Let's get this show on the road!

Before I delve into my wedding plans and random babbling about pretty things, let's start with an introduction, shall we?

You can call me Miss Disney Bride. I will be marrying Mr. Disney Groom next November (yes, 2012 - not 2011) at the Walt Disney World resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. With more than 20 months to go until the big "I do," I'm sure you're wondering why I'm here talking about wedding plans that will surely change over the course of the next year and a half (plus). Aside from being Type A, I also have an incurable need to share my wedding plans with as many wedding lovers as possible. I can't help it - I just love planning this shindig!

And I have more done that most people do at 12 months out. Namely:

• I bought a dress and shoes
• I picked our venues
• I picked a color scheme
• I designed our Save the Dates and a rough draft of our invitations
• I designed and ordered our welcome bags
• I bought our toasting flutes
• I DIY-ed our cake topper
• I DIY-ed a wine box for the ceremony
• I started buying my bridesmaids' gifts
• On that subject, I already asked my bridal party using (you guessed it) DIY-ed cards
• I did a site visit of our venues
• I scoured sample menus and picked our top contendors
• I found our photographers and put a hold on our date
• I took engagement pictures with Mr. Disney Groom with said photographers
• I picked out (and put on layaway) my wedding ring
• I designed and launched a robust wedding website
• I designed and mailed our first wedding newsletter

So basically, I'm way ahead of the game here people. I'm also in a holding pattern until this summer when I can actually confirm our date with Disney. How will I fill the time you ask? By gushing about all of the above (and more) via this blog.

Welcome!
