Vegas Trip numero dos

Over this past weekend we embarked on our second wedding planning trip to Vegas. I think we actually got everything accomplished that we needed to do and managed to find leisurely fun too!

While we were there, we stayed with Jon and Haley again! Oh how I love them and I'm glad I'm getting to know them since they are so special to Ryan. Jon and Haley always make sure we are taken care of and have some fun while we're visiting so this time we went to the desert to makedelicious foil dinners and shoot. Good times were had by all!



My favorite aspect of wedding planning has been and will remain cake testing. mmmm. Our cake is going to be divine! We are doing a 3 tier ivory and ballet slipper pink cake with yummy buttercream frosting and a peony topper. Our flavors amazing: coconut joy--coconut cake with a coconut/dark chocolate chip frosting layer AND cinnabuns--cinnamon cake with caramel frosting layer. We got to sample these and they are heavenly! Oh I can't wait!

We also picked out our yummy entrees and linens for the reception at Dragon Ridge. This process was a NIGHTMARE. Since my colors are navy and blush pink (flowers and mother's dresses only) and the chairs and carpet at the reception site are a gold hue, I was truly afraid of it looking like a Boy Scout Blue and Gold Banquet. After a lot of debating and mind changing, we finally settled on making all the linens ivory with champagne table runners and adding small touches of navy. Hopefully, this will look good. Cross you fingers!
