Wedding Plans update

Ok, Christina's Wedding is fast approaching. We are less than one month away.

We have the dress and it is at the dry cleaners (Highland Cleaners) for bustling.
Still need to buy/rent/borrow a full slip (at least 4 inches thick) as the one we thought might work will not, so we are going to keep checking.
Her engagment pictures have been taken- Susan Speece of www.personalizedimpression.com did these and they are fabulous!
The photographer will be Bill Klein Photagraphy. We like his pictures and Christina and Jonathan liked him when they met.
Reception: Old Medical Center Building
Wedding: Duncan Memorial Chapel
Officient: Steve Yeager, and elder in our Home Church Fellowship
Music for the ceremony- Dr. Hannah Hall (our family chiropractor, and an amazing musician- she also teaches my three younger children piano) We love her.
Food for the reception: we are self-catering and some of the ladies from our church are bringing food. My friends Jill and Vici have agreed to "run the show" food-wise, so I can rest easy that it will be fine.
Vici is loaning us her beautiful silver for the reception.
An amazing lady, Terri from the local homeschool group has assembled all the flowers for us. She and Christina chose the flowers a few weeks ago. This was such a blessing to Christina who planned to make them all herself. This was so much stress taken away, you would not believe it.
Terri's family is going to be our "clean-up crew" after the wedding as we have to completely clean the room upon completion and I could not stand the idea of being worried about that the day of the wedding.
Food for the reception: Veggies and Fruit trays, cheese, cheeseballs and crackers, meatballs, spiral little sandwich things, shrimp dip, punch and cake.
A friend of Jonathan's family is providing the cake, which they bride and groom chose.
The rehearsal dinner is going to be at O'Charley's, pending final discussion with the manager to make sure all details are agreed upon.
Lois, Morgan, and Johnnie Elise threw an amazing "Kitchen Shower" for Christina where she was truly blessed with a great time, and many kitchen necessitites.
I am trying to WIN a Brand New Washer and Dryer for them through my blog HERE: http://www.homemaking911.com/2009/09/18/where-is-the-heart-of-your-home/ - all you have to do to help them win is leave a comment over there!
Less than one month away now!
