FLOWER FACTORY!

Today we hit the 50% off sales at the Flower Factory!  We were able to get many of the accent flowers and stems needed.....except for the main purple color.....but we have plenty of time to find them.  After that, we stopped in at David's Bridal.  Caitlin tried on some wedding dresses to get an idea of the style and color she likes before getting serious about wedding dress shopping!  We had a GREAT time! 

FIRST WEDDING PURCHASE!

Today, Caitlin, Ken and I went to the Flower Factory....we only had 30 minutes to shop but we found the first of many sparkly flower fillers which will be made up into beautiful arrangements.  We are going shopping again tomorrow.....best of all....these are 50% off!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS 2009!

POSSIBLE RECEPTION PLACE!

Grandma Betty, Caitlin, Joey and I went to look at the Palace Pavilion for the reception.  Here are some pictures....beautiful, but if we pick this place, the kids will have to compromise and change their wedding date of 9-10-11 due to the Popcorn Festival, which is the same weekend!  Here are some pictures without decorations.......Simply Beautiful!

This is the staircase that the bridal party comes down when announced!

This is the main ballroom floor!

POSSIBLE WEDDING COLORS

So far, this is the color scheme that caught Caitlin's eye! Plum, gold, creams and maybe some bronzes mixed in.  Time will tell.  It is still pretty early in the wedding planning phases!
