Rehearsal 1

We are back from our honeymoon. It was wonderful-great food, perfect weather, relaxing beach. We'll give more details on that later. First we'll share photos of the rehearsal. Later in the week we'll add photos of the rehearsal dinner, wedding preparations, ceremony, reception, then honeymoon. If anyone has jpeg photos of any of these events, and would like to share them, please email me and I can put them up here.

My Shower Part 1

On Saturday, Martha, Lova, Jenny and Marne threw me a beautiful bridal shower. I had friends, family and soon-to-be-family in attendance. I was so overwhelmed with everyone's kindness, love and support, that I started to cry during my "thank you" speech, and didn't get to finish. Randy and I want to thank each and every one of you for your continued support and happiness for us. Now onto photos!

The tag read "Stephanie and Randy...A Perfect Blend..." 5. table-it held photos and beverages. More photos in the next post









I want to thank Lova for holding the shower in her beautiful backyard. The yard looked perfect and it was the perfect setting for the shower. Thank you Lova!
A big thank you to Martha. She put so much time and energy into the shower. Randy and I had a blast with her for the few days she was there. It was wonderful getting to know my future mother-in-law better. I will treasure that time.

Our honeymoon!

We are going to St. Lucia and staying at the Ti Kaye Village. http://www.tikaye.com.
We can't wait! It looks so beautiful and relaxing.

Shower

My 5 bridesmaids threw me a shower on June 3. They went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. Everything was decorated in pink and brown and the tables had beautiful floral centerpieces. Kris and Sandy made the mini cakes, cookies and ice cream you see in the photos. It was so nice to relax with great friends and share stories and memories. I have the best friends in the world. I am so lucky.

Invites just arrived!

Our invitations just came in. I really do love them. I was a little nervous that they would have an error, but they came out perfectly. Here's a sneak peek.

Just because...

Randy often buys me flowers just because. I love opening the door and seeing him stand on my porch with a beautiful bouquet. Reason #457 I love him.

100 Days

In 100 days, we are getting married! Can't wait. It is going to be such a wonderful day.
We have chosen our invitations, and we will be ordering them this week.
Our next step is to make an appointment to take our engagement photos.

Happy Easter

Sorry it's a little late. Randy and I spent Easter with John and Jenny, Jenny's mom, and Jenny's friend, Candi at the Highlands Inn in Carmel. It was beautiful. The food was amazing. I think everyone had seconds, if not thirds. Here are a few photos from the day.

We have a dj

Now we need to choose our invitations.

I bought my dress

Yay! :)

One of my favorite photos...

Thought I'd share this photo of Randy. It's one of my favorites. Just missing him.

My Bridesmaids

A few weeks ago, I invited 5 of my closest friends over for lunch (one couldn't attend). What they didn't know was that I was going to ask them to be bridesmaids in our wedding. Randy made a delicious Cobb salad, helped me clean the house, and planted flowers in my front yard. A few weeks prior, I ordered purses for the women and filled them with lotion, bath stuff, make up, etc. In each purse I included a note asking them to be in our wedding. They all said yes (of course).

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Randy's in town, and we went to Sweet River for dinner. The green beer was perfect!
