Happy Friday Friends!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful day so far and getting ready for a lovely weekend! Well, after being engaged since December 24, 2008 - I guess it's time to finally start planning a wedding! After taking my first board exam, I finally have a bit of time to do some research. It may prove to be a bit challenging as my current location is going to be between Boston and Chicago or Virginia, and the wedding will be somewhere on the West Coast - SoCal style. Always up for a challenge! I always just wanted something sweet, romantic, and low-key. Good music, good food, and great family and friends:) If I can find a venue that includes everything - and if I can just show up with in my white wedding dress and a bouquet of pink flowers... all the more lovely!
In a matter of a night, I was able to find an ideal location. Oh internet, I love you so... you make planning a wedding cross country par simplified! Since having a wedding in California is very important to my Mom (where my family lives), it was a natural and easy decision. After doing a little bit of research, I was able to find a garden wedding venue with that French Country charm. This sounded soooo perfect as I have always dreamed of having a little garden or a greenhouse someday! What made it even better? It is located 3 blocks to the beach - of which my fiance loves! The ceremony and the reception can be done at the same location as well. If all goes according to plan, this thought will be set into motion sometime in the Fall of 2012. Perhaps in consideration is November 2, 2012... 11 years to the date after we first met... LOVE!
XoX,
