Hello Family! I’ve been meaning to get on here and do this for a long time! My apologies.
So, Drew and I have been engaged for over two months, and it has really flown by! We have got some things for the wedding figured out and I thought I’d share them all with you. We’ve set July 19th for the big day (or “doomsday” as the boys and Drew call it) :). We’re going to have the ceremony outside Drew’s Mom’s house, Gloria is her name, in Gray, Tennessee at 7ish. That’s about forty miles South West of Abingdon, where we used to live. Then we’re going to have the reception at a place called The Story Telling Centre in Jonesborough, TN. I’ll try and find some pictures actually so you can see it.
We have also booked a photographer and caterer (all thanks to Gloria by the way). We’re going to have a dessert buffet; cakes, pies, fruit, cheesecake, brownies and our favorite, tiramisu. I’m really excited about that. I’ve bought my dress, it’s ivory and cranberry…red. 🙂 I’ve asked Andrea and Audrey to be two of my bridesmaids and we’ve been looking at dresses – black.
So yeah, for some of you this is probably too much information! 🙂 I’ll answer any other questions you guys have of course. I think I’ve shared all the important stuff.

Those first two pictures are the reception. We have the outside courtyard and that little inside room. The other two pics are of Gloria’s house. We’d get married right there in front of the doors and set up chairs on the front lawn.
Wow, you have gotten a lot accomplished for being out of the country. The wedding site and reception site look really great. I am asking for time off as soon as I post this.
Very nice!
Oooooo! It looks so nice! Are you going to go bare foot 😉
We’re looking forward to it.
Wow! This is so exciting. I can hardly wait! By the way, I enjoy reading about all the little details. 🙂
I like the places you chose, too
Exciting!
Looks nice.
Cool!
It looks pretty!!!!!
