Well here we are, at the end of October. Seems like I was just marveling at how we only had 9 months left and now we have only 8 and some change. Chris and I are both working constantly and we don't have as much time together as we like. We hope that this part of our lives will be short and hopefully he will get a full time fire job soon so that he can quit the rest and have time to himself. His new position as a reserve fire fighter will open some doors for him we hope.
As far as wedding planning is concerned, today I met with the final florist and I was not really impressed with her. She seemed a little spacey and definitely not as thorough as the other florists I met with. I decided to go with Sally Preston-Gonzalez of Exquisite Blooms. Her taste level is similar to my own and she seemed at ease and confident. I e-mailed her today to ask her what the next steps are in booking.
We have met with one DJ, DJ Daniel Peterson. We really liked him. He knows his music and seems very thorough. What I really like is that he can mix and also add beats to songs that are older to make them seem fresh. His price is a little steep for what we were thinking we would spend on a DJ. We have one more meeting next weekend until we make the DJ decision.
We got quotes from Kenny Ernest and Tini Grey for guitarists and Tini Grey is too expensive (even though I really, really like him). I wanted to go see him live and ever the practical one Chris said "Why? If we can't afford him?" Good thinking Chris. We are going to see Kenny Earnest play at a restaurant next Thursday (date night), hopefully we like him in person too. :-). On to November!
