The Count Down Is ON!

Well today is Monday, October 24th and we are getting married Saturday, October 29th. So people, the count down is on. Planning this wedding has been fun and relatively mellow. We have decided that we want to enjoy this day instead of having flashbacks of how fast it went by. So we are doing a small dinner with 53 of our closest family and friends. Something that I am excited about is spending this day with Chris. With a huge reception I swear the bride and groom don't see each until it's over. That is if they don't want a line, which I am violently apposed to. Yes, Violently Opposed to. Hopefully having this sit down dinner we will be able to enjoy each other and really take in the importance of this big day. We thought it best to not have any kids to the wedding so that everyone could really relax and enjoy themselves. I have to admit no kids is kind of bitter sweet. The 15 nieces and nephews that Chris and I have are some of the sweetest kids we know but together they are a rambunctious group. So Chris's parents are having a dinner the night before so all the kids and family that aren't coming to the wedding can celebrate. We are really excited to share this day with those closest to us. Our friend Molly is doing our photography and she does a great job so we'll have pictures to share soon. 
Wish us luck that the weather cooperates. Its supposed to get cold. 

Oh and just as a side note, check out this adorable shoes I have on order for the party the night before. 
Cute right?

  1. We also had a dinner instead of a reception. And up millcreek canyon (log haven). It was the best experience and we wouldn't have changed a thing. Good luck with it all!

    PS- I had the weirdest experience when coming down millcreek one day after doing some wedding planning. Te guy at the gate/guard handed me a pile of pics that had
    been left at One of the fire pits. He said 'these look like your friends". It was pictures of you and all your high school buddies. Crazy.

  3. Oh how exciting! Good luck on the final days of preparation, and congratulations again! So happy for you two! (By the way, my "reception" was an adults only dinner at Sundance, it could not have been more perfect, wise choice missy! And...I want those shoes!)
