Good news is here. We have somewhat selected the colour scheme for the wedding. Keep your head open though because slight changes could be made at any time. We have sort of decided where these colours will be placed on the day, but there have not been any final decisions. Some will be very outwardly displayed, and some more subtly seen. Hope you like!!! Please tell us what you think.
To see the colours, go to the Benjamin Moore website. Click on 'Colours' on the top menu bar. Close to the bottom on the right side of the page please go to 'Paint Now'. This opens the Personal Colour Viewer. Choose a sample room and that will let you choose the colours listed below. On the right side under Options, click on 'number' instead of 'name'.
Here are the colours to look for:
1. jalepeno pepper ~ 2147 - 30
2. jack o'lantern ~ 2156 - 30
3. stuart gold ~ HC - 10
4. chocolate candy brown ~ 2107 - 10
5. camelot ~ CC-4

Engagement Pics!!!!
Andrew and I got our engagement pictures done a few weeks ago. Our friend Chris Schryer did them. We went to the Beach on Lake Ontario, Castro's (a bar Chris works at), and Union Station. Out of some 200 pictures taken, here are a few of the good ones.

Did You Know?
While reading my Wedding Etiquette book, I came across these two interesting facts.
1. The wedding ring symbolizes everlasting love. It's thought that the ancient Egyptians started the practice of wearing one on the third finger of the left hand - they believed that the vein in that finger ran straight to the heart.
2. The Honeymoon gets its name from the tradition of newleyweds drinking honeyed mead (a symbol of life and fertility) until the waning of the moon.
Speaking of Honeymoons, we are currently pondering over where exactly to go. We are thinking of making it a beach/jungle trip, with the beach the more essential part.
If you have any suggestions, recommendations or advice on where (or where not) to go that involves the beach and hot weather and is not too typical of honeymooners these days, please let us know! It would be great to have a few personal recommendations. Just post to the site or email us. We would also love to hear your honeymoon stories!!
Signed,
The Bride
