7-7-7

Here's the scoop on our 07/07/07 wedding! This couple booked with us so far in advance, they received their packages for almost a quarter of what we book for today! Lucky ducks! With just about everything regarding the big day, they totally lucked out! A very animated couple, they're both educators from Chicago with ties to Seattle. Three cheers for Emily + Adam! 07-07-07 Lovebirds!

Venue: Skanosia Ferry Boat
DJ: Sounds Unlimited


A little funny business in the groom's suite....



The ceremony incorporated Jewish values and several readings from family members, just beautiful!


Bill assisted me yesterday, he scored a ton of awesome shots from the balcony!

MORE funny business with the groom & his groomsman~

Here's a happy closing shot with my lucky pair! All the best!

Price tag: $7,707.

And finally : at the risk of sound weak and whiney, I have to just share my thoughts here: At some point I feel silly writing about all wedding & marriage stuff when Ray and I have yet to get hitched!!! We're still struggling to set a date, a place, a theme, a guestlist. Juggling all these things is getting a little nutty for us, we're not up for reinventing the wheel. Everyone asks what our plans are and we don't have answers! We have NO idea. In fact, we have a few other priorities right now, like purchasing a new home/office. We decided to buy first THEN get married (do it all backwards!)

The crux: With all the family splitting off into different directions next year for international travel, my bro is going overseas for 7 months, I feel like things are just working against us. If not next year, then 2009? I mean, we CAN wait, but I just wish there was an easier way! Its either before March or after October! Major bummer.

I'll just ask if anyone has any brilliant ideas? I feel like eloping at this point. Only that I really want to celebrate with family. (insert frustrated sigh here)

So enough of my gripes, because as they say on Flip this House : Save the drama for your mama.
