It’s Really Happening

Who will be “that guy”All of our family and friends are starting to roll into town. Which can mean only one thing: It’s really happening. All of the planning and organizing is actually becoming reality now and Jackie and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. As excited as we are to get married, it’ll be nice to not have to plan a wedding anymore. We are really getting psyched about seeing all of our closest family and friends and hope that you all have a great time.

Wedding Thoughts

So our wedding is one week from today and everything is falling into place. And believe me, I’m very happy and excited about it, but this whole event has got me thinking. The wedding industry is just a big sham. DJ’s, Florists, Caterers, Wedding planners and the like are all ridiculously priced but “necessary” to have a wedding. Granted you need some sort of entertainment, decorations, food and organization for a wedding to be fun, but the outrageous prices that come about as soon as you say the word “wedding” are completely baffling.

Wow..

As you can imagine, with less than 2 weeks before the wedding, we are running around like crazy to get everything ready for the “big day”. We got our marriage license last week, Jackie has been putting together a bunch of decorations, we’re meeting with the DJ, talking with Ben at A&J for all the stuff we’re renting, and oh so much more. It looks like things are coming together finally and I hope everyone has a blast. I know we both will be ecstatic when the wedding finally comes because then we can sit back and relax and do absolutely nothing for the first time in what seems like an eternity. We both feel like we’ve been running around ragged since July and can’t wait to relax.

Don’t get me wrong, we couldn’t be happier to be getting married. We’ve waited a long time for this and are excited about our wedding, but with all the planning that goes into these things, it’ll be a relief when things are over. If Jackie wasn’t such an amazing planner and organizer and creative person, I don’t know what we would do because she is doing such an amazing job with planning our wedding.

I can’t wait to see all of you next week. Are you getting excited? I know I am.

Bachelorette Party

Well, Jackie is off to her bachelorette party for the weekend and you know what that means? No adult supervision for THREE DAYS! Oh man, this is going to be awesome. I’m totally going to eat Red Baron pizzas and drink nothing but KoolAid and beer all weekend. It’s gonna be so awesome. You know you’re all jealous. If you want to, you’re more than welcome to join me.. Just give me a heads up.

Actually, tonight I’m going to play some poker with the “Klingerman’s” and tomorrow I have some chores around the house to take care of and then Sunday is football and emergency clean-up duty before Jackie gets home. So if you see the house this weekend, please don’t say anything to Jackie..

Where did Frodo get his?

Jackie and I are going to go shopping for wedding bands this weekend. This should be interesting seeing as I’ve never worn a ring in my life. I also tend to get a little freaked out when I try them on and they’re so snug that they don’t want to easily come off. Do you guys have any suggestions on where to go shopping (remember, we’re in Chico) for wedding bands? Any tips on buying them? Can you buy a 6-pack of them just in case you tend to lose things?

When I dance they call me Macarena

Macarena! What!? We’re making a lot of progress with our wedding plans. Sheesh, whoever needs a year to plan a wedding is a wimp.

I met with the DJ company yesterday and I’m pretty happy with how things went. I just need to go through their mini-list of songs and pick out ones we want to play. The only thing I’m having a hard time with is our first dance song. I picked three for Jackie to pick from and she shot me down on all accounts. So now its up to her to pick some songs and I’ll pick my favorite.

Wedding Mode

Alright, so the wedding is 2 months away and now that we’ve finally moved to Chico we are getting in full-on wedding mode. We need to finalize the invitations and a DJ. Find and buy wedding rings. Finish getting decorations. Figure out what I’m going to wear (unless you want me to show up in my speedo’s). Jackie still needs to get her dress (see speedo comment). ( Read more )
