Thank you for the warm welcome! I appreciate it. At this point, I have figured out what I need legally and when to start the paper work. I think we will hire a coordinator for that plus the reception. I have gotten some suggestions from others regarding where to get my hair done and activities.
I have also decided on a "theme". Theme is in quotes b/c I'm not a theme person but oh well. The Amalfi Coast is known for citrus fruit, specifically lemons. I love lemon flavored anything, candy, cake, etc. So, I'd like my bouquet to be soft yellow roses with white calla lilies. My invitations, that I will make myself because we are only inviting 17 people will have something to do with lemons and/or be a pale yellow with green accents. I would like the tables at the reception, whether it be at a hotel or restaurant (TBD), to have lemons on them. I saw some small topiearies done with lemons that were beautiful. This "theme" is pretty typical of me, not the chosing the theme but using organic material as decorations.
I will begin to try on dresses in May of this year, it will be one year out from the wedding and I think that is appropriate. I am dying to try on dresses though. I think I'd like to get a sheath style dress. I think that is fitting to the location. I would like to try some on with and without straps, just to see what I prefer.
I do have some other things researched but that seems to be the most right now.
