Move along, nothin' to see here except wedding plans...

[LSPoorEeyorick]

So I give up. I'm starting my own wedding thread.

Starting with this news: my wedding dress came in yesterday!

[Gemini Cricket]

Yay!
:)

[katiesue]

Hurrah!

[Strangler Lewis]

I remember what a whirl it was getting ready for our wedding. But it's nothing compared to how exhausted I felt when our children were born.

[flippyshark]

So, when and where is the big event? Are you honeymooning in Florida?

Y'oughtta!

[Snowflake]

Well, congratulations! The wedding dress is a big step out of the way!

I'm outta the loop, when's the big day?

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Thanks, all!

I'm outta the loop, when's the big day?

The big day is June 9 of 2007.

So, when and where is the big event? Are you honeymooning in Florida?


The big event is in Michigan, but we'll be having a fun reception in Los Angeles, too.

And, no, we're not honeymooning in Floriday. (Lo siento!) We're honeymooning in Italy.

[Brigitte]

Now there's a honeymoon destination, how fun! We went to Disneyland ;)

[RStar]

Oh boy! Homemade gifts!!!

;)

You know, if you start a thread like this you've got to post pictures!

Congrats, and most of all have fun and make memories!!

Hee hee. Actually, I really like homemade gifts (even if they're tacky.) I understand why some wouldn't, but you're egging on the wrong girl!

And I can't post pictures! My fiance reads LoT!

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Oh, fine. I'll post a picture of something Tom CAN see.

Cake for Michigan (I'll only be revealing details about the MI wedding, since I want to surprise those coming to the CA party)

Flavors to include:
-Chocolate sour cream with white chocolate buttercream
-Vanilla bean pound cake with blackberry preserves and lemon curd
-Almond pound cake with espresso buttercream
-Banana cake with buttercream-cheese

[katiesue]

I like it - and now I'm hungry for cake. Sounds yummers.

Wedding tip, if you put a Ken and Barbie on the top of your cake, they're much larger than regular wedding top people so you have to make a much bigger cake.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Oh, fine. I'll post a picture of something Tom CAN see.Don't tell LSPE or Tom, but I snuck this picture of her trying on the dress....

[Jughead P. Jones]

Hey, you have the first piece of the puzzle right there.

(Not that I'm implying that a wedding is like a puzzle or anything to that extent, of course!)

Here's hoping that everything goes well...and if not...that you can laugh at the mishaps. ;)

Mmmmmmm...cake...

But, I have a question...what is this lemon curd that you speak of? Is it anything like cheese curd? Except that it tastes like lemon?

Or, is it more like what Little Miss Muffet was eating in the rhyme with that spider?

[LSPoorEeyorick]

OMG. Lemon curd is a creamy lemon sauce made with eggs, butter, sugar, and lemon. It was referred to in my livejournal by a wise woman as "the lemon part of a well-made lemon merangue pie." SO YUMMY.

And speaking of pie... damn, G, did you have to post that picture of the pie dress? Now I want pie.

[€uroMeinke]

Mmmmm - Wedding Pie

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

So cooooooolll... :)

[RStar]

And I can't post pictures! My fiance reads LoT!Ah, but you can post wedding pictures afterwards! We can wait 8 months......

[Prudence]

Ah, but you can post wedding pictures afterwards! We can wait 8 months......

Speak for yourself! I wanna see photos nooooooooow!

[tracilicious]

That cake is gorgeous! Sounds delicious too. Eight months sounds so far away!

[Kevy Baby]

...my wedding dress came in yesterday!Still working on my Monica Lewinsky reference...

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Our engagement pictures are in! Our wonderful photographer (NGU) has done an excellent job, and Union Station couldn't be any lovelier. (We're pretty cute, too.)

Go to www.pictage.com, look for event "heidi powers" and you'll see us there. (You'll have to become a pictage member-- but they have a good privacy policy, and if you've seen T and K's engagement photos, you already have one!)

There are a lot of them, but if you look in the "Heidi's Favorites" folder, you'll catch the cream of the crop.

[Ghoulish Delight]

Beautiful. Who knew that place could get any swankier, but you two really class the joint up!

[Snowflake]

Wonderful shots!
:snap:

[Bornieo: Fully Loaded]

Great stuff!!

[Disneyphile]

Those are SOOOOO awesome!!!! The venue is just perfect for you two - classy and classic. :)

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Thanks, guys! :blush: I'm really happy with them.

[Motorboat Cruiser]

Wow, love all the pictures! What a terrific place to shoot them and you both look so happy. Thanks so much for sharing!

[Nephythys]

I love that look on you- :)

Very nice pictures- how did you manage to get the place so much to yourselves?

[€uroMeinke]

Wow, you two look great! Awsome pics, you guys certainly do swank up that place!

[Not Afraid]

WOW! Those are really great!

[Disneyphile]

So... only about 7 months to go. You have everything ready yet because it's gonna go faaaaaaast..... ;)

*Passes the Bridezilla hat*

[LSPoorEeyorick]

...how did you manage to get the place so much to yourselves?

Well, part of it was the 10 AM on a Saturday factor. Little bit less busy then. Otherwise, we were claiming nooks and crannies that people don't generally visit (though, they ought to. That place is so beautiful!)

We have a surprisingly large amount of stuff already settled and finished (due in part to having only one solid week in Michigan for planning.)

Is there some sort of tiara crowning-ceremony for the passing of the Bridezilla hat? :D

[tracilicious]

Awesome! You guys look beautiful!

[€uroMeinke]

Heck yeah, you guys managed to hit most of my favorite nooks and crannies - if only you could have gained access to those "closed to the public" areas...

[CoasterMatt]

Beautiful pics - wonderful people in love, and a timeless setting...

:D

[BarTopDancer]

Stunning!

[blueerica]

YAY For pictures... And, I gotta ask... Did Tom steal the shirt from MBC, or is that vice versa?? ;)

Great pictures, though - I already know which ones are my favorite!

Congrats again!

[libraryvixen]

Yay Heidi and Tom! The pictures are fantastic!

[Cadaverous Pallor]

Finally saw these - awesome. :snap: I love the spot with the clock over the doorway.

[Gemini Cricket]

I love those pictures! You two are so cute!
:)

[Never Grow Up]

I think the photos came out quite well! You guys were easy to work with. Now we just need to teach Tom to look at the camera more! lol

[wendybeth]

Are you the photog, NGU? Nice work!!! (And welcome to the LoT!)

[Never Grow Up]

Yup, it was me! Thanks!
