Countdown

I woke up this Saturday morning at 7:15 am (I guess my body knows what time I have to get up for work) and as I was checking my phone to see what time it was and I saw I had an email. I looked to see if it was spam or something interesting to read and the title of the email was "9 months to go." It was from theknot.com. I instantly was wide awake and in the gym by 7:30. Holy crap, only 9 more months. You might think I'm crazy, but 9 months will go by quicker than I know it -- (stop and smell the roses Mari!!)

So after doing some brainstorming on the treadmill this morning, I'm now looking over my checklist provided by the knot and reviewing my outline provided by myself. I leave for California on Wednesday and I'm set to meet with one photographer, but I'd like to have a couple more lined up as well. The best way to find vendors is through referrals, so I'm checking out real weddings and reading over some California blogs to see what they have to say.

I should probably not be listening to techno music this morning, but it's what's playing on pandora and its getting me hyped to get stuff done today. With a slight intermission today to attend Mr. Groom's company banquet, I'll be back on the computer this afternoon. Engagement photos are set for tomorrow and I think the weather is going to be nice to us and let the sun shine for a couple hours. My lovely cousin and bridesmaid is making the trip down to DC to take some shots of us in front of our nation's capital and a few other beautiful places. Tonight Mr. Groom and I will plan out our woredrobe (that spelling looks wrong, but my computer is not correcting me) - I'd like to match, he doesn't... so we'll se how this goes, maybe we'll compromise and do a little of both :)
