Two Months To Go!

This morning I got this Facebook comment from my bridesmaid Kim:

Lovey......2 months from today we will be making more memories in one day that will be remembered forever!!! I am so excited for all of the events leading up:) Love you chick!
Isn't that so sweet?! I just love her.

Today is March 4th, which means that there are only two more months until our wedding!!!

That also means that everything is going to start to get crazy....but in a good way. There are so many things coming up in the next two months and I am so excited for the fun to start. Thankfully I have some very understanding managers who are able and willing to give me time off for all of the upcoming events.

So what's on the calender? Here we go:

March 10 - Wolf Lakes Park Open House


Our wedding venue hosts an annual open house event for all of their brides and grooms. Each couple gets 6 tickets to the event, so Zac and I will be bringing our parents along with us. During the open house, we will have the opportunity to walk the grounds, taste our food and alcohol options, meet and speak with different vendors, and talk wedding with other Wolf Lakes Park brides and grooms. Zac is expecting to see a few of his co-workers at the event and I hope to see my friend Rebecca whose sister, Sara, is getting married in April. (Sara is also blogging about her wedding journey. Check it out here.)

I'm super excited about the event. Not only will it be another chance for us to see the venue and take notes about last minute details that we might be forgetting, but it will be the first time that my dad has seen the grounds. Though he has seen pictures of Wolf Lakes Park online he hasn't had the opportunity to visit the venue. I'm excited to see what he thinks of the place.


March 17 - Bridal Shower #1



In just two weeks, my mom is hosting a bridal shower for me at my home. In honor of my love of owls, the theme is Feather The Nest. I'm looking forward to seeing everybody and I hope that the weather plays nice as the event will be taking place in our backyard. My mom has been very excited about throwing the shower. I often get phone calls from her filling me in on updates and ideas for the shower. It should be a fantastic party.


March 24 - Bridal Shower #2



My super sweet, amazing bridesmaids are hosting a second bridal shower for me the week after my Feather The Nest bridal shower. As most of the guests attending the shower hosted by my mom will be family, the guests at my second bridal shower will be friends from high school, college, and work. The shower is going to be an evening cocktail party. I need to get on the ball and find a dress! :)


March 30 - In Town Bachelorette



Before the out of town bachelorette weekend in April, I'm headed out for a night of fun with my girls here in town. It's sure to be a fun night of dancing and a few cocktails.


April 13 - April 15 - Out of Town Bachelorette Weekend



The bachelorette party is going to be amazing! The girls and I are headed to San Diego for some fun in the sun by day and some drinking and dancing by night. If all the girls are able to attend, there will be 6 of us travelling down south for the weekend. In addition, my brother's girlfriend, Deanna, lives in San Diego so hopefully she'll be going out with us at least one of the nights.

When it comes to taking trips with the girls, San Diego has always been our go to spot. The stories we have from our trips to S.D. are ridiculous, and I'm excited to add another one to the book. San Diego has also become tradition for bachelorette parties in our group.

Amy's Bachelorette Party 2010




Two weeks after the bachelorette party weekend Zac and I are getting married!

In addition to all these wonderful events Sarah, Amy, and I all have birthdays and little Tyler David will be born! These next two months are going to be out of control. I must remember to hydrate!
