MARRIED!!

Hello everyone,
   First off I want to thank everyone who made our day possible(My mother,my bridesmaids-Victoria, Katlynn, and Katie, the groomsmen-Chris, Brian, and Dan, Vespa, Keir and Pastor Betty Burlew, Breadslee Castle, Indian Castle Church, Lisa Eklund and to everyone who came!  It was such a great day, and we could not have asked for a better wedding day (well minus not being able to find the grooms ties, and other few mishaps but it went off without a hitch).  I highly recommend Breadslee Castle as a venue, they went out of their way to make us happy, had everything set up, made sure the entire day we were taken care of and did not mind me contacting them a million times to make sure everything was set.  Indian Castle church was beautiful, and perfect for what we wanted. Lisa Eklund is more every penny we paid, her photo's are fabulous and we got her for the entire day and she was willing to go anywhere to take pictures (even with a car on the side of the road that looked like mater from the movie Cars!)

It's almost here!!!

Hello everyone,
      The big day is getting close and I thought it be helpful to mention which hotels/motels have available rooms.  There is a place called the Knights Inn, that has a restaurant and is very close to Breadslee Castle.  Also there are other hotels and motels listed on the left side of the blog. Hope everyone is excited as we are!! Happy Weddings!

P.S.  Here are a few maps from the church to Breadslee Castle.

Almost two week Madness!!

Hello everyone,
     We are at the almost two week madness!  First of all Apropos on Western Ave, in Albany, where we got the beautiful bridesmaid dresses, screwed us over in the alterations.  Do not, and I mean DO NOT let them touch the dresses for alterations!!!!!!! The took regular scissors to the bottom of 2 of the dresses and just cut them randomly.  The last dress was never even altered and they tried to tell us that they did alter it and let it out over 3 inches.  I don't know about you but who lets a dress out over 3 inches?? Well my mother I took the dresses away from them and then took them to a wonderful seamstress.  She is a lovely older lady from Germany that could not believe what they did to the two dresses.  So long story short if you get a dress or bridesmaid dresses from this place Apropos keep on their tails and don't let them hem or alter the dresses.  So a wedding would not be complete without a few hiccups along the way, but make sure you keep an eye on everything-DON'T ever, EVER assume that these wedding venues have everything under control. Okay Happy weddings to all and see you all in a little over two weeks!!!!
