10 months and counting

TO date..
I have actually done quite a bit.  I found a dress (and contacted the person), a cloak (deposit on it), have done LOTS of things for the reception (got to try to figure out how to post photos).  my theme is nautical and the ocean.. So, I bought lots of wood stuff from Casey's wood products,   bought some jute, glue, paint, and am having fun making my own favors, plus I am buying lots too.. Since crafting is a HUGE part of my life, I am incorporating that love into my handfasting..  and everything (well almost) is made IN maine or of course by myself (and friends/family). 
I will add the crafts to a crafty post as well as links to the other stuff I am getting.

the work as begun

the work...
ugh, as always its where the heck do I start?  Where? defently a handfasting. do I contact a planner? or do I do it myself? 

- person to do ceremony
-linens, tablecloths, silverware or plasticware
-cake artist
-recepetion
-favor bags/favors/decorations for tables
-guests
-maid of honor/best man
-who the heck is giving me away?!?!?!?  won't be my father that's for sure, to have this biggest honor one must give respect to get it.
-dress

omg.. so much to do!!! How does anyone do this alone??!?!?!?!!!?

he FINALLY popped the question!

well the planning started in July... he finally asked the question after 7 long years of being together...
  we met online on mate1.com, I kept finding this ad in my email even though I sent the link to my SPAM folder, so I took a chance. He messaged me when I was still filling out the profile. well we talked for awhile just on the site,  moved to email,  then he called me and we talked about nothing for 2 hrs. then after about 2 weeks he said ....  Do you want to meet? ....  Yes we met at a public place, as one should do meeting a stranger ... ALWAYS ...  well,  he was where I lived or I was on the island.  it was like we were joined at the hip.  So here we are 7 years later.. and we are getting married.  This is a blog to show all the work all by myself as done.  the only help is a slew of friends and the only blood family member coming to the
HANDFASTING in brooklin Maine at the Lookout in on flye point.
