341 Days and Counting

Now that the semester is over (All As, woot woot!), I’ve got the time to update everyone on the wedding plans.

We’ll still be getting married on November 22, 2010 (that’s the Monday before Thanksgiving), but we’ve relocated to Asheville, NC. Planning a Florida wedding just wasn’t coming together, and once we started looking at everything Asheville had to offer, things just felt right…kinda like us.

And apparently it’s bad luck to reveal your honeymoon suite? I didn’t know this. So I won’t link to it, but I will tell you we’ve rented a cabin that’s way too big for us. It’s got 3 bedrooms, and sleeps 9, so clearly, there’s going to be too much extra space for us. But we don’t care. Because the cabin we’ve rented is the only one sitting on 260 acres, so we are COMPLETELY secluded. There’s a 1/2 mile path along a mountain stream that leads to a waterfall, and mountain views all around. It’s going to be GORGEOUS, even if we do miss the full splendor of the autumn leaves. Now, the cabin itself: Humongo fully stocked kitchen (which is important to us, as we’ll be hosting Thanksgiving Dinner for our families on Thursday), really awesome vessel sinks (this is less important, but the girl in me is totally overjoyed), a 4-person tub, and in the Master Bath? A 2-person jacuzzi tub AND A STEAM SHOWER. Yes. I’m convinced I need a steam shower in my life.

Both our venue and honeymoon cabin are reserved, with down payments pending. The next thing we’re working on is 1) finding a restaurant for our post-ceremony dinner, cake and toasts; 2) finding a photographer (I think I found one! I just need to contact her); and 3) Finding a wedding dress.

Really, after we get those next three things lined up (and those are fairly big things to line up), there won’t be too many big things left to do. I’m excited by this.
