SAVE THE DATE!!!!

So it has finally happened...we picked our wedding date and picked a wedding/reception venue within 48 hours LOL! Friday August 26th, 2011 I shall finally marry my man after 5 years of dating!! While he has been nice about letting me pick all the wedding colors and decorations his only request(though a big one), was that our wedding location be Thornewood Castle which thankfully was gorgeous!!!!

I have been frantically running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get all the major details lined up.  We currently have book the DELISSSHHH Branks BBQ for catering and could not be more excited!! Though it is technically not actually going to be BBQ that we are serving lol.

My wedding colors are green and different shades of purple which I have always wanted; thank the LORD Derek is OK with it ;) Even though he didn't have much say in the matter anyways haha!

We are still trying to nail down our photographer; however I think we are very close to picking one! I should have one picked within a day or two then our extremely delayed engagement pictures can be taken for invitations.

I have also secured my BEAUTIFUL bridesmaids!!!! My maid of honor is my best friend and beautiful sister who has put up with me longer than she probably cares to admit:
