Well, things are coming along nicely. We have a location selected and held for both the ceremony and reception, the stately Carolina Inn.

Carolina Inn Entry

Its a very ‘Southern’ feeling old Hotel on Chapel Hills’ campus. I have yet to see it in person, but it sounds like it will work wonderfully. Our ceremony will be held in one of the courtyards around the hotel. It looks fantastic, and having UNC’s campus as a background for pictures should be excellent as well.

Club

We are scheduled for March 31st, at 5:30pm. Reception is directly following in one of their parlor rooms. The wedding is going to be small, with immediate family, grandparents, a handful of close friends and loved ones. Its been a struggle deciding how to work out the guestlist, but it seems that keeping it small and intimate makes the most sense. Looks to be somewhere around 25 people all in all.

For those of you who are unable to come, I promise lots of great pictures, stories, and visits very soon!

Mollie has her wedding dress and shoes already, our photographer is selected and on board, and we have an officiant scheduled to do the actual ceremony. We are registered primarily at Macy’s, and also at Williams and Sonoma and Target, to cover all of our wish list. We have a fantastic friend designing our wedding invitations (Thanks again Jayna!), and have selected chocolate brown and light green as the general color theme.

Right now it feels like we have the lion’s share of our big decisions covered, and its a good feeling. I know there will be a pile of other little things to take care of between now and April…we shall be busy!
