Change of plan


So, this wedding has become way to stressful and lately I've been feeling like Carrie from Sex in the City the Movie! I just haven't had a magazine company come to me wanting to do a wedding story, that part I would love to do! Can you imagine getting to wear all those amazing dresses and than having your hair,make-up, and photographs taken by all those top pros! That would be awesome!

Like I have said before it's suppose to be about us but, we stress over making everyone else happy and not hurting feelings. I really don't know how people have small weddings. From the very beginning we always talked about wanting a 70 person max guest list. We've cut the list down numerous times but can't get below 100. The Cloister's max is 150 so that helped. If money wasn't an issue we would be having a 300 person wedding easy! I just want this wedding to be over with soon! I just want to marry Drew! I'm glad it will be a long time till I have to do any of this again with our daughter (if we are lucky enough to have one). I talked with our caterer "Daniel" yesterday and he really is an amazing guy! I would highly recommend him to anyone getting married or having a nice party! He's working with us in making the menu a little smaller but, just as delicious! He is also helping me get into wedding photography. I'm going to be working with his lower budget brides to get my name out there! Very exciting!!!

A Weekend full of Wedding Adventures!

Drew and I went downtown to check out a florist in the Canton area of Baltimore called "Crimson and Clover". Of course our directions took us the wrong way to her studio and we just took a chance and found it. The lady "Amy” was very nice and she loved my ideas! I made two print ups of what I was looking for and visioned. I told her we had a $2,000.00 budget so we will see what the proposal will say! I also told her I have expensive taste (always have) but, to help us pick maybe not as expensive flowers. Drew was a good sport and loves all the ideas and his boutonniere.

Afterwards, we headed through the city to the other side to meet with the caterer Daniel for “The Pantry”. Drew liked him right away and said he reminds him of his friend Razz. I can see that now. This tasting was off the wall! We sat at a table in his kitchen while we watched him prepare everything for us and he educated us on the food as well. We ate nine appetizers, two salads, two entrees, two sides, and two deserts! We were so full when we left! He even gave us the leftovers! Since someone else has already put down a deposit for our day he won’t be at our wedding but, will be sending over his best staff. That sucks but, he insures us they are just as good as he!

He did tell us to come back down to meet them and watch them cook so will see. All I know is our food is going to be amazing and our guests are in for a real treat! I forgot to take a picture of the one salad and it’s actually the one we’re going with and, sorry the one video is upside down... opps! ;)
