Details Moving Forward...

We've selected the following sites for our wedding and reception...

Wedding

St. Ann of the Dunes (in Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore)

433 West Golfwood Road

Beverly Shores, Indiana 46301- 0727

www.st-ann-of-the-dunes.org

Reception

Waterbird Banquet Center

558 Indian Boundary Rd

Chesterton, IN 46304

www.waterbirdbanquets.com

The Banquet Center is attached to two hotels, a Best Western and a place called the Waterbird Lakeside Inn - which will most likely be our hotels of choice for the wedding. Easy access to the rooms from the reception, so in case you imbibe a bit too much, you can get back to your room easily and safely. There is also a Hilton Garden Inn about 3 miles away, so that is an option as well. We'll post more soon...

We are working on scheduling it for the weekend of May 17, 2008. More details will be posted when we have finalized them.

We're VERY excited to have this stuff out of the way!

Bruce's Wedding Party Set...

Who in their right mind would want to be in the wedding party of
the idiot to the right?

So, my wedding party is set, even though we haven't finalized a date for the shindig yet... Anna is still working on finalizing hers, and we're talking about readers, etc., so more info will be forthcoming on that stuff. However, thought I would post my party just so people know...

Best Man:

• Joel Hammond (my brother)

Groomsmen:

• Pete Grasso (friend from college and Fraternity brother)


• Don Morrow (friend from college and Fraternity brother)


• Todd Bailey (friend from college and PR mastermind)

Should be a good time, and we're excited that plans are starting to get underway. We're traveling up to the Michigan City, IN area, where the wedding will take place, the weekend of March 9 to look at potential reception locations, so that will be exciting.

Check back often for more updates... Until the next time...

Engaged!

Well, on Saturday, February 10, Anna and I became engaged. It happened in the afternoon at our apartment, and Anna was VERY surprised. We are extremely excited, and we will be posting on here with updated information as we make decisions. Check back often for new photos, comments, etc. about the wedding and the planning.

Below are some photos that were taken immediately afterwards...
