It has been a while since Ben and I posted. Sorry to our loyal blog followers, but this past month has been quite busy with Wedding plans! The big day is only 132 days away and before we know it July 25th will be here. This past month we found our florist, took our engagement pictures, registered (which was the coolest experience; Ben was a real trooper!), finalized menu and times for the big day, booked a hotel block, and many many more small details of our wedding. Check out our Wedding Website for more information. (there is also a link in our Link List)
The biggest task we accomplished was sending out our save-the-date magnets. Ben and I decided to cut some of our costs and make our own save-the-date. I never understood why wedding invitations cost so much, but now I understand. Making our save-the-dates was an all day project! You don't think it will take that long, but having to print about 150 magnets (and having to hand feed them through the printer because they are too thick) really does take more time than you think it will. Thankfully, Ben's mom and Megan were willing to help us out. They made a great team and had quite an assembly line going. We were really happy with how the save-the-dates turned out.
My parents also threw a small engagement party for us. It was a lot of fun to celebrate with some of our family and friends. We also celebrated Mikey's 25th birthday. Mike was very kind to share his special day with us. Below is a slideshow of the engagement party.
