16 DAYS!!!

We're getting so close now I can almost taste the salt water! 😀 

Everything is coming together as far as prepping for our ceremony,  I'll be picking up my dress on Thursday or Friday from the tailor and the matching sash came in last week.

I'm still tryna figure out how to pack my makeup with the gels and liquids and aerosol regulations, but we'll get it sorted.

I wanna give a huge thanks to everyone who helped contribute to making this happen, I REALLY couldn't have done it without your help and generosity!

 I'm hoping to be able to record the ceremony and I'll share it for those who wanna watch and celebrate the special moment with us.

 

(a random pic from when we went to see Black Panther...it look like BP is standing on John's head lol)

A few accessories

Finally made the choice on our colours and getting the accessories for the big day.  John is going to look gorgeous in this vest.

THE DRESS!

It's all starting to come together!

The dress I am going to wear came in, courtesy of Kay Dub who came through with the save and an amazing gift, that I adore. <3 

I'm off to get it fitted this afternoon and will post some pics when it's done...but here's the advertising image

Confirmed!

It's official. 
We put the deposit down and we're booked in from the 12th to the 20h of June! 

Next step we're gonna confirm what times and dates they have available for the vow renewal ceremony.  Hopefully we can get in our on anniversary which is the 15th of June.

Wish us luck 🙂

 

UPDATE:  We're confirmed and will be able to hold our vow renewal ceremony on our exact anniversary date <3 

Registry and website

Today I created the registry for our vow renewal.
It's basically the cost of the ceremony package, a room upgrade, and a massage.  I gotta tell ya that massage sounds real good 🙂

I tried on my original wedding dress and it's a lil tight around the waist, I guess married life agrees with me 😀

I'm thinking of taking out all the layers of floof underneath and adding some more beading, or an overlay.  

Here's an image of the dress from before our wedding in 2009

Tax refund!

Our tax refund came thru and we're off to Jamaica for our 10th anniversary and to renew our vows!

 

We weren't sure we were gonna be able to pull it off, but we did it!
