"Our nuptial hour draws on apace..."

Obviously David and I have not updated this blog in a while, but things have been happening and new information demands a new post! We are now about 6 months and 10 days out from the wedding, and a lot of things have been decided!

We now have an official wedding party:

* Maid of Honor: my fab sister Bethany

* Bridesmaids: My best friend Leslie, my soon-to-be sister-in-law Lia, and my English comradess-in-arms Laura Nix.

* Best Man: David's brother Brian

* Groomsmen: David's best friend Jonathan Floyd, Todd "Admiral Sandecker" Hower, and Eugene Cuevas, offical ninja of the wedding party.

* Flower Girls: Heiress to the WinShape lands Addie Grace Trejo, and Olivia Cuevas, Eugene and Jennifer's precious little girl.

* Ringbearer: Darrell Trejo, keeper of the Rings of Power (yes, he has hobbit hair!)

We have also found a minister to perform the ceremony (Thad Blount of David's family's church) and a Wedding Director. Flowery miracles will be performed by Mr. Fred, florist to the rich and famous (he did the flowers for the Sweet Home Alabama wedding scene!). We have a great caterer, Mrs. Pat Hyde, and an awesome cake baker, Barbara Cameron, who is going to bake my strawberry-creme-filled bridal confection and construct David's Tower O' Cupcakes. [Tower of London? The White Tower of Minas Tirith? -- DNG] We have secured hotel rooms and I have even chosen bridesmaid dresses (coral). Basically, thanks to my mom, we are on the ball!!

In a future post, I will place a link to our wedding website at theknot.com, which will provide valuable information for our guests (times, directions, registries, etc.). Until then, readers, be sure to watch the countdown clock on David's blog [And on this one! -- DNG] to count down the days with us until that momentous day!

[I find this post's title specially apt, though I'll not spoil the puzzle by naming it! -- DNG]
