It's nearly six months until our Wedding -- September 22nd, 2012. Let us not freak out. We have made a lot of progress; and by we I mostly mean Jenn. During the bulk of the early Wedding prep stages I was busy working on my film NICOTINE. But the month of March, and beyond, will be different.
We won't be the type of people that make a mad dash to figure everything out within the final month or so before the wedding. March will be busy with us working a lot and my movie progress, but also in terms of the wedding. While we still have plenty of things to work out, the following have been accomplished / nearly accomplished / decided.
- The Dress has been purchased -- don't worry, I am not allowed to see it until Jenn walks down the aisle
- Samantha's dress has been purchased.
- The Wedding Site -- Cowles Conservatory / Palms Room, is a lock for ceremony and reception.
- Design of the room during the ceremony -- basically figured out.
- Chowgirls Catering -- the food has been figured out.
- Registries. Amazon and Target.
- Wedding favors -- need to be built; will be awesome.
- Photography -- Knickerbocker and Vokracka -- sounds like a law firm.
- Center pieces (for tables) -- these are coming together. Need to be constructed.
- Save the Date (sent out)
- Flowers -- they'll be the most amazing things you've ever seen.

- First Dance song has been selected.
- Cake. Hannah Botzet will be constructing the cake.
- Honeymoon location picked.
What's Left:
- Suits for Myself, Corey, Rick and Chris -- this task will be worked on in May. I will shop around soon, mostly to find prices and colors.
- Dresses for Joan and Jan.
- Who will officiate the Wedding? Still waiting to hear back from Jorge Garcia and Jeff Fahey.
- Liquor -- we haven't decided on how much we're gonna let you all drink.

- Corey's Best Man Speech. I don't know what he's gonna say, but Corey said, "I gotta make 'em cry."
- Wedding invitations need to be designed and constructed -- this will need to be done soon.

- Tables / chairs rental -- we're waiting to hear back from the caterer, who has a floor-plan that's great for the space available at Cowles.
• Due to the space at Cowles, specifically the Palms Room, we'll only be allowed to invite 75 guests. We're looking at keeping the wedding fairly intimate, inviting our family and closest friends. We realize that we have about 34,000 people that want to go very badly, but it just won't work out.
I'm sure there are things I'm forgetting, but this is everything that came to me at the moment.
