Pics from the Shower in Leesburg:

The only BG bridesmaids that decided to show up... major points

Sandy, Kathy, Me, Ryan, and Robin = the hostesses with the mostess!

Ryan and I, happy couple!

Can't wait till the wedding! Sandy will definitely be on the dance floor with us!

It was a beautiful shower. We enjoyed all of it!

October has been busy! I went to get Dyan hitched on October 3rd. Her wedding was awesome, lots of great ideas, and she was a beautiful bride! oh and she had pretty awesome maids!

I can only imagine what their honeymoon was like!

The next weekend was my 28th Birthday!

That is me and my nephew! Isn't he so cute in his Gator Gear! Start 'em young! This was the weekend of our last shower in Florida, October 24th. It was a great shower, lots of GREAT stuff. Got some Vietri, some Waterford, some Lenox, etc!

At our shower in leesburg! This is our "milk pitcher" I love how organic the Vietri looks!

Fashion for the Men!

I need a vote: Do you like option 1 for the tuxes or option 2. The lady said that usually the groom does a different style than the groomsmen to stand out. I don't think that I have ever realized this.... Ryan will have a different boutineere than the other guys anyways....Take a vote, let me know! I won't say which one is my favorite or ryan's, but let me know what you guys think. They are the same vest, different tie.

Option 1:

Option 2 far away:

UPDATE!

I have tons of pics to update on here but it is almost 8 and I should be at work instead of drinking coffee and sitting on the couch.. soooo, this will be a word update and hopefully tonight I will post tons of pics

1. starting with my millry shower. It was a lot of fun. The invites were super cute and got lots of goodies of which I have not had time to write the thank you notes for!

2. Shower this weekend in Leesburg! Couples shower and ryan's family is also coming to leesburg for the first time! Need suggestions on how to entertain in the burg!

3. Invitations are OUT! We are already getting rsvp's! My favorite one so far: "we will be there with bells on"!

4. Birmingham Rojo, Stock the Bar Shower is November 6th. I am excited, hope that everyone can get to know everyone so the wedding can be that much more fun! Then on November 7th is the bachelorette party! Good times with all my maids - minus one.... :(. Heather quit work! haha

5. Ryan got his tuxes! They are black with a taupe vest and tie. I really liked the champagne undertones but he didn't and how could i say "but these will match my dress" without making it obvious! However, I did pick out the taupe ones and they add that organic dimension to match the bridesmaid dresses

6. Got my hair done, made all the appointments for the upcoming hair. I am gladly taking suggestions for my hair, it has to be up.

7. I am going to do a fun flower piece in my hair for the reception. I ordered it off of Etsy, will post pics on that as well!

8. also during my lag time, went to Virginia beach and got dyan hitched! It was a beautiful wedding with lots of good ideas! I will post pics of those too. I loved the dresses because I didn't have to wear a bra! That takes the prize for best dress in my opinion. And, I found these underwear called "hanky panky" and they DO NOT show panty lines. If you need something like this, i highly suggest these. I just can't do spanx!

OK, enough for now

I will be blogging lots more now that it is crunch time and mostly be asking for suggestions so please help out!
