I can't believe I have let the blog go for so long without a post.  For the most part, Dan and I have been very busy with work and travel.  I have only had one full weekend off since Valentine's Day (kinda sad, I know).  Now we are less than 3.5 months away from the wedding.  Good news, we have been stress free in 2013 while planning the big event.  Thanks to our 15 month engagement, we have been able to tackle one decision at a time and give each facet of the wedding our full attention.  

Recently, we spent the Easter holiday in Memphis in order to take care of a few details.  Special thanks to All American Sweets in Bartlett for an extraordinary cake tasting.  It's good to know that our cake and cupcakes are coming from an actual bakery that makes everything from scratch.  Trust me, we saw the kitchen with our own eyes and it was a spectacular scene.  3 flavors await you at the reception, but we will let the exact ones be a surprise.  

We also took engagement pictures around midtown with the help of Kristen Archer.  Although the second half of the shoot was plagued by rain I still think we got some great shots before my hair completely went to a big mess.  Look for pics on our blog once editing is complete next week.

Finally we booked a block of rooms at the Hampton Inn downtown.  Jill on sales was a great help and by far this is the best choice for out of town guests with a complementary breakfast and easy walking access to Beale, the rehearsal dinner, and the trolley line.  They were also very generous with the rate for being downtown Memphis.  There are only 15 rooms available so look to our "Eat, Sleep, Play" link for details.

That is all for now.  Look for more posts soon.  I will be much more dedicated the next few months.
