Count down begins... 19 days!!!

So the countdown has officially begun - 19 days until best friends become husband and wife :) And it looks like we get to be house mates too! Go figure.

God has blessed us with the opportunity to rent a brand new two bedroom townhouse in Crace - YAY!

If all goes to plan we will go and have a look at it tomorrow and sign the papers the following Wednesday - just in time to move some furniture in, get married and have our first night in our new home together.

Besides that exciting news we have finished all of the order of services - thank goodness - and have everything else sorted out.

Now it is just a waiting game.  I am really looking forward to a relaxing family Christmas and quality time with my loved ones. 

God has been very good to Simon and I and we are both eager to see what our future together holds. 

We will keep you updated!

174 days...

So we now have 174 days left... I went shoe shopping with Mum and Sister/bridesmaid yesterday... found a GORGEOUS pair of Tony Bianco heels which I am most definitely in love with.

I am seriously struggling to buy accessories without having my dress with me...and am also having a wee stress attack about my dress...is it awful...is it this...is it that...

I've been told its normal, hopefully once it comes in and I try it on all will be well =)

But for now I cant decide whether just to buy shoes and jewelery to match the image of me in my dress that is in my head or whether I should wait and get them closer...but these shoes are really really AMAZING!!!

6 months to go!

So we thought it would be kind of cool to keep a record of what goes on in the lead up to our wedding. We have 182 days to go...and I am sooo incredibly excited!

So up until now we have booked the venue, ordered my dress, ordered one bridesmaids dress and planned guest lists, seating arangements and planned table decorations and invitations.

I think we are pretty organised but there is still so much to do. Its hard not to use wedding planning as an excuse to procrastinate from uni work; its sooo much more fun!

Using this blog we'll keep you updated on whats happening, give you gift ideas and a little peak into what its like for two young Christians preparing for their life together!
