five-month frenzy

May 5, 2008

Only 5 more months until the BIG DAY!  How exciting!  And frightening…  We still have so much to do, even though I feel like we’ve done so much already.

We started going through potential bible verses for readings in the ceremony over dinner tonight.  I haven’t ever really read much of the bible, but we found lots of good stuff tonight.  For example, dig into Song of Solomon (or Song of Songs, depending what bible you’ve got) for some flowery love poetry.  Emphasis on the flowery.

Jason’s also got all sorts of helpful suggestions for other readings on love… we’ll have to see what those are about.  So far, my favorite verses are the most popular ones (i.e., 1 Corinthians), so if anyone has any other suggestions for verses, please share!  I looked through all of the programs from weddings JT and I have attended (because, for whatever reason, I feel compelled to save things like brochures and invitations from every wedding we’ve ever attended).  Anyways, almost every wedding used the verse from Corinthians.

Other than that, we’ve got to pick some songs for the service, write vows, and attend to all sorts of details for the reception.  And I do want to sign us up for some dance lessons. <Jason groans> I hope all of you have been practicing your dance moves – you’ve only got 5 months to perfect them (ahem, Uncle Brian) before we expect you on the dance floor!!

    Just read your blog from May 5th.
    Jackie and I just got back from our Europe trip.
    We practiced our Salsa moves in Spain and are also great swingers. The dance, not the wife swapping, get your mind out of the gutter.
    Are you having a band or DJ?
