Cake

Cake tasting today...yum. We've been cake experimenting at home without a picture of what we want exactly. The Cake Boutique was too expensive, but it helped us form an idea for a cake. I have a cake vision...

Any ideas about the frosting though? I think fondant is too sponge-like. Casey doesn't like the taste of buttercream.

I'll try to post more often now. We've been doing a lot of wedding research over the last couple months but not much decision making. We still don't technically have a ceremony site or reception site booked yet. We have one in mind but its not ours until we put a deposit down. Strangely though, they only accept cash/check. Who has thousands of dollars laying around? I'm a little apprehensive not seeing it in person too, but I'm sure it will all be fine.

THE DRESS!

I'm super excited to say that I have my wedding dress! I guess all I needed was having my mom in town. Surprisingly enough, I got it from David's bridal. Although I didn't like my first visit there, it is one of the few places in Tucson. We actually have driven 2 hours to Pheonix and 2 hours back a couple times to try to find "the one". I liked Suzanne's bridal customer service; they were so nice there that I wanted to buy my dress there. Unfortunately I didn't find a dress that I couldn't live without. (Plus it was out of my budget range.) Today, I saw a future bride trying on a dress and loved it. Then I tried it on and loved it even more! It is nice to have a decision made and a little scary to be locked into something for sure. I thought about posting the picture online for you all to see, but I think it looks funny on the model. Plus I don't want Casey to see it until our wedding day.
