October 10, 2009

Last night I booked another wedding for next year. I am so excited to help my friends Ashley Carroll and Bryan Hubbard (who I've known since 4th grade) plan their wedding. Their date is set for October 10, 2009 and they chose the amazing Arroyo Trabuco Golf Course to have their ceremony and reception. We have had an ABC event there and it was awesome. I can't wait to start planning with Ashley. We have already talked about some of her details and we have a lot in common with our wedding ideas! Thanks to both of you for allowing me to be a part of your big day! I am looking forward to it...Let the planning begin!

Sneak Peak

This beautiful couple got married on October 17th, and I was fortunate enough to be their coordinator. I just requested some pictures from the photographer and will be receiving them sometime in the next week. In the mean time, here is a sneak peak of the amazing pictures to come. Isn't this picture awesome? Check back soon for more...

On a side note, my wedding dress arrived yesterday at the bridal salon. I can't wait to pick it up next weekend! 6 months to go til I'm a married woman. Woo hoo!

Pictures on the wall

I have been wanting to put something on our wall in our living room because it has been bare since we moved in. I got a neat collage frame set for my birthday from my mom and dad and I decided that would be a perfect thing to put up. So last night, I got a bunch of our engagement pictures developed and arranged them in the collage. When Andrew got home from work, he helped me hang it up. It turned out really cute! It's nice to finally have something to look at instead of a huge blank white wall. Even if its 15 different pics of our faces!

Ignore the flash...I couldn't get rid of it!

Surprise 50th Birthday Party

On Saturday night, one of my best friends, Kristen, threw a surprise 50th birthday party for her mom and dad. Our families are super close and go way back to the 4th grade where we first met. It was so neat to see how surprised her parents were when the garage opened and 75 of their closest friends and family had gathered to celebrate. The party was awesome! Kristen did such an amazing job planning everything. She had cocktail tables all throughout the backyard, hanging lanterns, and balloons everywhere. In the garage, there was a jukebox, disco ball and strobe lights. The "Taco Man" came and prepared fresh tacos for everyone. There was also a margarita machine which was closely monitored all night (mainly by my fiance and Morgan) to make sure there was plenty of tequila flowing! Everyone had a great time! We all ended up in the garage dancing the night away - even my dad was dancing! These are just a few of hundreds of pictures that were taken that night. Great party Kristen! Happy 50th John and Debbie!
