Considering the fact that we’ve been married almost 2 years now, I thought it was about time to update my blog. The wedding was amazing, we bought a great house in Vernon, and got an adorable puppy named Kara Thrace (see her photos in our gallery!). Things are going pretty well for us and we try to get out and dance as often as possible. Stay tuned for updates as I try to post here more regularly.
Hi all!
So, some recent wedding things: We met with the people at the Spring House and we’re all set for the ceremony and reception outside on their patio.
We will also have our ceremony on their front lawn overlooking the ocean.
So I’ve kind of been slacking on my blog, and Michael’s tell me I should blog more, so here goes… I’ve actually been getting lots of stuff done this week because I’m on vacation from teaching and actually have some free time! We’re meeting with both the florist and the Block Island Reception site this Sunday, so that will all be finalized soon. I’m so excited! I’m also working on figuring out the details for the At-Home Reception, so information about that should be going out soon. Other than that, I’ve been able to do a lot of the fun wedding stuff like picking out Ruth’s (my maid of honor) dress and deciding on decorations and flowers. I know it all sounds boring, but it’s a lot of fun for me. Oh, and one last update since my last blog: a good family friend of the Delaneys (Paul Sawyer) has been wonderful enough to offer his services as an officant for our wedding. Yay! Ok, I think that’s all, but I’ll keep you posted as more happens!
I had an incredibly productive day today and actually got a few things done for the wedding! We’re going to a cake tasting this week, and we also went to try on rings today. Yay!
The real reason I’m posting is because we spoke to the Spring House today about available rooms, and while they require a 2 night stay for weekends, they have 5 rooms available for the Friday/Saturday combination and 8 rooms available for the Saturday/Sunday combination. They’re going fast though, so if you do want to stay where the actual wedding will be held, contact them soon. If not, call a different hotel soon.
Okay, well I don’t have much else to share and don’t know if anyone else is actually reading this, but I’m excited!
Hi everyone. And welcome to my first-ever blog. A place where I can ramble on about anything and everything wedding related. Things have been kind of crazy since we moved up the wedding an ENTIRE year, but they’re calming down a little bit. Michael’s been wonderful and has been handling the details until I finish student teaching in a few weeks. I can’t wait!
As for wedding stuff, we’re heading out to BI soon to finalize ceremony and reception stuff as well as meet with all of the different vendors. I also ordered my dress, which is really exciting. We also mailed out save the dates, which is probably how you knew that this website existed.
The main thing I have to say in this exciting first post is that if you are planning on staying on the island for more than just the wedding day, please call ASAP for hotel rooms (see our “Hotels” tab on top of the site). The wedding is in the midst of tourist season, so rooms tend to go fast. I can’t wait and I’m so excited to share our happiness with everyone. Yay wedding!
