Getting closer...

This was a big week for us in making strides closer to the wedding day. On the heels of finalizing our menu at the Aegean with my family, we applied for our marriage license at the Brookline town hall on Tuesday. If you've ever seen "Monsters, Inc." and remember the character, Roz, you can get a pretty clear picture of the folks we encountered at Town Hall. They are royally underwhelmed by life!

Yesterday we met with my wonderful aunt Sue, who is performing our wedding ceremony! She helped us finalize all the details. This is Sue (so you'll recognize her on the big day!)



Also, Ben picked up our wedding rings. We were supposed to pick up the rings on Friday night, but on his way over to my office, Ben ran into our designer who was heading back out to her shop in Somerville to meet with us. She had my ring, but not Ben's, so they both came up to my office and I got to look at my ring, but we agreed Ben would go to the shop on Saturday to pay and pick up both rings in a fancy box. We are so pleased with how the rings turned out! I particularly wanted a band that would work well with the beautiful antique passed down through Ben's family. Our designer worked with us to create a perfect fit. Jade Moran designed our rings and if you want to check out some her amazing jewelry, visit her website (http://www.jademoran.com/)

This week we're finalizing a few more details and, you know, going to work and such :)
