September Round-Up

September went by rather quickly. I work extended hours during the week to assist with our busiest month so that meant less home cooking, cleaning, and blogging. I still had plenty of time for my new obsession though: Pinterest.

Here's an update on how I ended up doing with the Mastercard still burning a hole in my pocket:

• I still want to buy new clothes but have not yet.
• I have passed on the address stamp because I found something more suitable: free return address labels in our wedding colours and with the same damask style as our invitations. One of the wedding blogs I follow had a list of relevant freebies for your wedding and Vistaprint was Awesome! I was so happy to receive 200 return address labels for about $4.00 worth of shipping. Waaaaay less than a return address stamp :)
• I didn't spend any of the Mastercard money on gas, but we are in Toronto now for a few hours en route to my family's place for the holiday weekend :)
• The sewing machine, vacuum, and dancing lessons are still on my want list... maybe for Christmas.

Wedding planning is still at the fun stage :). I'm really hoping that we will find a place that will accommodate for a morning ceremony and a lunch/brunch reception. Here's where we're at so far:

Places we're still going to see within the next month or two:

• Museum London
• Ivey Spencer Leadership Centre
• Stoneridge Inn & Conference Centre and Rose Chapel
• The London Club

Places we've seen and are considering:

• Western Fair Carousel Room

Places we might go see if one of the above does not work out:

• Four Points Sheraton
• Brookside Banquet Centre
• Brescia University College
• Highland Country Club
• Hilton
• Bellamere Winery

Places we've ruled out:

• Elm Hurst Inn and Spa
• RiverBend Golf Club
• Berkshire Club
• Lamplighter Inn

Happy Turkey Weekend everyone!
