A Very Wedding Friendly Day!

So, I figured out some stuff today! I had my hair crown braided and I think it looks fantastic. The woman who did my hair also does do weddings so we'll have to look into pricing for the braiding. And this was really without much of a brush out or anything and took about 5 minutes.

There was a woman sitting next to the woman who was doing the braiding who made these really lovely hair pieces and you can order them custom as well! I might do this instead of wearing a veil... Thoughts on the matter? It would, obviously, be done in white and red to match my dress and it's not completely set into my hair or anything and it's not completely centered on my head, but it gives an idea. I will see if we got another picture of it from Jason and Deana, they and Lauran all really liked it.

In other world news... I might have found The Ring! I really loved this one, it made my heart stop when I saw it... It's .53 total carat weight diamonds and 3 dark blue sapphires. It is well within our price range and it is a stunning ring in person. We went to Shane Company in Tigard and I was greatly impressed with their service and selection and pricing.

I also heard from MooseL today regarding ideas for the invitations and stuff so things are clickin' along really well! Starting to get people in contact with people... Jason and Deana have both made contact with Edwin and Deana made contact with Taen since she's making the cake topper and Deana is making the cake! We've had their and our friend Penny volunteer to help set up stuff and we've just been really starting to mold things. 

We started looking at ceremony stuff the other night too, since we're writing our own. I know what song I will walk down the aisle to! I heard it randomly on Pandora radio a few months ago and it took me by surprise! It's off of an album called Friends of Aloha which is an album of Hawaiian style lullabyes. It is a cover of Pachelbel's Canon in D, which I was NOT going to have! However, it's such a beautiful and intricate piece of guitar work that it's beautiful and amazing. Also I think I might have found the song for the processional before me... we'll see anyway! It is Concerto Grosso in C Major by Arcangelo Corelli. It was a beautiful piece!
