Engagement Announcements, Photos, Website and many more

All righty then folks, yesterday evening my bridesmaids (minus Abby) + my FH went out and did engagement photos, so we could get the engagement announcements out. Despite the fact that I went to the eye doctor a few hours before and had severe aversion to the light (thanks to the eye dilation), we managed to get some really cute pictures.

They will be posted on the website, which btw we FINALLY have a domain purchased and setup and stuffage like that....you can find it at http://www.dudekschubachwedding.com. Right now all it says is "test", but by Sunday evening it should be, hopefully, if all goes well, up and running. Brian and Chris have been wonderful in helping us achieve the ability to have such a customized site and not a basic one.

But you, lucky blogger readers (which probably right now, are few) get the honor of seeing three of the photos before the website launch in Brandon and I's engagement announcements, which we are hoping to get sent out sometime within the next week.

We made three versions to see which one we like best but since we are having a hard time figuring out which one we will be printing the last two and randomizing which goes in the envelope.

Today we are going cupcake tasting at BabyCakes, which is in downtown KC. Their website is what inspired the Neapolitan theme (well, not the EXACT website, but the products they sell). So that will be fun.

We are narrowing down the date...but that also includes narrowing down the places. We have a list and will start contacting either this weekend or early next week to get some prices...which will lead us to the date, which currently hovers somewhere between May 23-June 20, 2009. Yep, a WHOLE month. We still both like the 13th, but the 20th would rock also. It has been suggested to make it a long weekend, which would be the 23rd of May (happens to be Memorial day weekend), but that also PUSHES for everybody to be out of school and all that jazz.

Oh yeah, do you think it is strange that I way to put a heel size limit on my bridesmaids??

EDIT: Oh yeah, we finally have a full wedding party. Brandon decided on his last two groomsmen, his friend Stephen (Steven) and Matt.
