Now I just need a date...

Well, that has a double meaning, but in this case, it actually means that P & M have the place. They are just waiting to see when the place is available. We've talked on the phone several times making plans and I offer advice. I've been to so many weddings that I can answer just about every question she has. My biggest word of advice to any bride... get the best photographer you can. At the end of the wedding, you'll have two things -- your groom/bride and your pictures. Very few of the brides or grooms have many memories of the day because there so many things going on and they are nervous and anxious and there is so much adrenaline that the day rushes by and there are very few very clear memories. A good photographer will capture the day and fill in the gaps in their memories.

::::Photography plug over::::

Also, a word to all those grooms out there who have no idea what it costs to put on a wedding, please listen when the bride says that you are nuts when you think that "that much" should be plenty. Before you say anything, multiply your estimate by 4 and then you'll be closer to the rough estimate.

But, now that they have the place and the groom has a better idea as to what the whole thing will cost, headway has been made. Yeah!!

I don't think Paul paid attention to how much anything cost. However, he was surprised at how many flower choices there were. He said he thought there'd be about three choices for us to pick from and then we'd be done with that chore. Going to the florist was a little overwhelming for him.
