Wedding and honeymoon plans coming together!


Yesterday we bought our tickets for our honeymoon.  Yay!  It's all coming together... spending the big bucks on plane tickets to Hawaii makes it a little more real.

Thanks to family rewards points, we are staying at the Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa in Honolulu.  Ever been?  It is a pretty big hotel near Diamond Head on the south part of Waikiki Beach.
Neither of us has ever been to Hawaii, so despite the cliche of honeymooning there, we are doing it!  We are soooo excited.  It's not till the end of August, so sometime shortly before I go I'll have to collect suggestions of places to go and things to do on Oahu.

As for the wedding... I ordered the fabric for my bridesmaids' dresses this weekend, also, which was another big step!  I am excited to start making them although I want to hold off for a while in case any of my bridesmaids change size.  It'll probably only take me a day or so per dress so I could wait if I wanted to, although it's also something I can easily just get out of the way.

I ended up choosing this light grey stretch sateen from Fashion Fabrics Club.
You may remember my deliberations in an earlier post about my bridesmaid dresses.

Anyway last night I had a terrible dream that it was the day of our wedding and nothing was done, and we were all running around like crazy at the time when it was supposed to start.  I am very glad I still have 5 months to do things in real life.  In some ways, though, that's not very much time!  I am super super super excited!!!!
