My girlfriend and I had been
dating for more than two years when in February
2008 we took a walk around a lake we
frequently visited and I asked her if she would
marry me. We planned a wedding for August 2008
about the date of our anniversary. Planning a
wedding is a lot of work so she stopped working a few
months before the wedding day to focus on the many
wedding details. But despite her efforts, in
the weeks prior to our wedding on occasion it was
necessary to make arrangements to meet with the
photographer, decide on some detail related to
the reception, go to the court, etc. After work we
met several times for premarital
counseling or discussed aspects of the wedding
plans. It was neat being together planning all this
but somewhat overwhelming at times. We would like
to thank Cesar and Lucero, Karina, my mother and the many
friends who helped tremendously with
the numerous wedding details and whose help greatly
facilitated our wedding day. Planning a
wedding is a tremendous undertaking and we hope the
notes under "articles" from our experience will
help you in planning the wedding of your
dreams.
