Flower Girl

I just have to brag.........I have the cutest darn flower girl EVER!





She'll be wearing this dress, but in purple (crossing my fingers that it arrives before the wedding!)

Here she is practicing for the first dance! Or practicing to be a ballerina....though I think softball is more in her future!

Here she is saying "I will walk down the isle without crying, I will walk down the isle without crying!"

But, we might be seeing some of this going on......and that's OK too because she's so darn cute!

Maura and Mauricio, thank you so much for letting your beautiful daughter be in our wedding! We are so honored to have her walking (or running or crying or sitting) down the isle in front of us! Cat has already said she's going to teach her how to run and scream down the isle, and I can't wait! =)

Be on the look out for upcoming posts on our wedding party. We can't wait to introduce them to you! And embarrass them too!

Love,
Suzanne

Photo Spot

Since we are having our ceremony and reception at the same hotel, I had been on the hunt for a nice park area to have our wedding pictures taken. In my head I wanted the whole wedding party to be picked up from the hotel and taken over to this wonderful area for our pictures. The problem was I couldn't find this "wonderful area" I was looking for! So in this madness I call wedding planning, I delegated the job to Lance. And boy did he find a beautiful spot! He took me there on Valentine's day to check it out. He actually found 2 other spots that he was going to show me as well, but I didn't want to see them. This spot was everything I was thinking of in my head!

We will have to make sure we aren't set up with the big palm tree coming out of our heads though! =) I'm crossing my fingers and toes that on April 25, we will have a day like we did on Valentine's Day! It was about 65 degrees and no rain, no crowds and beautifully colored water. Some may ask if I have a back up plan in case it rains. Valid question. As of now, I don't have a back up plan......it doesn't rain in Southern California!** =)

Thanks for finding our photo spot Lance! I love it!

Don't forget to read the below post on hotel information. You have until April 3 to book a room for $99 a night!

**We have been trying for a month now to book our photographer for our engagement session. I have tried to book him on my last two off Fridays and it has been raining cats and dogs both Fridays. What luck! And everyone says it doesn't rain in So Cal! I hope we are getting our rain out of the way early. Please mother nature don't rain on my wedding. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! =)

Invitations

Well, most of our invitations have been sent out! I'm so happy to finally be done with them! I really didn't want to pay the money that places charge to print invitations, so I decided I would do them myself. Not really myself exactly, it took a village! Thank you so much Mom, Rachel, Cat and Tracy I would have never been able to complete all these invitations with out you! You guys are awesome and the best help a girl could ask for!

Hope you all like them! I can't wait to see everybody in April! Oh, and don't forget to RSVP or you will be getting a mean phone call from me! ;-P Also, make sure you read the hotel information below if you are interested in renting a room. You have until April 3 to get a room for $99!!

Love, Suzanne
