Budd and Jessica are getting married!!!

OK so I am new to this blogging thing...but it seems like the thing to do these days....and after all...I finally have something besides mindless chatter to blog about!! So welcome to Budd and Jess's wedding blog...I cant promise that I will be logging in everyday to post updates...but I am thinking once a week is doable!!

So yes we are preparing for a wedding!!! I know how exciting!! We are both very excited to be able to go through this process of planning our wedding!! We are both very creative and want every aspect of our wedding to be our own. And I have to say that I am very impressed by the decision's that have already been made...and the plans that are already set in stone!! I guess I should start with the date...we have decided on Friday October 21, 2011 ...we met in October and we were both 21 when we met...so that's how we chose the date....and plus we wanted a fall wedding...we didn't want a hot wedding or a super cold wedding....so we figured October is a good month. So go ahead and write that on your calendars people October 21, 2011 is the date!!! OK so the second thing that has been decided are the wedding colors...we are going with white, black and hot pink (of course) ...we are both huge fans of white and black...and you cant go wrong with hot pink...and I am VERY excited!!!

So we have the date, the colors...and of course the wedding venue...yes you heard correctly...we already have the wedding venue...we decided on The Victorian House in Kaufman, Texas....and for those of you that have never been there....its sooooo pretty!! In fact when we went to tour The Victorian House...we didn't even want to leave!!! It was very comfortable feeling....I could just see us stepping away from the reception for a moment to take a breath, sitting on the huge rocking chairs on the wrap around porch...enjoying the stars and the laughter of all of our friends and family!!! We just fell in love with it...and we both instantly knew it was the place!! Neither one of us can wait to get married there...it definitely has a vintage feel...and we are both in love with vintage...so its perfect!!!

We have the photographer...in which I have to say I was getting a little worried about...who knew that photographers were so expensive?? Well let me tell you first hand...they are!! And also we are picky...we are very artistic...and we really wanted someone who could bring an artistic touch on the wedding pics...and man did we get lucky!! I happen to have a friend at work who is also getting married next year...and she told me about this local photographer, that one of her friends had used at thier wedding...and not only was his prices reasonable...but he was very good....so naturally I had to check him out!! His web page is sixfourteenphotography.com ....so if anyone gets a chance, check out his web page....I was instantly impressed...and of course emailed him right away....so Sunday August 29, 2010 we have an appointment to do our engagement pics...and we are super excited!!!! Well I supposed I am done blogging for now...but dont worry I will be back!! I know we have lots of time...but I am a planner...and as a planner I figure the sooner we can figure things out....the smoother things will go!! I am planning on NOT turning into a bridezilla!!! So we will see how that will go!!!

Toodles,
Jessica
