My first time getting on here and writing something after Ryan was so nice to put this together. Life has been more than a little crazy recently, finally got the Saratoga house rented, we got a new, bigger apartment in the city and I left my job to come down here. So between packing up the house, deciding what to bring, what to put in storage and what to throw out, getting everything from the house moved down, cleaning the new apartment so it was ready to be moved into, packing and moving Ryan’s apartment and unpacking it’s been a little busy. Add to that me looking for a job and being sick, I haven’t had a whole lot of free time on my hands.
I have started the planning process though, and we’ve started to book a couple things. Most important, we reserved the house where we will be having the reception, the ceremony will be on the beach in front of the house. This is also where we’ll be staying for the week along with the wedding party. The house is Sea Esta, it’s in Corolla in the Whalehead neighborhood. It had just about everything we were looking for, enough bedrooms, a big open space upstairs, right on the beach, and it’s around a bunch of other houses that are available for rent so hopefully everyone will be able to be close-by for the week!
We also booked our officiant, Jay Bowman, really really like him and am excited about that too! Plus, he looks a little like Brett Favre so I think that won Ryan over.
Plus, we ordered our Save the Dates and those should be going out soon. We ordered them from Bobbie, Darren’s mom, and she did great helping us find just what we wanted even though we went in there with really no idea of what we were looking for. If you are ever in need of invitations or any other stationary, we would highly recommend that you contact her.
Hopefully people check back here often, we’ll try to keep it updated with what’s going on. And I really hope that everyone can join us next October on the beach!
