Tuxedos


Finally, Ryan has set a date for the guys to go for their tuxedos! Here it is the moment everyone was waiting for---Sunday, August 6th; in the afternoon sometime. He figured that will be right after Alana and Chris' Wedding so Matt will still be here, plus by doing it in the afternoon it will give Jack some time to sober up. It is also far enough in advance that anyone who wants to come, but has to travel, ask for off, or both, can plan for it.

I don't know where he is going for the tuxedos yet, I would imagine probably After Hours or some chain like that. That way anyone who can't make it that day, can just call in their measurements to the store.

Let me or Ryan know if their is a problem with that day (or post it in the comments). We will do everything we can to make sure anyone who wants to go, can go that day.

Hair and a Few Other Things

On Saturday I finally went to get my hair cut and I talked with the lady who will probably be doing my hair for the wedding. She told me to bring in the veil and that we could do a few different things to it to see what is best. I've narrowed it down to two, one is this Princess Leia kind of thing the other is a down look. Since I'm not really sure of the rules though, I'm not going to post the pictures, so instead here is a picture of Princess Leia!

Also on Sunday we went for our second Pre-Cana class. Only one more to go!

Finally, my mom and I are in search of the perfect bra for the wedding. My dress has a low back and a regular bra will not cut it, but because my boobs (sorry) are big I can't get a bra built into the dress. If anyone has any suggestions as all please help! We tried Victoria Secret and the Crossings and so far both are coming up short.

One more thing, Ryan will have a date for the guys to go for their tuxedos in the next few days, I will let you know by the next post.

Pre-Cana

We had our first Pre-Cana meeting on Sunday. It was interesting. They made us take a scantron test. They separated guys on one side of the room, girls on another and then you had to answer all these questions (156) about each other. I guess after the sessions we go to the priest and then he evaluates us together. It's weird, I know.

There are three topics for discussion. The first week was Communication, the second week is Sexuality, and the final week is Finances.

There is a workbook and everything (no homework, thankfully). We go next Sunday again, then we get a week off for Father's Day, and then we go the last Sunday in June. After that I'm not sure when we talk to the priest.
