The last time.

Morning all, I'm on the train again but today is special as its the last time that I will be. It's a strange feeling as it doesn't feel like this is the last time I'll be going to work in the city, but thankfully it is because I am exhausted! For the first time I actually just slept on the train from drouin to sandown which is about 40 minutes worth and I've woken up feeling pretty shotty...hungover feeling almost.

Anyways back to the wedding. The photographer has been tentatively booked for our wedding day, we both felt very comfortable with him and he offered great prices and we get all photos on disk to print which is great, his name is Jordan of melbourne and I recommend that you check him out, once we pay the deposit the booking will be finalized.

The reception entertainment has also been tentatively booked, one of the best priced dj's/mc that we have come across! He also comes with a great recommendation from a close friend so we are hoping all works out well, his name is Darren Watson, and I can't wait to talk to him about all our song choices! This will be fun!!

The wedding florist is Prue Evans, a friend of one the fiancées work colleagues! I have sent off my requests and hopefully get a quote later in the week of what sort of price range we will be looking at. She has done some wonderful high profile weddings so I am excited to see her work and I'm sure it's going to be stunning!

Lastly we are still deciding on wedding cars, whether we need them or not, what we can get for a good price and also considering just hiring some luxury style commodores or statesmans from budget or Avis for the day, as this is considerably cheaper than some of our other options.

As mentioned the celebrant has been booked, Mick Jungwirth, one of our school teachers from back in the day, someone we know, someone we trust and definitely someone with a good sense of humor to make the day a great one for everybody.

I have contacted a few invitation companies for a quote for invites, RSVP cards, and wishing well cards, and I have decided that place cards will be the bomboniere (which I have a surprise which I leave for the day on how I do that one) and programs I will also do myself.

Everything is slowly but surely starting to fall into place, with bridesmaid and my dress shopping coming up in a few weeks, as well as another expo, I think by the end of feb, we will know exactly what we want, have our budget set and then we can get into the nitty gritty of it all.

As well as this planning I also get to start my new/old job back as a lab tech this week and I am so excited but I did want to say that my opportunities at ninemsn and planet surf were just what I needed to get back out there, lovely team environments, good processes and great confidence building, so to all those I worked with at these two places thank you for helping me get my career mojo back!!

Well it's almost time to get off the train for the lucky last time to go to work at the pretty stylish channel 9 building! Let's hope it's a great day for everyone!!!
