Good Updates!

• We've booked our string quartet!
  
• I've registered at Bed Bath & Beyond and Crate & Barrel. Any other suggestions? I've heard horror stories about Target and Macy's so I'm hesitant. Quite frankly, after the Crate & Barrel gadget wall, I can't think of something else we'd need.

I feel at least somewhat successful. Whew.

To Do List (December 1st, 2008)

With just 4 months till the wedding and 5 months till the reception, I know I'm in a bit of a crunch to get everything planned.

Tomorrow, my goals are:

• find a venue
• do a first visit to find a wedding dress (at David's Bridal)
• call Rabbis and possibly find a location for the ceremony
• possibly book the string quartet we wanted at the reception

We are highly considering Martin's, a locale caterer/all-in-one MD/Baltimore/DC chain to host the reception. Our goal is a sit down classy meal, with a string quartet in lieu of a regular DJ.

The colors I have selected are:
either a mint or spring green
chocolate brown
ivory or white
and an undecided accent color

For a dress, I will be visiting David's Bridal and am highly considering purchasing bridesmaid separates in white since I am looking for something with sleeves and our budget for a dress is not particularly high.

I know there are tons of other things to do! We have already registered at Bed Bath & Beyond (though it's rather bare so far) and Amazon (nothing selected yet!). Stay tuned. I'm sure we'll be adding more items in due time.
