After struggling to figure out which priest we wanted to witness our marriage, waiting a month to meet with him, and finding out he had to reschedule the day of that meeting because of a family emergency, we were FINALLY able to meet with him and set a date!!!
We knew that we wanted to get married right after my graduation (May 2013) and had been looking at the weekend after my graduation (the 18th). That day also happens to be my parent's anniversary, which (although my mom was excited because I was going to cater to her & put in special elements for her) never really excited me because I don't really want to share our special day (sorry, Mom!) As it turns out, there is a big event happening in the diocese that day and the priest couldn't do a wedding then. So, it was find ANOTHER different priest or change the date. To us, the priest was more important and so we moved the wedding a week back!!
This is great because it gives Ryan's current roommate more time to move out & us to get my stuff moved in so our home is all set up when we get married & I move in! It also ends up being Memorial Day Weekend, so our guests won't have work on Monday & can enjoy the wedding a little more without stressing about running home the next day. (especially our parents).
So, the big day is May 25, 2013!!!! Now we can finally go talk to florists/reception halls/caterers etc!!! I'm so excited things are moving along!!!
