and we really wanted him to be a part of our wedding. He is a GREAT speaker and always has great things to say, hence him being the MC for the wedding. We both love him to death, and we are sure he'll be amazing for us at the wedding.

The boys
For my FI, this decision was pretty easy. 3/5 of these boys he has been friends with since they were little kids, maybe even before elementary school. The Best man is one of those, his name is Rej, actually Rej and Steph (my MOH) have been dating for even longer than my FI and I. He is a great friend to the both of us, and we are honored to have him in our life. Stephan is another friend that my FI has had since they were little, very organized and driven. Dan, again a friend since my FI was little. Andre, came to us in high school and became a great friend to the both of us, my FI was in his wedding party last summer (that's where my profile pic is from). The 5th boy in the wedding party is a friend that my FI met in college, and we love him to death. All of these guys are big part of our lives and I'm happy to have them as a part of the wedding. (rest of the pics to come)
