BRIDE-TO-BE BLOGGER CAROLYN: BLOCKING HOTEL ROOMSPosted by Carrie Denny on 11/18/2011 at 11:33AM | 1 Comment
 Photo courtesy of ThinkStock.com. Last week was a pretty big wedding-planning week. We got our engagement pictures back (more on that in a later post), shopped around at a couple more florists, and toured some hotels to block rooms. To be honest, I was originally pretty ambivalent about hotel choices. But then recently, we went to a wedding in Washington, D. C. that had an amazing hotel booked—so I became a little more invested in our choice. |
BRIDE-TO-BE BLOGGER DANIELLE: HONEYMOON BOOKED! (MORE OR LESS)Posted by Carrie Denny on 3/25/2011 at 8:00AM | 1 Comment
 The Dreams Villamagna Resort in Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. Last week I mentioned that Tim and I decided on a location for our honeymoon. We decided to go to Riviera Nayarit, which is in Mexico, north of Puerto Vallarta. And we decided to spend the first half of the trip relaxing at a full-service, all-inclusive resort, then heading to a more rustic hotel to hide out and take surf lessons, among other activities. First, Tim’s passport arrived already. When they say “expedited” they really mean it! That was two weeks flat, for those who are counting. |
BRIDE-TO-BE BLOGGER DANIELLE: DECISIONS, DECISIONS (RINGS? GIFTS? HONEYMOON!)Posted by Carrie Denny on 3/17/2011 at 7:47AM | No Comments
Ordered wedding rings. We spent just over an hour at Steven Singer Jewelers on Saturday afternoon, and selected wedding bands for both of us. Tim had purchased my engagement ring there, as well as another gift for me a few years ago and really liked his jeweler. After trying on approximately a dozen rings, I narrowed it down to two. One of them — gorgeous as it was — doubled our budget. That made the decision simple and I chose the band that matches my engagement ring. I also very loudly declared that a second band is definitely not my style, though I would not be sad to receive an eternity band for an anniversary gift five or 10 years down the road. Tim picked out his band all on his own, though my Jedi-mind tricks worked and he selected the one that I liked the best out of the six or so he tried on. I also ordered a special surprise to wear on my wedding day that will be my “something old” — but I’m not giving up the details on that! |
