Wedding Plans

We got bridesmaid dresses now too! They are a beautiful plum. Well done Natalie and Katie! Oh, and my wedding colors are officially plum and silver:) I think things will look lovely with those colors. Would you all like to know who is going to be in the wedding party? Of course! Bridesmaids: Natalie,Katie,Kasey,Elizabeth, and nicks sisters:Maddie and Hallie. The Groomsmen: Preston,Derk,Jacob,Beau,Wade,and Carter. It'll be a good-lookin party to have in our pictures!

Nicholas and my wedding date is set for March 21st in the Manti temple. We have changed the date a few times, but i'm pretty sure it will stay at this one. As for the reception...there are still many complications (well not too many, but some big ones). And we aren't sure what or where to have it yet, sadly. We booked Liberty Hall in Manti to host the reception, but have many disagreements over the subject. However, it is beautiful and perfect. You can go to the site and look at it. But maybe don't. Because then everyone will be as disappointed as I if it turns out not to be there...

Wedding Dress Madness!!

So yesterday Natalie, Katie, Kasey and I went wedding dress shopping. It was really fun going out with the girls:) We had a great time joking around, laughing, and just being all excited in each others company. We all drove up to salt lake to check out a few stores. We went to Latter-Day Bride first. That place wasn't so great. They only have one or 2 sizes of each dress and the dresses are only try-on ones. So you have to order the dress you want...which takes SIXTEEN WEEKS!! What if the size you order doesn't even fit when it comes in? And seriously, we live in UT...people don't plan their weddings very far in advance here. Anyways, we found 2 dresses we really liked, but they were ridiculously priced (Like $850), and would take forever to get in. Even the rush order takes 10 weeks but costs at least $80 extra! And all the bridesmaid dresses were ugly and overpriced. Needless to say, we went elsewhere.

We went to David's Bridal which only had a selection on 4 modest dresses. And one modest bridesmaid dress. ha. I tried on 2 of them and the girls tried on the bridesmaid dress..which was ok looking. Surprisingly, one of the wedding gowns looked really good! AND was on sale for a really reasonable price! So after prancing around in it for like 1/2 hour trying to decide if it was the one, it really grew on me and we bought it (after calling mommy and getting the credit card number;) Thanks mom!)! I HAVE A WEDDING DRESS NOW!! So now, we really need to be looking for bridesmaid dresses. We need 6 of them..and apparently shipping them in takes a while, so i'm a tad worried about that. Not to mention, i haven't even decided on my colors!! So if anyone has suggestions or input on wedding stuff/dresses..i'm more than open for it:-)

Halloween!

Nick's Mom had a big halloween party at her house and Nat and the kids came along:)

Luke is scaring the camera..as if he could. Cutest vampire ever! Nick and I are Julius Cesar and Cleopatra in case you couldn't tell.

The Beginning..Jazz Games

These were from sometime last year when we kinda first started going on dates..ha. Nick took me to my first NBA games, and still brags about it:)

Nick's Family Reunion Last Summer: Bear Lake and Minnetonka Cave

Bear Lake was so gorgeous! We went boating earlier in the day.

His mom wanted to take some pictures because the scenery was so pretty there.

Haha..he's gonna kill me for posting this! Each family at the reunion was supposed to put on a skit for the Grandpa's 80th birthday..Nick's family decided to go Hawaiian.

We took a guided tour of the cave with his family the next day.
