Hi everybody! This is Tim, and it's my first post on this blog. It feels like we have the hardest part of the wedding settled (the location of the actual wedding and the reception hall). My next order of business is choosing the tuxes and finalizing my side of the wedding party. It's always hard to narrow down the field from so many deserving people. I hope to have that figured out soon.
The other big thing we have to do is pick a cake. I think Sara and I are both looking forward to that process. I'm sure we'll manage to suffer through all the taste testing. We're also narrowing down our choice of centerpieces and such.
Now that the most difficult part of the planning is done, we're very much looking forward to the day itself.
Thanks for reading, and have a great day!

Lots of wedding updates
Now that the "new home-owners" flurry of things to do is starting to subside, Tim and I have been able to get cracking on some more wedding planning. Many new developments:
We have booked our reception hall. We spent a lot of time touring facilities and examining the websites of places that host wedding receptions in the Madison area, and ended up choosing the place just down the road. It's five minutes from our new house, which will hopefully be a help in getting everything set up. Here is a link to their website if you want to take a look: Cherokee Country Club.
I found a dress! It's beautiful and I am very happy with it. My mom and sister were troopers and took me all over town searching for it, and it was totally worthwhile.
Four of my wonderful friends and family have graciously agreed to stand up with me in the bridal party (Tim too, but he can tell you about his side): my sister Kelly as maid of honor, and stepsister Lori, cousin Scarlett, and great college friend Kori as bridesmaids. Huge thanks to all of you - it means a ton to me to know that you will all be with me on my wedding day.
Speaking of family that will be there with me, my aunt the Honorable Tia Fisher will be officiating the ceremony. Huge thanks to you as well for being there at such an important time.
All we have left to do now is find a photographer, a cake, some decorations, transportation, a million other things that I can't think of right now... phew, better keep going!
