wedding update...

When I started this blog my intention was to update everyone on my wedding but so far it has been posts on anything from the wedding to random things that happen to me throughout the week. So I decided I would update you all on wedding stuff! This past week was spring break for Nate and I so we got our engagement pictures done in downtown Fort Worth, I love downtown pictures with the street signs and building in the background, they are my favorite. We went on Thursday afternoon and it was a lot of fun. We are definitely not models but we sure did have fun pretending, we were walking down the streets having a photographer tell us how to pose, kiss ect.. it was pretty hilarious.

The three most comical pictures were:

1. Nate kissing my neck-the photographer kept telling him to kiss my neck and for me to be serious,this was never going to work. Not only because it was kind of weird, but when I get uncomfortable I laugh alot!
2. Serious Pictures- we are not good at these! I can smile and that's about it, finally he would say, "ok..serious but NOT angry!"
3. Nate dipping me in the streets- its cute in pictures and sweet but it was not cute for us at all! First of all it made me nervous and I thought Nate was going to drop me so I was really tense and wouldn't lean back enough, then I would start laughing and that made it worse! So those pictures look like Nate is attacking me or trying to kiss me against my will.

BTW, I got my dress in! It fits perfectly and I love it even more than I did when we bought it.

Bass Hall/Maddox Muse Center

So I went to Bass Hall today to look at the building again and make sure it was big enough, I know it seems a little late to be checking that but I will explain why.... About two weeks ago, Rachael and I were going in the building on a Friday evening because she had not seen the inside. Well, there were people there setting up for a party ( I HAVE to mention that it was for a 9 year old, and the whole building was rented out!! My parties were at my house.... but if my parents had offered the bass hall I guess I would have said ok!! :) ) Anyways, we walked into the Reception room and there was a lady setting up and we got to talking, so I mentioned that I had invited a certain amount and she instantly goes, "oh, that will never fit in here." You can imagine my face, or the million things racing through my head like, what am I going to do, where will people sit, and just freaking out. Thankfully there was a bass hall employee there who assured my they seat more than that number all the time with a dance floor.Well I went ahead and stopped by today to take a look for myself again and talked to the event planners who put my mind at ease and even noted that they seat that many people with the bar and buffet in the room ( my bar and buffet will be in another room so even more space!) They assured me I would have a large enough dance floor and said that I have nothing to worry about.

While I was there, I got a few pictures of other weddings I thought I might add just so you can see what the building looks like!! *** Note-I am not decorating my wedding like these at all, they are just random pictures I chose. These pictures are just to give you an idea of the rooms, layout and I thought you might want to see some pretty pictures.
