Hi Ladies!
No progress yet - I am still waiting to hear back from BGD that they've finished the new band to ship in my current ring. I'm really not in a rush or feeling anxious like previously because I have my diamond and current engagement ring to keep me company.
As for other details... I will be sending in the check to book our wedding venue on Monday!!! I have been going back and forth... back and forth between a Saturday 6pm or Sunday 6pm wedding.
In the end... I have decided on a Saturday venue despite the extra cost over a Sunday wedding. Also the idea of getting married on 11/1 and the day after Halloween sounds really appealing. FH and I have a tradition of always taking halloween and the day after off and spending the day together having some beverages and passing out candy to the little kids (and carving pumpkins of course). Now it will be more of a reason and at the same time... spend our anniversary together every year! I still haven't decided on the guest list count but I think I might end up inviting about 100 guests and planning 70 or so to show up due to travel and destination reasons for many.
Also talk about being super kind - my employer asked if I wanted an advance on my paycheck so I could secure the deposit for my wedding venue. They were so sweet about knowing how important it was for me. Now if they only felt the same about a raise so I could help cover the additional costs of a Saturday venue. Haha.
