Wedding Planning Kick Off!

Friday night we had a wedding kick off sleep over at Ksavera's place. It was perfect since Jon dropped off Mandy I was able to include him as well. I presented each of the girls, Jon, and Caitlyn & Ashton mine and Johnny's cards for them to be in the wedding. Our wedding party will include:

Erin and Ksavera(my sisters): Matron's of Honor
Mandy(sister-law-someday:)Bridesmaid
Kayla(good friend from work): Bridesmaid
Caitlyn & Ashton(niece and nephew): Flower Girl & Ring Bearer
Jon(brother): the Officiant
Aidan(Johnny's son): Best Man
Ryan, Sean, and Ryan(Johnny's friends): Groomsmen

Unfortunately, Johnny's brother Mitch will be over seas during this. But he will be there in spirit.


What a great girls night! I am so excited to have them all apart of Johnny's and My big day. We have so much planning ahead for the year until November 3rd, 2012. (save the dates will be coming out)

Ksavera made a wonderful spaghetti dinner with an amazing presentation. I bought each one of the girls and my mom glasses that we decorated. We will then bring these glasses to all of our wedding planning events. We toasted our decorating session with the champagne that Mandy brought then ended the night with the movie, "Something Borrowed."

The..Proposal...

So I have to give it to my family for keeping the "BIG" secret. Aidan and I had been with my family since Wednesay waiting for Johnny and Jon to drive to the beach together after work on Friday. Little did I know, during that bon fire that night on August 19, 2011 Johnny would be asking me to spend the rest our lives together.

I had a feeling something was up, but I never would had thought it was going to happen that night.

He talked to my parents way before and even showed them the ring hiding it around the house. Not only did he talk to my parents, but he called Erin & Ashley, Ksavera & Jason and Jon & Mandy to all let them know :)
   
It was perfect!!
There were a little nerves in the air has he had started with my right hand and then corrected to my left.
I still don't think I said "Yes" outloud, but me pulling him up and crying while kissing him not wanting to let him go was my answer!
Thank you to Erin for catching this moment on camera to charish the rest of our lives. 
I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with my best friend!
