More Wedding Progress

We've checked some more things off the list.... Woo-hoo. The DJ is booked - we're going with Music Masters. Given the way that the Harbor Club room is set up with the DJ booth above the dance floor, these guys were pretty much our only option for music, so we thought we'd go ahead and book them. Please send any special requests for music to me - Ryan loves country music and line dances, so the more we play of that, the happier he'll be (haha!).

We have met with 2 photographers, Klose Photography and Perskie Photography. We have decided to go with Perskie for the wedding. We met with them yesterday and gave them our deposit. We all know how much Ryan hates having his picture taken (we've already warned the photographers that Ryan is like Chandler on "Friends" when it comes to pictures) and also looking at wedding pictures, so I think this is one aspect of the planning that he is grateful to be done with. He has been a really good sport about everything so far though... as much as he hates to admit it, I think he has finally come to terms with the whole marriage thing and might be starting to get excited about it. Of course, all the excitement is on the inside, so the only way I know he's ok with the wedding stuff is because he isn't too grumpy when we are talking about all the details. I'll take that though - no complaints here. I have included a link to Perskie's website below and also a direct link to an album for one of the weddings that they shot at Pier 5.

We have also started asking our family and friends to be in the wedding party and hope to have this completed within the next few weeks. Stay tuned for a blog post about that. We have narrowed the church list down to 2, and are just waiting until our #1 choice will let us actually book the date and make it official. August 20th is the big day for that since they won't let us book more than 13 months in advance! More details to follow shortly...
