Less than 7 months to go!!

Yesterday, Wednesday, February 8, 2012 marked 7 MONTHS until Graym and I say "I do"!!!!! However, I like today ALOT more because now I get to say that there are LESS than 7 months to go :D

This past month has been an exciting one indeed and the pressure to get everything ready in time is starting to build. We visited hotels to booked rooms for our guests, ordered our wedding bands (mine came in already!), and my wedding dress is currently waiting for me at the bridal boutique. I'll be going with my mom to try it on tomorrow (insert an uber giddy gal who can't sit still in her seat and is squealing with delight here). 

We've also began working on our registries and woah is that tough and surprisingly exhausting! Since Graym and I will not be living together until we're marriage, that also means we won't have an apartment to call our own until then. Without a clue to the size, colors, or design of our apartment, it's tough to determine just how much stuff we can fit in there. Currently we have gone to various store and clicked pretty much everything that we think we'll need, resulting in about 3 different dinnerware sets, 2 bathroom sets, multiple pots and pans, and other random items here and there because I was really excited to use the scanner :) We browsed through the store, stopping at every aisle to look at and ask one another:
"So, do you think we need these?"
"I dunno. Let's just put it on there just in case. We can always take if off later"
"Yeah, true."
"How many do you think we need?"
"I dunno."
"Two? Three?"
"I dunno."
"Well I'm putting three."

So there is currently two or three of everything right now haha. We now have to go through our lists, decide what we want to keep and take off, which ones we like best, and figure out what we still need to add. There is so much thinking involved and both Graym and I have gone home drained after doing the registries. It'll be so nice when it's no longer just a picture on a computer screen but an item to put in our very own apartment :)

With 7 months left to go, there is still so much to be done. My beautiful bridesmaids from up north will be heading this way in a few weeks to join my gorgeous bridesmaids from VA so we can pick out the dress that they will be wearing. I'm still working on my bouquet and florist appointments need to be made for the other flowers. The rehearsal dinner planning is underway, and some of the littler decorative details are falling in to place. Things are really starting to come together, and every day that goes by just brings more and more excitement and anticipation.

I can't wait to be his bride!!
