October Update

Likely Date: June 16th
Likely Venue: Chateau Cartier
Colors: Maybe Blue - although I still really like the lilac color, it's like blue with a hint of red thrown in the mix.

Next Steps: Finalising a Wedding Party, Finding a Photographer, then finding a florist after I figure out if we want flowers as a centrepeice, or a mix.

=)

Venue Hunt Finished!

Hurray! We've finally leaned so much towards Chateau Cartier, that we've decided to do it! =) June 16th it is! yes! =) That's in 228 days! That gives us 32 weeks to get everything together! oh yeeeaaaah!

Favours are my Favorite!

=)

Looking at favours is so much fun! There's a bunch of really cute and creative things you can do, I love it! There are picture things, edible things, personalised things, and the list goes on, it's fantastic - the sky is the limit. When my internet speeds up a little, I'll try to post up a few so you know what I mean.





Hope that all is well,
Nora

Top Two

Alright, so Jeff and I have limited to a top two list!

Hurrah! *still jumping in excitement*

The options are:
-the Chateau Cartier on June 16th, 2007
pro's include an excellent rain plan, a beautiful place, and a dancefloor wherever we like (read central), free parking...! But it's mid June (maybe a bit early if I have a teaching job)

- the Villa Lucia on July 7th, 2007
pro's include having a larger reception area with nice decor (on walls etc.), the date we wanted, proximity to Andrew Haydn Park (nice place for wedding and wedding pics), free parking ...!

Alright, so that's pretty much it for now, a huge update in my eyes, but we'll see. Now to figure out an exact wedding party.

Cheers,
Nora

Venuing

Man - who thought it would be so hard to find a place for July 2007. It's crazy!
The Museum of Nature is now booking for 2009, with the exception of one room. Hey , if there are any parents out there - you better book a hall for your child's wedding - even if they are only 12 right now. Craziness!
Chateau Cartier (a great place) already had every Saturday booked for summer 2007 (except one) a few months ago.
So it feels like there's total pressure (a fire under our asses) to find a venue. Hopefully my next update will be the date and place :)

But before I get to that - rain planning isn't so great either. Like how do you fit 200 people into a little corridor? hmm...
