It's Official

We both were able to look at our wedding destination and have agreed that this is the place to hold our big day. We are just waiting for the contract to come in the mail to sign it, yet it is already ours. How exciting we got the biggest thing out of the way hopefully the rest of the planning will be this easy.

We found the site

Today Jessica and her mother went looking for site for the wedding and were lucky enough to find the perfect spot on our first day looking. The University Club of Minnesota on Summit Avenue will be a great place for a wedding.


This will be the room that we get married in, right in front of the fire place. We will also have the dance in this room too.


After the wedding takes place we will ajorn to the terrace for cocktail and a great view of the river.

I won the lottery...ok not really

Jessica won tickets to a bridal show that she was thinking about going to but had forgotten until she was listening to 107.1 the Lori and Julia show. They were giving away 2 tickets to the first few callers. She decided to take her chances and won! Obviously, this is the reason why work kept her late on her last full time day on the job.

The Hunt is on

Since, Jessica has been offered a new position at a company more in her field she has decided to take one day in between jobs. On this day she and her mother will be pounding the pavement looking for the ideal place for the wedding and the reception. The goal is to find a mansion big enough to house our guests for both the wedding and the reception. Wish us luck on your big hunt.

How do you get so good?

We went to look at the lovely rubies as well as the sketch and rings that will be developed especially for this ring setting. The rubies are gorgeous and there are going to be 12 of them all together totaling 1.45cts and set in platinum. But was is disapointing is that I will have to go without my ring for a whole week and then another week right before the wedding. It will be a great surprise waiting to see what it looks like until we are standing at the alter. How am I ever going to make it a whole year in suspense?

Rubies

Today, Jessica gets to go pick between the two batches of rubies that Bill already narrowed down for her wedding bands. Yes, she gets 2 bands with 4 rubies on each one. The best part of all this is that Bill picked it all out, because he is just that good.

Thank you Bill, you are the best!
