CURRENT PLAN HAPPENINGS: Selecting Wedding Favor's


'09 SPRING BREAK---> 3 days!

XOXO,

Welcome Warm Weekend!

ALMOST 70 degrees here in the mountains of NC!

This week has been so productive!
Mr. H and I officially have our wedding photographer, Florist, Wedding Cake Bakery and DJ for the reception!

I am stoked to announce that Smitten Photography will be capturing my special day

The Enchanted Florist out of Asheville, NC has me hooked and convinced that they can make my wedding day one to remember...and they are more than willing to work with my tight budget!

The Bake Shoppe out of Weaverville, NC is a tiny little bakery with a huge creative abilities!

One of my good friends from college has been DJ-ing on the side for quite sometime and I asked her to do my reception. Besides the fact that she can keep a crowd dancing, she knows ME and knows my style....so it will be a great match!

YAY for getting things done! I feel so much better!


Tomorrow I am headed towards Raleigh to attend one of my best friends Lingere shower.
Along with some unmentionables (hehe) I bought her some cute panties that have things written on the tooshie:
I am so excited to give her my gifts and to see her blush a little bit :)
I love showers that celebrate Marriage!


Have a Wonderful Warm Weekend bloggies!
