282 days to go....

Well, not even a month into the engagement and we are definitely on the ball with all our planning. We have the wedding date set, the venue and planner booked.

I figured I had with a couple months spare to chill out before planning the rest of the exciting things for our big day! naïvety is a bitch! Just to be safe, today i drew up a check list to make sure I was on top of things and realized how much there still is to do before entering chill-out mode.

With the wedding set on the gorgeous island of Ko Samui, Thailand, we need to give all our gorgeous guests some time to plan, not to mention reserve accommodation, send out invites and well plan some sort of theme to get my planner started! So after a few days of google-ing, I have have finally got ideas for our invites, and well truth be told... it didn't stop there. I went a little BrideZilla crazy... I know what dress I want, what the colour scheme will be, and where I would absolutely LOVE us all to stay! So much for taking things slow:)

But I suppose that just wouldn't be Toby and I! I'm so excited that this is all coming together so nicely, and the best part of it is, I get to have a 10 day holiday with the people I love most in the world! Best wedding present ever!!

Thought I would share a little of my excitement... I took advantage of an empty house tonight and did a little colour montage:)

A touch of France...

My future hubby and I are going on a date tonight... there's this little French bistro here that I absolutely love! The thought was to go, and get out the house, and to talk about things other than work.

With the whole economic climate the way it currently is, and not knowing what on earth is going on at work we seem to have let an entire week go by spending night after night sending off CV's and perusing job websites, both uncertain of where we stand with our jobs...

So I am a little excited, I get to put on a dress, get prettied up and go talk about life...and well anything else except for work!
