We had a great Memorial Day weekend. Went to Michael's graduation party on Friday night (congratulations, Michael!), then drove up to Sedona on Saturday morning to do some serious wedding venue hunting. I'm happy to announce that we've found THE place! It'll be a small and intimate gathering with close family and friends. We checked out hotels for guests, rehearsal dinner places, and even did a cake tasting! I took tons of pics of everything, but I don't know how much I want to give away yet. (Am I supposed to keep everything a secret so it's a surprise?) We're deciding between about three Saturdays from the end of April and beginning of May (ahem, don't want to get in the way of any trips to Italy!), so we'll announce the date shortly. Now that we've decided, it finally feels real!
Here's Joseph and me at dinner in Sedona last night.
We spent the evening last night with our friends, Judy and Stephen. Went to dinner, then for desert on an outside patio, then walked in the pitch black dark along the creek.
Pics from our cake tasting. The tasting was at the chef's house. She has this huge, gorgeous commercial kitchen that smells delicious. She's been on Food Network, in magazines, and everything. And yes, we picked a cake! It's the design I had my heart set on (the one thing I just HAD to have), and I hope people don't think it's too weird. And we picked two very yummy flavors!
