Honeymoon
The most important part of the wedding!
Punta Cana was wonderful-- Truly relaxing!
It was so important for us to have this time together, alone, away from everyone. We did both did sick- it comes with the territory of the island- But I have a fabulous time. We were in bed by 9pm everynight and up by 7am! We felt like an old maried couple, but we came back last night refreshed and renewed! |

I'm BACK!!
Wow What a Wedding!!!
Hey Ladies
I am back and I want to tell you I had a fabulous wedding!! All of the hard work really paid off! It was a blast!! What went well?? I was so relaxed and happy- My friends thought I took Valium (ha!). I didnt scream, get upset, cry, I was on point! The flowers from the mom and pop shop truly were the best!! They were creative and fun!! I am glad I saw a tester prior, Make sure you see a tester prior During the reception we had a Michael Jackson Tribute which was SO HOTT!! There were a few snags- First, the seating arrangements were messed up. My hubby's folks complained something terrible that they were separated from each other and that we showed favorites to non-family members! It was not nice. What can I do now? Nothing, its over. I apologized the next day and kept it moving. Second, app. 10% of our guests did not show for various reasons So, it is what it is. I believe I did everything to assist in getting folks there, but life happens. This is the only picture I have so far of the night, It's us in our hotel room after a night of partying! I love my hubby! |

Wedding Reception
The Seating Chart is the DEVIL!!
I thought it would be SO easy!!
Boy was I wrong! Five days away and we have 5 people that we cannot seem to place anywhere! I never thought my FH would want to be so involved with this process, but he is all in it and feels "Oh, no we can't separate Aunt So & So from her sister!" Blah, Blah, Blah-- I say the hect with it!! I'm ready to do open-seating or remind my fiancée it's about making new connections at the wedding, not sticking with the old ones. We havent had an argument in a while; but boy did we have one over the seating chart! AHHHHH!! |

Flowergirl Gift
An item to remember for a Flower Girl
I headed the Things Remembered picked up a Thank You water globe for my flower girls gift. I had it engraved Personalized and Youre the Best!
Thank goodness they were having a sale!! Our flower girl is a little older; she will most likely not be a flower girl again. I wanted her to have something she could remember her experience. Its cute, not a baby gift and something she would not mind having for a lifetime. |

Out-Of-Town (OOT) Bags
Celebrating Baltimore with my out-of-town guests
I am finishing up my OOT bags to be delivered to 4 hotels by Wednesday of next week.
The bags are re-usable cloth bags I brought from Papermart.com. Each has a Charm City feel to them and are filled with items that are Baltimore favorites: Utz Potato Chips (Though made in Pennsylvania, its a regional favorite) Old Bay Seasoning and Crab Cake recipe Goetz Caramel Candy Otterbein Cookies Of course we added two bottles of water with personal labels and a Thank You note. The total cost of the project for 30 bags was less than $100.00 because one of my hostesses husbands works for McCormick Seasoning and got the Old Bay at a discount. I hope our guests like them!! |
