wedding bee! bZzzzzZ!
Just a couple of updates for ya...
Theme:
I was thinking to myself, what patterns and designs do I think of when it comes to Drew and I? ... HA! Nothing really, but then I thought about our life together. Our love affair has dated back to 1997 when we met in 7th grade.... so thats where I can up with the vintage idea.
I originially just wanted to do Modern Chic, but I thought, why not combine the two.
Then WAH-LAH, I thought of Modern Chic with a Vintage Twist. I already have some great ideas in my head for centerpieces, place cards, Save the Dates, etc :)
Venue:
Today, my parents and I looked at the Westin in town center, Virginia Beach. Orginially, we were thinking this is way out of our price range. Considering the amount of guests, venue, accessibility, etc... I think the Westin is home to our future wedding reception! I instanty fell in love with the venue when we were touring.
It takes a lot to impress my mom if you dont already know that about her.. she was ready to write the check for the deposit today! haha.
The only thing left to do is bring my in-laws, just in case they don't like it. I know we were thinking of other venues, but it just felt right at the Westin. I would have loved to do it at the Contemporary Art Center, unfortunately the venue does not provide catering, bar, etc. We will all be too busy to be worrying about that the day of.
I would like to secure the venue by the end of this month. I will not be traveling until September, so I would really love to start looking for dresses this month and/or throughout August. As always, I will keep you updated :)
