Check, check, and check

My week off between jobs was not as relaxing as I thought it would be, but I got a lot accomplished wedding-wise. We went down to Williamsburg and finally decided on a reception site... Colonial Heritage Club. I was leaning towards Williamsburg Lodge originally, but after weighing the pros and cons Colonial Heritage was the clear winner. Our parents came down for the day and we showed them both sites we were considering. Colonial Heritage was everyone's vote. Of course, I was still undecided even after everyone's input. It was a HUGE decision to make, but I think it fits "us" best. Despite all the time touring reception sites and hotels, Chris found some time to play 9 holes of golf with Thomas. I had my clubs too, but Kingsmill was a bit intimidating for me... So I was caddy.



While down there, we also came across a travel agency that specializes in cruises. Chris and I have always planned to do a Mediterranean Cruise even before we got engaged. So, we found the perfect cruise for us with all the ports that we would want.. Barcelona, Spain, Nice, France, Florence, Italy, Rome, Italy,Naples/Capri, Italy, Athens, Greece, Istanbul, Turkey, Mykonos, Greece, Santorini, Greece, & Venice, Italy. It would be a 14 day cruise, but how often do you get to see all these wonderful cities all in one trip!

And last, but not least... I bought my dress. Yes, my wedding dress. I first saw it in the Bridal Showcase fashion show and it was the first one I tried in the store. I tried some other dresses, but this one just fit so perfectly. It's simple & sophisticated, and princess-y :-)
