Ya, i wrote this on the wedding blog, but due to lack of comments i'm gonna write it here too :-p
So jer and i met with Pam and Wendy last night. Pam is the lady who did my family’s portraits. She did an amazing job with those. We talked to her and her partner (they do weddings together to get as many angles as possible) and saw some examples of things. They give you about 250 proofs in a 3.5X5 proof album with the package. You can also get these amazing albums, but they are a bit pricy. Digital proofs are also a little pricey (400 bucks), but i’m not sure we’d need those. Jer and I both really like these ladies. Some of their work can be seen at

It’s 1/3 down, 1/3 30 days before and 1/3 when you get the proofs. They are really sweet ladies, and talking to them about the event was fun. They were even excited for me! So ya, we are going with them.
I feel even better about this decision today. My mom still has 2 checks of mine (for insurance + phone) so she said i could just use that money for the downpayment. I'm excited! So it'll be 900-10% (so 810), and then 1/3 of that down (which is about $268). My dress is in too! So i'm going to see that on saturday, if you want to come with let me know (ang, shar, etc?) My mum is gonna meet whomever up there and get my sister measured finally too. I'm so excited! :-D
Now, jer i need you to email me back the invite list, and mum i'm gonna send it to you, can you please add addresses etc. that you know? And then send it back to me and i'll send it to patty. Hopefully after that we may send it to jer's dad dave, and then back to me and jer for final decisions. I'd like to get an invite list squared away. And then i need to decide if it would be cheaper to print our own invites, or to get them made. I think if we can find the stationary at like joanne fabrics or something, then use my laser printer to print on them with black ink we'd be fine. THat printer is real fast, so we could crank them out ;)
ANNNNNYWays, i'm in the lab today. I really need to start studying for neuro. That's my goal today and tomorrow, to get a really good start on neuro. Then saturday morning study more, saturday night too...and sunday all day until church, and then ridiculous amounts on monday (my exam is tuesday morning). So ya, long weekend ahead :-/ lol
