There's not a ton to say about this set of photos, but it captures a lot of the dancing and fun times everyone was having both on and off the dance floor!
For our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner we opted to keep things super simple. Since it was an additional cost to have the rehearsal at our wedding venue, we decided to just do it outside at a park right next to our apartment complex. For the rehearsal dinner we rented the clubhouse at our complex and decided to do a pizza pool party, but unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate so we weren't able to use the pool. We ordered Mod pizzas for those of us with allergies and way too many Costco pizzas. People just weren't that hungry apparently. I'm really glad we didn't do anything fancy, because by that point in the week I was exhausted and a bit stressed, especially since the weather forecast for Sunday couldn't seem to decide if it was going to rain or not. I ended up falling asleep on the couch during the dinner, in cause you were curious on how wiped out I was by this point. Last minute (like, right before we were heading out the door) I threw together th...
In the almost 5 months we were engaged, we did a lot. We traveled a lot. We ran a lot of errands. We cooked a lot. We unpacked so many boxes. It was a busy time for sure! I thought I'd share some of the photo highlights we have from that season of life. We sent Alina a lot of ring shots. #sparkle Fun times during Camp Jitterbug. On our last day in Vancouver for Lindy Bout, I planned a surprise breakfast party for Kaleb's birthday. Meetings with our friend/officiant, Josh. Lots of unpacking after getting Kaleb's stuff back from smoke restoration. Fun times at Big Sky Weekend. Poker with the Millers, Tiana, and Daniel. Buying patio chairs at Fred Meyer. We bought a new dresser from Ashley Furniture at it was delivered a few days after my bridal shower. Instead of a company picnic at work, they took us to a Mariners game, which was lots of fun.
Seattle Wedding Show Bright and early on January 12th we made our way to the Washington State Convention Center for the Seattle Wedding Show. By this point we were already doing paperwork for a venue and had a photographer picked out, so we mostly went for the experience and to see what it was like. There were so many vendors, largely for venues, photographers, and caterers/bakeries a fashion show, and lots of wedding dresses. There was one boutique there, Tulip Bridal, where I tried on my very first wedding dress. It didn't fit well, but I did like the overall style of it. Dress Shopping at David's Bridal The following weekend, on January 19th, I had my first appointment at a bridal shop, David's Bridal. Since my family doesn't live in state anymore I asked Carrie and Katie to come with me, which I really appreciated. I was on the fence about having a floor length or shorter dress. Having a shorter dress would be much more practical for lindy hop, because y...
