photography and flowers

yesterday was a superly productive day on the wedding planning. We found a photographer! We're meeting with another on Wednesday, but it's mainly just to compare his pictures, prices, and service too. I'm excited. Because I thought that me, being so picky with pictures, and not having seen good photography here yet.... it was going to be next to impossible to get a good photographer.... but, the Lord allowed us to "stumble across" a great guy who's studio is in a little corner behind some other shops who also does camera repairs..... and since Kristen's camera needed repairing..... that's how we found him! pretty cool huh? anyways... I'm excited about that.

THEN... we also found an awesome florist!!! I had been to another place where I had shown pictures of exactly what I wanted etc.... and the lady just said " well, let me tell you what WE usually do..." in other words... "I don't care what you have in your pictures I'm going to do it the way we always do it.".... not too convincing that they will do what i ask them. SO... I went somewhere else, and the lady we found there, Monica, was just wonderful!!!!! SO I'm super happy. I think in the past 2 1/2 weeks we've found a ceremony/reception site, a florist, and a photographer!
