*NWR* Disney- Star Wars Weekend

*NWR*= Not Wedding Related 

 

 

We went to Disney a few weekends ago for Star Wars weekend. Josh has been dreaming of this visit forever! We finally set it in motion and it was AWESOME!!!  I haven't been to MGM studios in 10 years, so a lot has changed and I was brave enough to go on the rides. There's not much more to say, so I will let the pictures do the talking.

 

 

The first picture of the day with the Storm Troopers

Josh was so excited to meet and take pictures with any and all characters

Had to wait 45 minutes for this- well worth it!

We made our own droids (too bad we already have our cake toppers)

This is Tower of Terror, shit got real on this one. Pure love: Josh laughing at me, while I am terrified

Sheer adrenaline, This went from 0-60 in like 2 seconds

Had to try some hats on!

We had so much FUN!!!



Pictures

I have created a picture sharing site on Shutterfly where you can view and order prints of any photos during the engagement period and finally the wedding day!

It's hard to upload photos to the blog, because of size and quantity issues.

Enjoy!! :)

10 Months to go/ Wedding Wednesday

10 months until we are married!!!

What has been done:

• Hired day of Event Planners
• Save the Date cards picked out
• Boutonnieres picked out
• Engagement photo session is scheduled
• Round 2 of trying on dresses (we are getting closer to what I want)
• Booked Photographer
• Groomsmen are chosen
• Girls dresses have been selected and will be ordered soon

In case you have been living under a rock, you MUST visit Etsy it is an AWESOME site that helps the average-advanced craftsers. It's like going to a small boutique shops and finding all sorts of great hand made items! 2 of my items so far are from there. Also, I have never had a bad dealing with anyone of the shop owners. They are all so nice and willing to help!

So this is a very concise/short list of what should be done by now:

1. Officiant: We have one in mind, one of Josh's dad's family friends. We need to sit down with him and discuss what we want

2. DONE

3. Half way done, I have booked some vendors and haven't even looked into other. Will be getting this done by next update.

It is also Wedding Wednesday, as it is known to the blogging world (also known as Wordless Wednesday, for pictures, but we are sticking with wedding theme)
The Things We Would Blog, is a great blog in general, but her Wedding Wednesdays are the best!
So for this Wedding Wednesday lets talk shoes!

Why is it that (almost) every bride wears peep-toe shoes or strapy ones? I'm glad to start seeing the strapy ones fade out, but the peeps are still there. I personally do not like either. I will wear them if I have to, but it's not a go to. Heels in general are not a go to. I really like the way the classic pump looks, with maybe some added bling or wedding pizazz. Also platforms are in, which is a no go, because I'm not pulling a Kate and Tom, being taller than Josh, and with platform heels that happens.

These are AWESOME, no platform, has a little extra blig perfect for wedding day wear.

These are equally as awesome, except for the platform. I love the bejeweled look and the ribbons that tie!

These are very simple with the little heel embellishment and low heels. Very pretty and classic

I saved the best for last! I LOVE THESE SHOES! I want them, I must have them! Sadly I can't :(

They are from a UK store and have since been replaced with new stock. My shoes have to live up to these.
