Ok, we finally came to our senses (well, me mostly) and realized that there is no reason to spend thousands of dollars on this wedding when we have lots of other wonderful ways that we could spend that money... like towards the loads of student loans I'm taking out for Chiropractic school!!!
We also decided that if we scaled it down, we could afford to do it early which is great because then, when I go back to school in January (not going this fall), I can concentrate on school by itself rather than planning a wedding!! We are having the wedding in our own backyard November 22!! It's going to be VERY small with just family and the wedding party. That afternoon we're driving down to Galveston and we'll leave for our week-long Caribbean cruise the next day! The weekend after we get back, we're gonna have the rest of our friends meet us at Cowboys (our favorite) for a reception party!
We're so excited about our new plans!! This works so much better for us and will be so much cheaper and WAY less stressful!! I've picked out all the decorations and made the bouquets and they turned out so great!!! We bought an arbor and decorations and a unity candle with a fall theme will go under the arbor. Also got a burgundy aisle runner and we'll be renting wooden chairs for the guests. We CAN'T WAIT!!
