It's the weekend! What are you up to?
We're doing some "spring" cleaning/organizing today. Tomorrow I'm going dress shopping. I'm taking different people this time, my FBIL's FW and a probable GM's FW.

I hate spring cleaning, but I will probably do some of that tomorrow. Today we are going to see FHs uncle who is going to marry us to talk about the wedding.

That's pretty easy! We're planning to ask my aunt, so I was curious how you asked.

His uncle has been ordained for awhile. I'm not sure if he is a pastor or anything like that but he has done weddings before. I think it was expected to ask him.

That makes sense! I like the idea of having a family member officiate.

We are also meeting with our officiant this weekend! He is FH's cousin and is actually an ordained pastor. It is nice to have someone that really does know us instead of a professional we don't really know. I don't think I would have had a family member officiate unless they had experience though.
I am also working and cleaning the bathroom today. Tomorrow we are meeting up with a bunch of FH's family for brunch.

Talked to the officiant today. It went pretty good. FHs uncle is pretty cool. I guess we are going to be writing our own vows. So that should be fun.

I got final samples of our cupcakes for the wedding Friday - so much yum. Yesterday did the final confirmation with the florist for our order, and tried to get my MOH's dress picked up from alterations but it isn't quite ready. Today we're having lunch at a local winery with a very close friend who is also our officiant, to go over final details.
Really, I just want to stay in bed and sleep/read/sleep.

A mix of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry. We thought we wanted red velvet, but her strawberry is amaze-balls.
