So, as of late, I have become quite the online connoisseur. Started up this blog to keep track of my crafts and record all the little steps along the way to planning our wedding, & now, after receiving a suggestion from one of my very best girlfriends -- I decided to create a wedding website on www.weddingwire.com. It is super easy to use and it has some extremely useful features such as an online seat planner & an RSVP option! Love both of those ideas!! It's also a really cool way to keep people updated on your wedding plans, show them your style, and let them in on how everything began :) I guess I just can't say enough good things about it, so check it out!

On another note, i found out that there are websites out there that will let you enter the url of a youtube music video and it will convert that clip into an mp3 file. In other words, you can download free songs onto your computer! Another awesome thing I discovered today. For some reason I didn't note the website I used, but I think  it's this one http://www.vidtomp3.com/. I used this to upload a song onto my wedding website! Neato!!

Lastly, I'm pretty certain that we have our Reception site picked out! We did go see the place last weekend and we also went garage sale shopping, (I have yet to post the pics of my findings :P). Here are some of my fav. pics of the tour!

Beautiful isn't it!! This is along the side of the reception site, perfect for fun pictures & outdoor games oooooooh!


I thought it would be cute to line up the bridal/grooms party here & have them sit boy/girl and snap some shots - of course the Bride & Groom will be in the middle :]


This picture doesn't make it look that big, but out on the patio is where the tables are going! Outdoor reception!!!! So excited!



& here is the front of our place. It's called the Florida Federation of Garden Clubs. Cocktails will be held inside, dancing, and dinner will be outside. I feel like this place is a hidden gem! I wouldn't have found it if it weren't for a local photographer & I am beyond ecstatic that I did because pictures don't do it justice!!

It seems as though this is just the sort of place that we were looking for, somewhere to host our vintage inspired laid-back wedding. Sometime this coming week we will hopefully secure our date, so one of the biggest tasks on our to-do list will be fulfilled! Next up is to contact the Church and then start looking into different caterers. In the meantime, I'm going to focus on my schoolwork and do some garage/thrifty searching in-between.

Sounds like a plan stan - So much work lol just gotta take it one step at a time & hopefully the final product will make it all worthwhile :)
