110 days!

Almost down to double digits!

Here is an update:

1. Tuxes have been picked- The guys simply need to be sized. It's incredible to me how simple men's wear is. We walked in. We picked a tux. We picked 2 vest colors (groomsmen and dads). We picked a shirt style. Then we chose the style for the cufflinks etc. They measured Matthew and DONE. 30 minutes later we walked out with a complete order. Amazing.

2. The menu is in the works and we are both SO excited about it!!

3. We are cake tasting in May and Matthew can't wait. I'm pretty sure he has been looking forward to cake tasting since the day he asked me to marry him. He even threatened to not come to the wedding if he didn't get to do the cake tasting. No worries- the tasting is scheduled and Matthew will be there!

4. We picked invitations! The whole ordeal only took 2.5 hours and we were completely done. I was incredibly impressed at how efficient we are getting at decision making. We browse, we narrow, we pick and we get down to the details. I am so excited about them and I think they are going to be perfect! We also found an amazing person to work with- Jennifer brown with For Now and Forever Invites in Milwaukee. She is so helpful, yet absolutely pressure-free. She made the entire process fun and painless and we could not have asked for a better experience!

5. One pair of my shoes are ordered. Still working on the other one. Also working on some other small accessories.

6. Bachelorette Party and Bachelor Party are in the works as well as one more Bridal Shower!

7. We are getting down to the details of the wedding and I am loving it! I am working on ideas for escort cards, guest book, and small personal touches.

110 days! We can't wait to share our Big Day with all of our loved ones!
