Another beautiful day at the Cloisters!


Photos are courtesy of Ricky Chung Photography.
Today, the weather was gorgeous! It's mid March and it was 75 degrees sunny... PERFECT!!! Every time Drew and I have gone out to the Cloisters no matter what time of year it is it's always so nice out so, I really hope we have good weather on our wedding day. We picked up Andrea and my Mom and drove out to the Castle. We were running 20 minutes late and when we pulled up my Dad, Jase, Emily, Wendy & Jeremy (DJs), and Ricky & Erica (Photographers) were waiting on the steps for us. After we did are "hello's" and "hugs" Drew and I walked around the back of the castle to take some photos by the windmill. We felt really comfortable with the photographers and they are using these photos for the cards. Ricky said he would email them to me in a few days so I can use them as well. Everyone loved the food that Daniel made and were very excited when I told them he was our caterer. I finally was able to talk to "Annie" the coordinator of the Cloisters and we went over the layout with the tables and gave the DJ's some good ideas. I was also able to nail down our rehearsal date which oddly enough we were able to have the 14th! It was really an exciting feeling today with a group of our friends and family. I'm really looking forward to our wedding day!

Open House!

My Mom picked me up and we drove out the the Cloister's for an open house they were having and Dad met us there. It was the busiest opening I've been too so I wasn't even able to sit down with the event coordinator "Annie" to go over the ideas I had for the layout of our tables. Mom fell in love with the castle just like everyone does when they see it. Drew and I knew it was perfect for us as soon as we drove up to it. It was great being able to capture these photos of the big blizzard we just had not that long ago! It was nice to run into our caterer Daniel, too bad Mom and Dad didn't get to met him. We had to leave early for Aly's birthday party so I didn't get to talk to all the vendors there. Which means Drew and I are going to have to go back up so I can talk with Annie, which is fine with me.
The PINK room is where me and my girls will be getting ready and the room next to it is Drew's room. The guys will like that room since it has stairs that lead right down to the bar.
Drew is definitely giving me my fairytale wedding! I know it's going to be a dream come true and I can't wait till May 15th!
Later in the day Drew asked my brothers and Chris to be in the wedding and I was able to capture him asking Chris. :)
