Have I Mentioned...

...that I looooove wedding planning?! It seems like things keep falling into place. I got my dress last week, and today I got two more pieces of really great news.

1. My mom came to visit today, and as we were sitting and chatting, she told me that she had some good news and some bad news for me. I told her to tell me the bad news first, and she said that she had called the Botanical Center, where I want to get married, and that it was booked on June 2, 2012. My heart sank; I was so sad! Then she smiled and said "By you!" Apparently she called and set up an appointment and is signing the contract this week! So naturally we squealed and jumped up and down. She's so sneaky, but I'm so thankful to have such a selfless and thoughtful mom. So... I am OFFICIALLY getting married June 2, 2012 at the Quad City Botanical Center! Yaya!

2. Later today, I got a reply to a message I sent on Facebook a long time ago. (P.S. Gotta love social media for tracking down people! :)). It was to the woman who took my senior pictures when I was in high school. She was awesome, and I wanted to try to book her for our wedding. I finally heard back from her today, and not only did she agree to take our engagement and wedding photos, but she said the sweetest things and is essentially charging us what she does her family. So I'm getting an awesome photographer that I already know at a fraction of the price of many others I've looked at. And we don't have to pay her for quite awhile, meaning we can save up for other things right now.

I really do love planning my wedding! :)
