Let the Planning BEGIN!

It didn't take long for people to start asking when we were getting married...in fact, the first such question came approximate 2 hours after we got engaged! Luckily, we'd discussed where we'd like to get married about 6 months in to our relationship so that was easy. Once one has narrowed down the geographic area of the venue, and if the area is small and remote like ours is, then finding a venue is easy as their aren't many too chose from! A couple of calls, emails and a venue visit by my folks and the deposit was all but paid.

Finding a date on the other hand was slightly more tricky. We obviously want as many our family and friends to be at both of our weddings - the "white" wedding as well as the "traditional" wedding - but finding dates suitably close yet the right way around (the "white" wedding must happen first I've now learned) was a challenge.

But...all that is now done and dusted, the dates are set and the venue booked :-) Now for the planning to begin!
