Joan & Christian

If you were a member of the wedding party, check your e-mail. Anyone else, call or e-mail us for the link and password if you’re interested.
Of course, this does not let any of you off the hook - we still want to see any and all pictures you might have from our wedding!
Yep, we’re gluttons. […]

After consulting with the Early Childhood Education Center (preschool) at Joan’s church, we have engaged 3 babysitters to watch the kiddos during the reception. All 3 actually work for the ECEC and have plenty of experience caring for youngsters, so parents can rest assured their little ones will be in good hands. Babysitters will arrive […]

Joan and I held an impromptu meeting a few days ago, and left the camera running:

Music by my brother’s old band, Seven Days.

We’ve been getting a lot of questions about the time our reception starts, and we apologize for not getting back to all of you sooner! We’ve finalized our times, and we’ve decided on a five o’clock cocktail hour, with dinner served at six. The reception page (in the tab above) has been updated to reflect […]

To save a little money (and ourselves from rambling DJs) our plan is to hook up a computer to some speakers and just use iTunes playlists for the reception.  Which also means we have complete control over what will or will not be played.  Many thanks to our friends Janice and Jason who gave us […]

We decided on our menu and added that info to the Reception and Children’s Room tabs.  There’s also a new tab - Sunday Lunch - with info about getting together one last time while everyone’s in town.  Enjoy!

We’ve finally decided on wedding day transportation! Between the ceremony and reception, our bridesmaids and groomsmen will be chaufferred in a beautiful stretch Lincoln towncar from Bogey Hills Limousine. Unfortunately, by the time we got around to looking into limousines, the other car we were interested in from Bogey Hills was already booked. So the […]

Saturday we spent about an hour at JRL Jewelry Co. choosing wedding rings out of a catalog.  Joe, the owner, is ordering a few samples this week.  We plan to go back this weekend, try the samples on our own hands, and make a final decision.  Because neither of us wears much jewelry, especially flashy […]

I’m going to be a model!  Well, sort of, but I think it counts.  A little over a month ago, we attended a St. Louis Best Bridal wedding show and signed up to be in their model pool.  I couldn’t believe they actually called me, but last Friday I visited The Ultimate Bride to try […]

Those of you who are really observant may have noticed a change on our Vendors page.  We have been working with Bella Pictures with the expectation of booking them for our wedding photography, though we haven’t signed a contract yet.  They are a national photography “shop” of sorts that promises a 100% satisfaction guarantee and fully […]
