Blogging? .....Maybe!

We've got a wedding website, we've got our registries, why not blog about everything else along the way? 

When it comes to planning a wedding, we have no idea what we are doing. Scratch that - I, Kristen, have no idea what I'm doing. When I was helping with Steven's little sister's wedding it seemed so much easier (minus a few hang ups). I guess because this is actually about me (and Steven, of course!) this time, details seem so much more important.

However, with 81 days left to go, I feel like we've got a pretty good handle on this.

Ceremony & Reception location: check.
Officiant: Check.
Wedding dress: Check.
DJ: Check.
Caterer: Check.
Cake: Check.
Photographer: Check.
Bridesmaid dresses: No check. NOT looking forward to attempting this either. 
Groomsmen gear: No check. Eh, they're boys. They'll go for anything. Right?
Centerpieces: working on it. So far, so good.
Invitations: Check.
Honeymoon: No check. Should have booked a month ago when prices were half what they are now.
Excitement: kind of, sort of, not really checked yet.

We're in the poor house. This is not where I feel we should be but we are stuck here and there's no sign of exit. Maybe when there is more of a light at the end of the tunnel (and please God - I beg you, I plead, I am on my knees! PLEASE let it be SOON!) excitement level will go up and stress will go down.

Until then, here is the blog. The blog of being in love with my best friend and getting ready to get married. The blog of a bad economy and the lack of jobs for college graduates with no experience in said degree. The blog about planning a wedding and bridesmaid that are too far away to keep the bride sane. The blog about living with your parents when you should have been living on your own a long time ago. The blog of Kristen & Steven aka (the future) Team LeBeau!
