Right now I'm printing up our invitations. They look so good! They are simple and clean and exactly right. I'm so excited :) I'm really happy with my font choice, too. All my peeps in newspapers will know what I mean!
Unfortunately they take forever the print. My printer is really fast, but I am supposed to just put one sheet of paper in at a time. The instructions say you should feed the paper in yourself to prevent jamming. Well I can't manually feed paper into my machine because of how it's set up. So I'm doing five at a time. Works great, but is taking forever. Dumb.
I'm hoping to get the reception cards done today, too. But will likely take a little break in between.
Last night Britt presented the readings to me and Eli. She did not disappoint! I gave her the job cause she's so super smart and reads poetry for fun (nerd). She picked out some really great stuff and I really like three of them.
One is written by an unknown author but talks about old love and the real beauty of marriage comes at the end of a person's life. It's really beautiful.
The second is "Wedding Song" by Bob Dylan. How perfect.
The third is "The Irrational Season" by Madeleine L'Engle. It's much more philosophical about marriage and how big of a step it is.
I told Britt this is how I wished all the wedding planning went. Someone presents me with several options and I pick my favorite! It was great. I read a couple of the readings and said "That's great, but no."
So, snaps for Britt!
Tomorrow we're meeting with the officiant. Should be interesting since we aren't having readings from the Bible and took out most, if not all, references to God. We'll see how that goes...
