Updates!

It's been quite a while since I've posted but there's a good reason for that, I promise. Firstly, there's less than three months so it's getting down to the crunch. Also, we have a big move to look forward to at the beginning of April, so we're getting ready for that. We're also dreading the unpacking since the house will need to be presentable for the wedding so those unfortunate few who are staying with us will actually have a place to sleep, and possible sit and stand.

Lots has been done in the past few months. I'll do a quick recap.

We went for our cake tasting (yumm!) and decided on hazelnut cake with hazelnut butter cream between the two slabs, but wait, there's more! The two slabs will be cut in half and chocolate ganache and salted caramel will be between those. I can't wait to get more of that in my mouth! While we were there, Nina of Cake Studio taught us how to properly pose for pictures while cutting the cake. I just hope we can remember by the time the wedding rolls around.

We chose our wedding favours! Cakettes from Cake-ology (another Yumm!) They're going to be a dark chocolate and a white chocolate one with purple drizzle on top and filled with red velvet cake and cream cheese filling! Although we may change our minds since there are too many great options of cake flavors.

We have ordered this from Unity in Glass. We will mix glass shards instead of sand for our unity ceremony. Then send the crystals away and they'll be melted down and made into this sculpture. We thought it was a much nicer way our unity ceremony. As in, a lot prettier than a jar of sand or a candle or some knots.

 I found my shoes on zappos.com. They're Nina's which are supposed to be super comfortable. This pair was too big so I couldn't find out how comfy they are but I tried them on with my dress and they're perfect. I'm just waiting for the right size to be shipped here so I can get my dress fittings done and start dance lessons, yay!

Our cake cutting set. Not a lot to say about this.

I'm going for my hair trial in May and this is what I want to get. I'll have a ivory flower in my hair on the side and then also have a veil either in the top or bottom.

 Here's my mom in the dress she'll be wearing. So pretty and it will look awesome.

My grandma in a dress that's so her. It's blue with flowers and maybe a butterfly. Looks great!

Here's my rings! Top left is just my engagement ring. Top right is my wedding band (which is really a jacket) in the case. And the middle bottom ish is them together. The engagement rings slips in between and fits snugly. I'm a huge fan of it.

Here's Ji's ring (kinda). He got Epsilon (who also made my band) to custom make this Carlex band. The outside bands are thicker and the middle band is thinner and it looks slightly different than this but very similar. He's super happy about it.

We also got out awesome guest book from The guestbook store. It has pages for our invitations and a page for our reflections on the day itself. The guest pages have places for your favourite memory of me and Ji, where you came from for the wedding, advice for us and any favourite memories of the day. We're really looking forward to this because it will have more meaning to us than a signature on a page.

We've also chosen the meal options, picked some songs, and are working in invitations. There's also a lot more finished as well and only a bit more left to do but it's going to be a busy next two and three quarters months.
