So, welcome to my Wedding Blog! I’ve never done a blog before but I figured it would be a neat idea to record the planning process of probably one of the most important days of my life… MY WEDDING! The date is set for August 7, 2010. I have been super excited about planning I got a lot of things done already. The venue is booked at the Sheraton Reston. Our ceremony and reception will be held there. Both Kesar and I really wanted an outdoor ceremony and the space they have there is absolutely beautiful. It’s a gorgeous rooftop patio space that is very modern and nontraditional. We are very happy to be holding it there!

I have started meeting with florists. (Kesar puts this in my hands and trusts me which is one of the reasons I love him.) I have met with 3 already and still have 1 more I want to meet with. All the flower arrangements are already decided, its just a matter of finding someone I want to work with and of course, fits my budget.

(inspiration)

As you can see from the picture above the colors are aqua, bright pink and orange. I really wanted aqua and pink, but figured I needed another bright color to include with the flowers, so that’s where most of the orange is. The bridesmaid’s dresses are aqua and will be long and flowly! My dress is already bought. It was a very easy shopping experience because it was the first place I went, last dress I tried on and was 70% off. It’s picture perfect so who couldn’t pass up on that?! Also, it was the last one they had and it just happened to be my size and color… umm, fate?

So I know exactly what I want for everything now it’s all about actually finding people to do it. I already decided that all the paper products are going to be DIY, as well as some of the more simpler flower arrangements. This will save me some money but let me have fun with the crafty parts too! I’ve gotten a lot of comments about how I’m really getting a lot of this stuff done fast, and I guess that’s partially right. But also, I figure if I do it at a steady pace I won’t have so much to worry about later Plus, it’s tons of fun!

Till next time! <3
