Oops, now I remember what we did on Saturday. We drove to Sonoma kind of late in the afternoon and bought our wine for the reception! We originally planned to go to Benzinger, but it closed at 5 p.m. BR Cohn was still open so we went there for a tasting. At first, we were somewhat ignored amid the frenzy of late hour wine tasters, but we were ( Read more... )

Inspired by Meghan, I'm finally going over the massive to-do list, but editing out what is already done. Yuck.

I finally saved some of my e-pics into photobucket so I can post them online. I keep changing my mind about which ones I like best because I like the majority of them.

The shower was fun. I have a lot to say about it, but I'm mentally exhausted. Maybe I'll post more about it later. One of the guests was a no show. I later found out that she was in a car accident on her way to the shower. Mom was a no show too ( Read more... )

I just ordered 8 dozen white paper fans at Asianideas.com. I haven't had time to figure out how to include pictures (looks like LJ doesn't image host from Shutterfly), but they're the standard white paper fans with the wooden handle. Very reasonably priced at about $0.60/fan including shipping. It's supposed to be very hot in Sonoma that time of ( Read more... )

Tux shoppingD and I looked at the different styles at Men's Wearhouse yesterday after work. I really like the clean look of a sharp suit and colorful tie, but D wants to wear a real tux. Honestly, I don't like the look of rented tuxedos because they look precisely like what they are - rented and not custom fitted. We had a few tense moments ( Read more... )

Minor heart attackHoly crap, I almost forgot that D and I had our marriage license appointment today! I came back from my morning break at about 11:30 and my mind started going over the things I had to do this week. I suddenly realized with horror that I had scheduled our marriage license appointment at SF city hall at 12 noon! I quickly called ( Read more... )

Shower stuffIt just occured to me today that maybe I should think about what I'm going to wear to my bridal shower. I don't think I need to wear anything very dressy because it's going to be held at a Chinese restaurant. However, I'm ingrained to dress up for any type of special occasion. I was planning to wear jeans, but maybe I should wear a ( Read more... )

Dress fittingThe dress fitting appointment went well. M and I drove to Pleasant Hill after work to meet up with the seamstress. The bodice fits well, except the fabric on the sides panels of the bodice bunch ever so slightly. Bonnie will take in a smidge off the sides to see if it will help smooth out those panels. I'm also getting four more ( Read more... )
