Hey everyone! You've probably been saying to yourselves, "Boy, I wish Bruce and Anna would post some new information on their Blog so I can get an update about how the wedding planning is coming along... It's been nearly a month!!"
Well, your dreams are about to come true, because we have some info. to share below...
1. We got the DJ signed up and ready to go. Over the next few months, we'll be picking the majority of our songs, but a sampling of what you'll hear is below:
Stayin' Alive
Three Times a Lady (yes Seinfeld fans, this song will be played, except I will not be driving a mail truck like Newman was when he ran over a sewing machine and it burst into flames...)
Jesse's Girl
Pennsylvania Polka (unfortunately not the Polka Boy version...)
2. The florist is booked, and Anna has had a couple meetings with him to talk about what we want... I have stayed out of those discussions, as I fear me saying "those look nice" will only lead to me being ridiculed later on because they don't go with the colors or something...
3. Anna has decided on the bridesmaid dresses, and her wedding dress has come in to the bridal shop. This is very exciting. She keeps asking if I want to see it, but I have done a good job of deflecting the conversation because I am not allowed to see it prior to the wedding. (See, I do know a little bit about this stuff...)
4. We have purchased our honeymoon flights and have reserved our rooms. We are going to St. Martin, French West Indies, located about 190 miles southeast of Puerto Rico... It's going to be great! Now, all we need are our passports!
Next Steps:
We are working on getting our marriage license, our passports, our wedding rings, figuring out where we'll register, the invitations, as well as some other small things like the limo, the cake, what time the wedding and reception will take place, etc.
Everything is coming along, and Anna has been doing a great job! I pitch in when I can, but to be honest, she is running the ship, and I am like a little Cabin Boy on the yacht that she is the captain of...
Anyway, hope to talk to you all soon!
- Bruce

Woohoo!!! Sounds like things are coming along. Now not only do we have the wedding celebration to look forward to but pictures from St. Martin. Have a blast!
Anna got me a Frommer's Travel book about St. Martin for our anniversary yesterday, and so we are working on figuring out what we're going to do on the honeymoon. We're staying on the part of the island that is known as the gastronomic capital of the island, as it has a lot of GREAT restaurants.
The other thing that we learned was that the taxi drivers union has such pull that you cannot rent a car at the airport - you have to go "across the street to the small kiosks" to rent a car unless you just want to pick one up at your hotel... However, they say "look out for long lines..." Nice...
Anyway, it's going to be fun!
