Where Dreams Come True

So this weekend Nick and I were talking to my parents about wedding plans including location, reception, etc and my mother mentioned how much easier it would be to have a destination wedding. Of course I jumped all over this and where did I look first? Walt Disney World! I have to admit Nick has had this idea before, and I struck it down for some reason, but not this time! We started doing some research, and all of the wedding options looked absolutely gorgeous. I fell in love! Nick has recently been requesting that we look into having our honeymoon at Disney World, so having our destination wedding there would be perfect! They plan the majority of your wedding, and the thought of just showing up in my wedding dress ready to go sounds amazing to me. Not to mention, the whole idea is just magical! What girl doesn't want her own fairy tale? There is one minor problem though...the guest list. You can only have 20 guests. After talking about it with Nick, we decided that a small family wedding would be fine (especially if we were at Disney World!). We made a tentative guest list, but nothing is final. I am going to talk to the wedding coordinator at Disney and figure out all of the small details this week. Just emphasize again...all of this is tentative and we are still considering the traditional church wedding. I have to say, though, the possibility of a Disney wedding makes my heart beat faster. I have not been this excited about planning a wedding until now! Nick and I will be doing a lot of thinking, planning, and praying about this. Whether at Disney World or at a church, I know our wedding will be wonderful! Just in case you were wondering what a Disney Wedding would look like, here are a few pictures.

The pavillion is on it's own island

We would arrive in a horse drawn carriage...by Nick's request!

As we think about all of this, we are also working on getting our engagement pictures taken. I have been calling people right and left and I have to say, I never realized how expensive photographers can be! After exhausting myself this last week, Nick and I were sitting in church when a business card fell out of my bible. The card was for a photographer in College Station...perfect right? I am guessing I picked it up some time last semester, just in case. It is amazing how God will give you what you need at the exact time you need it! I immediately called the lady, and she seemed very nice and her prices were reasonable. Nick and I are going to meet her this Friday at the studio to review more of her pictures and talk about engagement picture options. I am praying that this photographer is the one because I don't know if there are any photographers left to call in the area. Hopefully all goes well!
