:sad3: We're still waiting on Stage 1. USCIS accepting our petition for the second time (with attorney help). We probably won't hear back till Sept. or Nov. I hope for Nov sadly because I need the time to save up for Stage 2. due to I have to fly to Germany and help him with the meeting and packing etc and then afford to fly back together.
But we're not talking about me we're talking about your engagement! Mmmmmmmmm buttercream is da bomb if you ask me. 4 teir cake too? Might explain the cost but I guess it depends on where you go and the style, but even my step dad is shocked on the value of flour and sugar these days lol. And cool your maid of honor is having a Greek wedding? Nice! Not to be rude, but ever see the movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding? It's one of my favorite bridal related films in regards to family chaos, just because my family (though isn't greek) is extremely big and loud and in each others buisness. It's gonna be chaotic when we start planning that's for sure. A winter theme for the setup sounds elegant and beautiful too, snowflakes too? So you aiming to have your wedding this winter? That's really nice, I'm hoping we can plan something next spring if we get him here before then since I think it'll be early Jan or Feb when we get my fiance here if all things go to plan. Spring or before summer starts because I think we are hoping to have an outdoor wedding on my mom's property if not on a property in our town, but if it's in the smack dead of summer at 96 - 100F, no one will be happy and that includes me and my groom who's not accoustom to our heat waves 'yet' lol.
I admit though cake wise, I don't want it to be just chocolate, my fiance is a picky eater no different to a child, can never get him to eat his greens that sort lol! So i'm hoping I can encourage him to try different flavors of cake and icing before we settle dead set on just chocolate, surely there's other flavors he'll like that he's never tried. And raseberry with chocolate just sounds... AMAZING :dance:
PS. Sorry I'm yacking, this is the most fun I've had in awhile just talking about weddings, I can't talk with my family much about it, because then they start wanting to plan when we don't have a set date and it just makes me sad, but here it's just talking about IDEAS and not setting anything in stone yet. :thumbup:
