Time is really flying! It will be here before we know it! That is both exciting and kind of scary...still feel like there are so many plans to make. Maybe it would do me some good to not be completely planned for every minute. Spontaneity isn't so difficult is it? Hah!

Wedding stuff is coming along. In early September, the planners are going to be sending us the menu of our wedding night dinner, the program of our city tour for photographs, and exact timing of all of our "prestations" (time of ceremony, hair stylin', driver pick up, dinner, etc).

I attached a photo of Mont St Michel because that is one place that we definitely plan to visit in Normandy after our wedding. Beautiful, isn't it?

By the way, thanks for the comments. It's fun to see that someone is looking every once in a while...even through the boring posts about plans!

Planning, planning, planning

This is what I am trying to NOT become. Plans are coming along. On Saturday afternoon, we met with the reverend that will be legally marrying us here in Ohio. I am trying to make arrangements for Jon's parents', who will be visiting for the wedding here at Brandywine Falls.

In Paris, we are close to finalizing the budget with our planners. We have the park, an officiant, a bouquet, a car to drive us around, hair & make-up stylists that are coming to our apartment on the wedding day, and one of two perfectly able photographers (it's a long story).

I bought shoes today - exciting, huh? I am taking my dress to the shop on Thursday to get a bustle put on it. Jon has yet to figure out his tux, but I have given him the green light on wearing his chuck taylor high tops with whatever he wears (as if I really have the authority to allow or stop this).

Hmmm...I'm sure I am describing minutia and forgetting the big things that are going on, but things ARE going on and that is all that I can hope for right now!
