Well the wedding plans are coming right along much to Scott’s chagrin. He wanted to enjoy being engaged for a while before we started planning. Now I totally understand that and if he wanted to wait a while to get married I might have just enjoyed it for a while, but no the boy wants to get married like tomorrow. Which is very cute and romantic but boys don’t understand the amount of time and energy it takes to put a wedding together.
I have picked a reception venue and am in talks with the people. We just have to sign the contract and give them a nice fat check and we are good to go! I will officially tell the world where once all that has happened. Finding a church has been a whole different story. Apparently a lot of churches in the city won’t let you get married there unless you are a member. Well I think that’s crap! I'm an Episcopalian just like them and because my parents didn’t want to drive all the way down to midtown for church I can’t get married there. Ridiculous! I went a little bridezilla on them. I know I'm going straight to hell! So anyway the church is still up for grabs. We will see what I can do but it probably won’t happen until after Thanksgiving.
I have plans to try on dresses when I'm home in Atlanta and I have some ideas for the rest of the wedding so I'm feeling good about it right now. We will see how long that lasts...
Tomorrow we are going to have Thanksgiving dinner at Scott's sister's aunt's house which is his ex-step mom's sisters house. It definitely won't be the same without my family but we do get to spend about a week together during Christmas. LA has been experiencing a cold snap the last few days so it definitely feels a little like home.
On Friday we are headed to Vegas to meet up with Scott's best friend John and his girlfriend. John is a huge gambler so he stays for free and he is letting us use some of his points for a room. We are staying at the ever classy Flamingo. I'm excited! I haven't been to Vegas since LHD's bachelorette party. Both Scott and I have the always important Vegas outfit and will definitely have pictures to post from the weekend.
Happy Turkey Day and good luck to Susan on her half-marathon!
