Appointments.

Our meeting with Lisa from Good on Paper was pushed back until the 25th. It's too bad, I was really looking forward to it! We intend to bring our papillon with us to play with her boston terrier, which will be more fun than designing our invitations I'm sure!

I forgot to mention that we did meet with Nancy Liu Chin and she was a huge ball of bubbly energy, I had a hard time keeping up! I'm really shy, so I got a little lost, but she's a total sweetheart and I really have a lot of faith in her designs. I've been in love with them since the moment I started planning. I need to reply to her email, but Rob and I have been behind with taxes coming up and having bought our home last year, there are a lot of things we need to work out.

We have our rental and menu meeting with Rising Sun on the 20th, which I'm also nervous about because of my shyness, but I really love Heather and I feel we have a good connection. Rob is excited to be able to work with them as we really felt they understood us. Here's to hoping for good communication!


Rob and I are terrible at wedding meetings, I admit it. Between my shyness and both of us being very laid back and easy going about everything, the vendors expect a lot more from us in terms of questions and demands. We have very few, we trust people and we are easy to please. I wonder if they wish we were harder to please, or are just expecting more.

It's also hard for them to see the groom as the point of contact, rather than the bride - I always am misplacing my phone, so I rarely answer it. I'm very very shy in person and nervous on the phone anyway, so he has taken over as the point of communication to all vendors. I guess most grooms aren't as involved, but Rob and I stand as equals in our responsibilities and planning. I love him for that.
